Acts 2:1 - 2:4
ActsSteve Gregg
In Acts 2, Jesus' promise to baptize his disciples with the Holy Spirit is fulfilled during the Feast Weeks, also known as Pentecost. The coming of the Holy Spirit marks a turning point in the history of the church, as it becomes a general possession of believers and results in a vibrant and living community. While speaking in tongues may occur after being filled with the Holy Spirit, it is not the most important evidence; instead, the fruit of the Spirit is a better indicator of spiritual health.
