Acts 2- The Gift of the Holy Spirit

When the day of Pentecost came, they [the disciples] were all in one accord and in one place. Then suddenly there came a sound from heacen as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. *Note- the Holy Spirit Spirit is the one who gives us utterances.

Now at this time, there were devout Jews from every nation under heaven, living in Jerusalem. When this sound of the Holy Spirit's utterances were heard, the multitude of Jews living in Jerusalem came together and was astonished because each one heard the apostles speaking in his own particular dialect. This was amazing because the apostles were all from Galilee. Some mocked the apostles and called them drunk.

But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice and said to them, Men of Judaea, and all who dwell in Jerusalem know this and hearken to my words:

This is what was spoken by the prophet Joel;
And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I WILL POUR OUT OF MY SPIRIT UPON ALL FLESH: AND YOUR SONS AND YOUR DAUGHTERS SHALL PROPHESY, AND YOUR YOUNG MEN SHALL SEE VISIONS, AND YOUR OLD MEN SHALL DREAM DREAMS. And I will show wonders in Heaven and SIGNS IN THE EARTH; blood and fire, and vapour of smoke: the sun shall be turned into darkness, and th emoon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: And it shall come to pass, that WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED.

Then Peter went on to remind the men that they had taken and by wicked hands had crucified and slain Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved by God and a man whom God raised up, having loosed the pains of death; because it was not possible that he should be held by death. Additionally, he went on to say how David spoke concerning Jesus. And how David ending by saying THE LORD SAID UNTO MY LORD, SIT THOU ON MY RIGHT HAND, UNTIL I MAKE THY FOE THY FOOTSTOOL.
Therefore, Peter spoke let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that SAME JESUS WHO YOU HAVE CRUCIFIED, BOTH LORD AND CHRIST.

Now when the multitude heard all this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren what shall we do?

Then Peter told them to Repent and be baptized every one of them in the name of JESUS CHRIST for the remission of sins and they shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Then they that gladly receied his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about 3,000 souls. They continued steadfastly in the apostles teaching and fellowship, and in breaking of bread [holy communion] and in prayers.

And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signes were done by the apostles. They sold their possessions and parted them to all men, as every man had need. They continued daily living in one accord. Praising God and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved. Amen.

*The Holy Spirit is an outpouring of God's Spirit onto man. The Holy Spirit shall enable you to: 1) prophesy and/or 2)see visions and/ or 3) dream dreams.
