Pentecost Preparation: An Introduction to Shavuot

Apostle Natasha discussed the upcoming Pentecost, explaining that it occurs on the 50th day after Passover and is relevant today as an appointed time for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit. She examined Acts 1 and 2, focusing on Jesus’s appearances to the apostles after his resurrection and the command to wait in Jerusalem for the Holy Spirit. She explained the Greek words for “wait” and “power,” distinguishing between executive power (exousia) and miracle power (dunamis) that would be received by the disciples.
