Confirmation/baptizm of the Holy Spirt

[Tigger45]

Just wondering, does the Charismatic Catholic Renewal believe the sacrament of confirmation as being synonymous with the baptism of the Holy Spirit?

No.

"Because baptism in the Spirit is an act of the risen Lord, we cannot say that everyone prayed over is baptized in the Spirit. That would be like turning the praying over into a sacrament."
(International Charismatic Catholic Renewal Services, ICCRS, "Is Baptism in the Spirit received only through the laying on of hands in the Life in the Spirit Seminar?")​

"Baptism in the Spirit refers to a life-transforming experience of the reality and presence of the risen Lord Jesus and of the Holy Spirit and his gifts. It is not a sacrament itself, but a coming to life of the fundamental graces of the sacraments of baptism and confirmation."
(ICCRS, "Is Baptism in the Spirit for everyone?")​
