The Arrival of the Holy Spirit

Church Life                            “The Arrival of the Holy Spirit”                                                Acts 2:1-13 In Power (vv.1-3)    In Communication (vv. 4-11)    In Reaction (vv. 12-13)   Eph. 5:17-21 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. 18 And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit, 19 addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart, 20 giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, 21 submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.   1 Cor. 14:23 If, therefore, the whole church comes together and all speak in tongues, and outsiders or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are out of your minds?   What does a spirit-filled church look like?   A Spirit-Filled church is generous   A Spirit-Filled church exhibits Spirit enabled power not just to DO witnessing, but to BE witnesses for Christ.  A Spirit-filled church is scripture saturated   A Spirit-filled church is prayerful   A Spirit-filled church is worshipful and joyful
