Jesus had told His disciples that "When the Comforter is come, Whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of Truth, which proceeded from the Father, He shall testify of Me." (John 15:26). This means that the Holy Spirit moves about and communicates. He was sent by the Father to bring believers into a close personal relationship with Jesus Christ. God created us with a desire to experience that kind of relationship with Him, and He sent Jesus to provide that opportunity. Jesus, in turn, gives us the Holy Spirit to fulfill that desire and to enable us to experience a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Because the Holy Spirit is God, He is omnipresent (everywhere at the same time), He is omniscient; (all knowing), and He is omnipotent; (all powerful). He is also loving, forgiving, merciful, and persistent. When people sense things about God "in their heart" or conscience, it is often the work of the Holy Spirit prompting them towards God or leading them to a closer relationship with God. In light of these truths, we should treat the Holy Spirit as a Person and understand that He is the infinite living God directing the Christian to a real purpose of being Christ-like. I hope that you enjoy your Pentecostal roots that go all the way back to the first church and all through the New Testament writings. The Word of the LORD is, "Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit, saith the LORD of hosts." (Zachariah 4:6). Love in Christ, Pastor Phil

On this Sunday morning, you and I have the opportunity to celebrate the promise made by Jesus Christ, and this is the promise of the Father in heaven. Jesus asked His disciples to tarry in Jerusalem, until they be endued with power from on high. This is the giving of the Holy Spirit and the birth of the early church, as we have the power to teach and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. Just as we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, and Easter, ( the resurrection of Jesus), we also recognize the importance of celebrating the descent of the Holy Spirit from the Heavenly Father through Jesus Christ. We are certain of the ascension of Jesus to the right hand of God, as we are witnesses of the power of God through the Holy Spirit. The men and women on this day of Pentecost, were changed significantly, and were no longer living in fear and in hiding. The early church's beginning was inspired by the Holy Spirit. It was when the disciples obeyed the voice of Jesus and went to Jerusalem and there, they had great joy and would worship the LORD. These early saints of God were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God for being part of this great move of God, which had been promised. Our whole world has been changed by Jesus Christ ascending to the Father and sending back the Holy Spirit, Whom, He said, He would send. Church body, please take advantage of this great power of the Holy Spirit, and let Him empower your Christian life, where you can be part of the great commission of our LORD in these last days. Become a Christian who wants more of God's promise, which I believe comes as you draw closer to God and His presence in your life. Love in Christ, Pastor Phil
