This Sunday, we begin the season of Pentecost. I know, I know, Pentecost is supposed to be a day, and not a season. But we want to view the entire scene, not just the tongues descending, but Peter preaching and the people changing. So we should spend a few weeks hearing the entire story.
The gift of the Holy Spirit is a gift for the church today. The people saved at Pentecost were saved from the political and spiritual oppression of their daily life. People can find the same salvation today and receive the gift of the Spirit.
As you prepare for Pentecost, read the story of the tower of Bable and hear why and how human language divides us (Genesis 11.1-9). Land, ethnicity, and language may divide us; God's Spirit can unite us!
