e upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall
overshadow thee: wherefore also the holy thing which is begotten shall
be called the Son of God" (Luke 1:35).

2. HE WAS ANOINTED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. "And Jesus, when he was baptized,
went up straightway from the water: and lo, the heavens were opened unto
him and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon
him; and lo, a voice out of the heavens, saying, This is my beloved Son,
in whom I am well pleased" (Matt. 3:16, 17). "And it came to pass in
those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized
of John in the Jordan. And straightway coming up out of the water, he
saw the heavens rent asunder, and the Spirit as a dove descending upon
him: and a voice came out of the heavens, Thou art my beloved Son, in
thee I am well pleased" (Mark 1:9-11). "Now it came to pass, when all
the people were baptized, that, Jesus also having been baptized and
praying, the heaven was opened, and the Holy Spirit descended in a
bodily form, as a dove, upon him, and a voice came out of heaven, Thou
art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased" (Luke 3:21, 22). "And
John bare witness, saying, I have beheld the Spirit descending as a dove
out of heaven; and it abode upon him, and I knew him not: but he that
sent me to baptize in water, he said unto me, Upon whomsoever thou shalt
see the Spirit descending, and abiding upon him, the same is he that
baptizeth in the Holy Spirit" (John 1: 32, 33).

3. HE WAS LED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. "Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit
into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil" (Matt. 4:1). "And
straightway the Spirit driveth him forth into the wilderness" (Mark
1:12). "And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan,
and was led in the Spirit in the wilderness" (Luke 4:1).

4. HE WROUGHT MIRACLES BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. "But if I by the Spirit of
God cast out demons, then is the kingdom of God come upon you" (Matt.
12:28). "But if I by the finger of God cast out demons, then is the
kingdom of God come upon you" (Luke 11:20).

5. HE OFFERED HIMSELF UP THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT. "How much more shall
the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself
without blemish unto God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to
serve the living God?" (Heb. 9:14).

6. HE WAS RAISED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. "But if the Spirit of him that
raised up Jesus from the dead dwelleth in you, he that raised up Christ
