Introduction
Pentecost was the first time the FULL gospel was preached.
- Luke 24:36-53 – Jesus told them to wait in Jerusalem until they would receive power from on high.
- Deuteronomy 16:16 – The Jews were to assemble to observe the feast.
- Acts 2:9-11 – People from all nations were gathered to hear the gospel.
- Acts 2:1-13, 23
- Acts 2:38-41
- Jesus had already preached much of the good news, but on this day the full picture was finally put together.
We can all be part of this.
- Acts 2:39 – “all who are far off” may be referring to Gentiles
- Ephesians 2:11-13
It was not popular them; it is not popular now.
- Acts 2:41; 4:4 – This was a good number of people, but still just a fraction of the total number gathered.
- Acts 13:45; 14:2; 17:13; 18:6; 19:9
