💁🏻 Concept: Pentecost
Pentecost was a Jewish feast celebrated fifty days after Passover, originally marking the firstfruits of the harvest. But following the ascension of Jesus, Pentecost became the day the Holy Spirit was poured out in new covenant fullness and power on the disciples (Acts 2). This event marked a dramatic turning point in redemptive history—transitioning from the old covenant work of the Spirit to His new covenant ministry. Pentecost was the Spirit’s empowering of the church for witness, mission, and transformation. What was once promised was now fulfilled—God dwelling with His people, not just among them.
1. Passover Feast - Death of Jesus
2. Feast of Unleavened Bread - Burial of Jesus
3. Feast of Firstfruits - Resurrection of Jesus
4. Pentecost - The giving of the Spirit
