John 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send him to you. Luke 24:49 Behold, I send the promise of my Father on you: but tarry you in the city of Jerusalem, until you are endued with power from on high. Act 2:1-4 During the arriving of the day of Pentecost, they were all together in one place. & suddenly a sound like a violent rushing wind came out of heaven, & it filled the whole house where they were sitting. & there appeared to them dividing tongues as of fire & SAT upon each one of them. & they were all filled with the Holy Spirit & began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit was giving to them to utter forth.—Pentecost means 50! Exactly 50 days after Christ had been resurrected, the first Christians were celebrating Pentecost & the Holy Spirit SAT upon each of them! This is the beginning of the Church! When we receive God’s Spirit following repentance, that Spirit begins a process of spiritual transformation in our life. Love Mel
