Same here - and I did not mean it was always taught as salvific, just that it was a distinct occurance even like repentance and baptism are separate things. Sometimes it was sort of a simultaneous thing too... he was baptised and got the revelation of one God "right there in the water".

While not salvific it was seen as adding credibility to one's experience.

In similar fashion if one spoke in tongues for a long time (like hours or days verses a few minutes), he was said to have really gotten a "good dose of the Holy Ghost", and revered as super spiritual.

I am a firm believer in the Old Paths

Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945
