Acts Chapter 2 is one of the most amazing chapters in the Bible. It reveals the falling of the Holy Spirit upon the twelve apostles and the changing of a crowd of unbelievers from all over the world into faithful, dedicated Christians. In this article, we will discuss these events with particular emphasis on the sermon that converted the unbelievers.
The Baptism of the Holy Spirit
It was fifty days after the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. The Holy Spirit suddenly fell on the twelve apostles. It had quite an effect on them. They all began to speak the languages of the people gathered there to celebrate Pentecost from all over the world! It definitely got the attention of the audience! Peter had to convince the audience that they were not drunken, but it was in fulfillment of a prophecy from Joel 2:28-291:
And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
