Pentecost is a biblical event that all too often gets lost among the “biggies” like Easter and Christmas. The truth is that all three events are interwoven together in the Bible. While the birth of Jesus and His victorious resurrection from the dead (following His crucifixion) are central to the Gospel story, Pentecost is the guarantee that Jesus is doing the same ministry today as He did 2000 plus years ago.

We need the power of Pentecost to thrive in places where hope seems to be a commodity in short supply. The guarantee we have with Pentecost, is that Jesus is continuing His ministry to this very day, with signs and wonders. That guarantee provides us with eternal power to do the eternal business of saving the lost at any cost. We can do the work of the ministry of Jesus Christ by providing compassion, education and transformation with the power of Pentecost.

Live as if Christ died yesterday, rose this morning, and is coming back again tomorrow.
