How Do I know I am saved?: Changed - Baptism in the Holy Spirit to Baptism of the Holy Spirit
* A acceptance of Gods saving grace
* A [[Baptism]]
* A [[Baptism in of the Holy Spirit]], at which point you [[Speaking In Tongues|speak in tongues]].
It may be helpful to consider that at the point of conversion the Holy Spirit takes up residence in your life (in other words God accepts your acceptance of salvation and comes to dwell in you. At this point you begin a process of [[Sanctification]] of being set apart for doing the things God has in store for you. This is the next step after your [[Salvation]].
So how can we know the Holy Spirit is resident in our lives (i.e. the seal of our salvation)? Simply put, we and/or others should expect to see the fruits of the Spirit in our lives namely love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control from [[Galatians]] [http://www.bible.org/netbible2/index.php?book=gal&chapter=5&verse=22&submit=Lookup+Verse 5:22]. The desire to be more Christlike in our lives is a sign of the [[Holy Spirit]] at work within us and so an assurance of our salvation.
