Pentecost

2:1, “When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place”. What is, the day of the Pentecost? This is a Jewish feast which pilgrims from across the world come together to celebrate. Also, it takes place on the fiftieth day after the Passover event. This occasion is acknowledged as a holiday where no facilities or labor is offered. The event is a celebration of God’s gift of the Ten Commandments to Moses from God. Afterward, one can see how the day of Pentecost became part of the…

Could mentorship be a main underlining theme throughout the Books of Acts? In my opinion, yes! According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, mentorship is defined as “the guidance provided by a mentor, especially an experienced person in a company or educational institution.” After the combination of my years in CCD and a Catholic middle school and high school, I have come to the conclusion that there are many mentors in the Bible. Jesus can be seen as a mentor to many, or even all, Christians.…

he will be defeated he is trying his best to destroy as much as he possibly can before his time is up. It would be ignorant to pretend an evil realm or form does not exist after reading warning like that in the Bible. People in the west are desensitized to the idea of a spiritual realm. This theology brings light to a reality that too many people are oblivious to. Knowing there is a spiritual battle going on, spurs people on to prepare for the battle. This idea of a spiritual realm emphasizes…

Believing in the words of Jesus the disciples united in prayer and on the day of the Hebrew celebration called Pentecost, the fulfilled promised came forth when the Holy Spirit fell on them and gave them the power they would need to begin the great church and minister the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The impact and effect of the Holy Spirit on the lives of the disciples of Jesus was immediate and persuasive. The Holy Spirit gave them the ability to speak in foreign languages to spread and proclaim…

I’ve always thought it was neat how different numbers in the Bible meant different things. It seems that God is trying to reveal something or give us a deeper understanding of scripture with their patterns. For example, the number 7 seems to symbolize something being “completed or finished” as well as divine perfection. The first use of seven in the Bible was found in Genesis 1 when God created the earth in 6 days and rested on the seventh and set it aside as the Sabbath, the holy day of rest…

Disney broadcasted the movie Pocahontas in 1995 in theaters all around the United States, what wasn’t broadcasted, though, was the truth of Pocahontas. Disney should be responsible for insulting all Native Americans and falsely depicting history. First off, Disney should be punished for rendering views of the English making it look like the English were kind and loving to the Natives; in reality, they were the opposite of that. In “Pocahontas Does Educate – Falsely” Tom Roderick states, “The…

Pentecostalism is not a church in itself, but it is a movement that includes many different churches incorporating the gifts of the Holy Spirit as a normal part of the “Full Gospel”. The Pentacostal movement began around 1901, a time when church officials declared that the church had gotten way from the bible being understood in a literal sense and started believing the Word of God to be taken in a figurative sense, instead. Freeonlinebible.org states that upon its emerging in the early…

Today, June 4th, 2017. Pentecost. We stand amazed at the power that is found in the worship of Christ. He has bestowed upon us the love that has immersed and filled our soul with the Holy Spirit from on high. When the sound of the rushing wind hit, it was but an instant when all the house shook. No sooner than that happened cloven tongues of fire set upon each of their foreheads, and they began to speak in a different language. Mass confusion? no but the power and glory of God filled that…
