Religion & Spirituality
In the Book of Acts Chapter 2 is written the record of the coming of the Holy Spirit. Acts 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. I would like us to pay particular attention to verse 1. "When the day of Pentecost had fully come." There had been many days of Pentecost in the history of the Israelites and Jewish people, but it had never fully come until the Spirit was poured out from on high. Pentecost could never come in completion until Passover had come in its completion. All of this is in connection to the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus came, died, was buried, arose from the dead, and ascended back unto the Father. "He shed forth this," Peter declared in the Book of Acts. The Holy Spirit came at the ascension of the Lord Jesus Christ to fill the believers with the reality of Christ. "He that is joined to the Lord is one Spirit." On the day of Pentecost the Church of Jesus Christ was born and joined to Him, to know Him in HIs fullness. Glory to God!
