Hi to all and Acts 1:5 reads , For John indeed BAPTIZED ( WITH ) WATER , but you will be BAPTIZED with Holy Spirit not many of these DAYS AFTER !!

Please notice the Greek text does NOT read the Holy Spirit because the Greek ARTICLE " THE " is not in the Greek text , so check and see !!

The Greek article will always point to a SPECIFIC THING and when you see just HOLY SPIRIT by it mself as in Acts 1:5 it points to the POWER OF HOLY SPIRIT !!

This means there are 2 BAPTISMS here WATER and the POWER OF HOLY SPIRIT !!

In Acts 1:5 the Greek word BAPTIZED / BAPTIZO is in the AORIST TENSE and means that John's baptism has been com[plete and the INDICATIVE MOOD means it is a FACT !!

The last part of this verse SHALL BE BAPTIZED / BAPTIZO is in the Greek FUTURE TENSE , WHY ?

John's WATER BAPTISM is the NEAR VIEW and Israel will be set asie very soon as written in 2 Cor 3:13-16 , Isa 6 and in Luke 13:6-9 !!

Why the NEAR VIEW , because Christ will appoint a new apostle , named Paul as recorded in 1 Cor 9:17 , with a new message as also seen in Col 1:25 and 26 !!

Then when Rom 11:25 has been fulfilled , Israel will be saved and verse 26 will begin the time of Jacob's Trouble , is the FAR VIEW !!
