The Age of the Spirit

The Coming of the Holy Spirit

¹When fthe day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. ²And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like ga mighty rushing wind, and hit filled the entire house where they were sitting. ³And divided tongues ias of fire appeared to them and rested1 on each one of them. ⁴And they were all jfilled with the Holy Spirit and began kto speak in other tongues las the Spirit gave them utterance.

⁵Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven. ⁶And mat this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one was hearing them speak in his own language. ⁷And nthey were amazed and astonished, saying, “Are not all these who are speaking oGalileans? ⁸And how is it that we hear, each of us in his own native language? ⁹Parthians and pMedes and qElamites and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, ¹⁰Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, ¹¹both Jews and rproselytes, Cretans and Arabians—we hear them telling in our own tongues the mighty works of God.” ¹²And sall were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?” ¹³But others tmocking said, “They are filled with new wine.”

³²This Jesus aGod raised up, band of that we all are witnesses. ³³cBeing therefore dexalted at the right hand of God, and having received from ethe Father fthe promise of the Holy Spirit, ghe has poured out this that you yourselves are seeing and hearing.
