Pentecost
Students may read Acts 2:1-4 or entire chapter
After Jesus’ final appearance and ascension, the apostles knew they should remain in Jerusalem until the outpouring of the promised Spirit. On the day of Pentecost, it arrived with power. “They were all together in one place” when they received the Spirit, which filled them with joy and spiritual strength. The disciples immediately went out to preach the good news to all who were in Jerusalem for Pentecost. Many new believers, from many lands, were baptized that day.
Discussion Questions
The promised Spirit has long been known as the Holy Spirit. We also know it as the Spirit of Truth. How did the disciples realize it had come? Did anyone else experience the Spirit on that day? What does the Spirit of Truth do for us now?
