In this episode Pastor Shine Thomas will be taking us through Acts 1:4-8. It is in this passage that Jesus gives the promise of Pentecost.

Important points to keep in mind:

Pentecost is a major theme in Acts 1-2.

"On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit." ~ Acts 1:4-5

Waiting for the Holy Spirit is more important than going out and sharing the gospel on our own.

We cannot succeed in Christ's mission without Christ's power.

God's work is too big for us to do in our own power. He never calls us to do anything by our own power.

In Acts 1:4-5 we see a wonderful example of the One God in Three Persons, which we call Trinity.

The promise of the Holy Spirit belongs to all God's children.

The idea of being baptized is to be immersed or covered over in something. The disciples of Jesus would be immersed in the Holy Spirit. The disciples will be influenced by the Holy Spirit.

Disciples ask about the restoration of Israel. They are confused about the end times.

Jesus has inaugurated the Kingdom of God (Matthew 4:17)

The consummation of the Kingdom will come (Acts 1:7)

The Spirit is given now to prepare the world beforehand (Acts 1:8)

The Spirit is a foretaste of the age to come

The Kingdom of God has already come but not in its fullness. In the meantime, we have the taste of the Kingdom of God through the Holy Spirit.

Key verse of Acts: "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." ~ Acts 1:8
