More about the book
The book delves into the theological debate surrounding the timing of Spirit baptism in relation to conversion, specifically addressing the Samaritan case in Acts 8. It contrasts Dr. James D. G. Dunn's view that Spirit baptism occurs at conversion with classical Pentecostal beliefs that it follows conversion, evidenced by speaking in tongues. The author, Zarley, supports the Pentecostal perspective for the Samaritans and Gentiles, attributing their Spirit baptism to Peter's role. He argues that post-Peter's ministry, all believers receive the Spirit at conversion, except for a unique situation in Acts 19.
