Pentecost Sunday
from His24-7.com · host Rev. Joel D. McMahon III
Acts 2:1-21 On Pentecost Sunday we remember God’s great gift to us following the death of his Son in our place on the Cross. It is the Gift of the Holy Spirit. Yet so many Christians reject the gift of the Holy Spirit – either out of false assumptions of fear and ignorance, or simply out of misinformation - missing out on a wonderful and crucial gift from God himself. The Holy Spirit, given first at Pentecost is more than a contagious positive attitude or an emotional form of Worship. He is the Promise of the Father that the disciples were told to wait for in Jerusalem. He is the 3rd person of the Trinity. He is the Helper promised by Jesus. "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. "I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you. (John 14:15-17) As we read on in the New Testament we see that every new believer was filled with the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the Promise of the Father to every believer, not just way back then, but also today.
