For me, Pentecost means two things:

1. The Church's birthday. All believers were in a mysterious way made into one body in Christ. Paul says:

“For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, slaves or free, and have all been made to drink into one Spirit.”

1 Corinthians 12:13

2. Pentecost also means that all believers can receive the power of the Spirit to be a witness of the gospel through the baptism with the Holy Spirit.

Jesus said:

“For John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”

Acts 1:5

“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

Acts 1:8

Let us embrace the challenge and each day strive to witness to at least one person – in the power of the Holy Spirit.
