The Coming of the Holy Spirit (1)

Acts 2:1-21, 37-41

The disciples were in the city. Other followers of Jesus were there, too. There were 120 people in all. They met and prayed in one place.

Then, the disciples heard a noise coming from the sky. It was like a strong wind. The noise filled the place.

Then they saw little flames of fire. The fire looked like it was burning on top of their heads.

Next, they were all filled with the Holy Spirit. They began to talk in other languages.

The Holy Spirit helped them to praise God in these languages.

At that time there were a lot of people in the city.

They came from countries all over the world.

They also heard the loud noise and went to the place where the disciples were.

They all listened. They were surprised.

They said, “How can we all hear them talk in our own language?”

Then Peter stood up and said in a loud voice: “Let me tell you what all this means.

The prophet said this would happen.”

He said, “God will send his Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will speak God’s Word. Your young men will see visions. Your old men will have dreams. God will do great things and save all who ask for his help.”

23 of 43

Then Peter said: “You must be sorry for your sins. You must turn back to God. Be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. God will forgive your sins. Then you will be given the Holy Spirit.”

“The Holy Spirit is for you and your children. It is for people all over the world.”
