Hi

If i have a friend who is a true brother in Christ, can he baptize me?

Is it ppssible for a Christian to baptize themselves?

When does a believer receive the holy spirit, at the point of accepting Christ as Lord a saviour? Or at baptism?

I don't see why you another Christians couldn't baptize you. To answer your other question, the Holy Spirit is received upon baptism.

Not in my case, I had the indwelling of the Holy Spirit a good few years before I was baptised. You shouldn't generalise.

Good.
In Australia or somewhere in the south pacific (Indonesia?/ Asia?) last century, (I heard/read) there was such a revival (like in ACTS),

so many people cried out with Godly sorrow and repentance - a few were immersed in the water and then directed to turn and immerse others , and so on- with (as far as known(have not heard the follow up testimonies yet)
new disciples newly immersed turning and immersing others as directed, until all were immersed in Jesus's Name.

THEY do not, and did not,

practice "social distancing" ....

INSTEAD, THEY HEAL PEOPLE !!!!

Same as JESUS !!!

You can believe that, but it's not what the Scriptures say.

You have at best misinterpreted the scriptures.

Infant 'baptism' doesn't count and many people receive the Holy Spirit before or even without true baptism. Lots of people in denominations that count Christening an infant as baptism may be born again and Spirit filled without a full and true believer's baptism. Like I said before please don't generalise.

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. (Acts 2:38 KJV)

Notice he didn't say repent and receive the Holy Spirit and you shall be baptized

I'm sorry but I won't argue with you. I know what happened to me and lots of other people I know. So let that be an end to it unless you want to call me a liar. God can't be put in a box with a 'one size fits all' label and each of us has our own unique and individual experience of him.

Tell me how you were filled with the Holy Spirit at your baptism as it always good to hear another person's testimony.
