Ryan Welsh Ryan Welsh 1 year ago in Pentecost

It was the morning of Pentecost, and Jerusalem buzzed with curiosity. Seven weeks had passed since Jesus’ crucifixion, dashing hopes that He was the Messiah. Stories of His resurrection circulated, but the disciples, who had seen Him alive, had no doubts. He had instructed them to wait in Jerusalem for power from on high (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4-8).

On Pentecost, as the disciples gathered, a great wind filled the room, and flames appeared on their heads. They began speaking in various languages, drawing a crowd. Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, delivered a powerful sermon explaining these events, leading to 3,000 baptisms. This marked the beginning of the Church, open to all people.

Peter’s sermon emphasized that God had poured out His Holy Spirit, fulfilling Jesus’ promise that the Spirit would guide and inspire them. He explained that through Jesus’ death and resurrection, salvation was now open to all who repent, are baptized, and receive the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:14-38).

This event signifies the transformation of lives in preparation for the Kingdom of God. It highlights the importance of the Holy Spirit in renewing our minds and lives, writing God’s laws in our hearts (Hebrews 8:10). Pentecost is a reminder of God’s plan to call people of all ethnicities into a relationship with Him (Romans 9:24; Galatians 3:14).

The early Church showed great love and unity, sharing everything and supporting each other (Acts 2:41-47). This spirit of brotherhood and communal support continues to be a hallmark of the Church today.
