- And you think, "okay. maybe i just do this once."
- 00:09:50.074 --> 00:09:50.975
- Maybe i just do this once." but that's not really
- 00:09:51.042 --> 00:09:52.076
- But that's not really how the verb is written.
- 00:09:52.143 --> 00:09:53.711
- How the verb is written. if you read it later in greek,
- 00:09:53.778 --> 00:09:55.146

- 00:09:58.383 --> 00:10:00.118
- With it the understanding that this will keep on happening.
- 00:10:00.184 --> 00:10:03.354
- This will keep on happening. it's like when you
- 00:10:03.421 --> 00:10:03.921
- Go to the doctor
- 00:10:04.022 --> 00:10:04.422
- Go to the doctor the doctor says to you,
- 00:10:04.489 --> 00:10:05.089

- Through security. i flew with some friends
- 00:12:59.463 --> 00:13:00.097

- But you can actually still make it through security
- 00:13:14.312 --> 00:13:16.414
- Make it through security without your id.
- 00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:19.116
- Without your id. it just takes a lot longer.
- 00:13:19.183 --> 00:13:22.019
- It just takes a lot longer. they had to take them
- 00:13:22.086 --> 00:13:22.687

- "hey, did they," -- you know, so you can imagine
- 00:13:28.092 --> 00:13:28.826
- You know, so you can imagine where we went with all of that.
- 00:13:28.893 --> 00:13:29.694
- Where we went with all of that. that was -- it was a blast.
- 00:13:29.760 --> 00:13:33.164
- That was -- it was a blast. they got through,
- 00:13:33.231 --> 00:13:35.299

- But some things are just taking a little bit longer,
- 00:13:44.809 --> 00:13:47.311
- Taking a little bit longer, 'cause you're still trying
- 00:13:47.378 --> 00:13:48.012

- It's coming day ten. they have no idea.

- They have no idea. you know when you ask
- 00:15:24.875 --> 00:15:25.676
- You know when you ask for a package from amazon,

- But they keep on waiting. they keep on waiting.
- 00:15:49.633 --> 00:15:50.134
- They keep on waiting. they keep on waiting.
- 00:15:50.201 --> 00:15:50.634
- They keep on waiting. and then, verse number 1 says,
- 00:15:50.701 --> 00:15:52.269
- "when the day of pentecost came,
- 00:15:52.370 --> 00:15:56.007
- "when the day of pentecost came, they were all together
- 00:15:56.073 --> 00:15:56.674
- They were all together in one place.
- 00:15:56.741 --> 00:15:58.876
- In one place. suddenly a sound like
- 00:15:58.943 --> 00:15:59.810
- Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violet wind
- 00:15:59.877 --> 00:16:01.479
- The blowing of a violet wind came from heaven and filled
- 00:16:01.545 --> 00:16:04.048
- Came from heaven and filled the whole house where
- 00:16:04.115 --> 00:16:04.749
- The whole house where they were sitting.
- 00:16:04.815 --> 00:16:05.983
- They were sitting. they saw what seemed
- 00:16:06.050 --> 00:16:07.018
- They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire
- 00:16:07.084 --> 00:16:07.952
- To be tongues of fire that separated and came
- 00:16:08.019 --> 00:16:08.753
- That separated and came to rest on each of them.
- 00:16:08.819 --> 00:16:10.187
- To rest on each of them. all of them were filled with
- 00:16:10.254 --> 00:16:11.322
- All of them were filled with the holy spirit and began
- 00:16:11.389 --> 00:16:13.224
- The holy spirit and began to speak in other tongues
- 00:16:13.290 --> 00:16:14.125
- To speak in other tongues as the spirit enabled them."
- 00:16:14.191 --> 00:16:16.093
- As the spirit enabled them." so now, understand this.
- 00:16:16.160 --> 00:16:17.661
- So now, understand this. when luke, the writer who --
- 00:16:17.728 --> 00:16:19.096
- When luke, the writer who -- luke, the same one who
- 00:16:19.163 --> 00:16:19.897
- Luke, the same one who wrote the gospel of luke,
- 00:16:19.964 --> 00:16:20.865
- Wrote the gospel of luke, also wrote acts.
- 00:16:20.931 --> 00:16:21.966
- When he is writing this,
- 00:16:22.066 --> 00:16:23.768
- When he is writing this, he is not trying to start
- 00:16:23.834 --> 00:16:25.202
- He is not trying to start a denomination.
- 00:16:25.269 --> 00:16:26.170
- A denomination. luke is not trying to start
- 00:16:26.237 --> 00:16:28.172
- Luke is not trying to start some certain movement.
- 00:16:28.239 --> 00:16:29.407
- Some certain movement. what luke is trying to do is let
- 00:16:29.473 --> 00:16:31.108
- What luke is trying to do is let us know what is happening.
- 00:16:31.175 --> 00:16:33.044
- Us know what is happening. "we were in the room."
- 00:16:33.110 --> 00:16:34.045
- "we were in the room." they're telling me
- 00:16:34.111 --> 00:16:34.912
- They're telling me that they were there.
- 00:16:34.979 --> 00:16:35.613
- That they were there. they're up there praying.
- 00:16:35.679 --> 00:16:36.714
- They're up there praying. they're all together.
- 00:16:36.781 --> 00:16:37.815
- They're all together. there's about a hundred
- 00:16:37.882 --> 00:16:38.582
- There's about a hundred and twenty of them in the room.
- 00:16:38.649 --> 00:16:39.850
- And twenty of them in the room. and all of a sudden --
- 00:16:39.917 --> 00:16:40.918
- And all of a sudden -- mary was there,
- 00:16:40.985 --> 00:16:41.819
- Mary was there, peter was there,
- 00:16:41.886 --> 00:16:42.486
- Peter was there, a bunch of people are there,
- 00:16:42.553 --> 00:16:43.721
- A bunch of people are there, but then all of a sudden,
- 00:16:43.788 --> 00:16:44.889
- But then all of a sudden, there's like the blowing
- 00:16:44.955 --> 00:16:46.090
- There's like the blowing of this violent wind.
- 00:16:46.157 --> 00:16:47.191
- Of this violent wind. it comes into to the house.
- 00:16:47.258 --> 00:16:49.193
- It comes into to the house. now, wind is
- 00:16:49.260 --> 00:16:50.227
- Now, wind is an interesting word,
- 00:16:50.294 --> 00:16:50.895
- An interesting word, because the word wind
- 00:16:50.961 --> 00:16:52.229
- Because the word wind is connected with spirit.
- 00:16:52.296 --> 00:16:53.864
- Is connected with spirit. and this happens in
- 00:16:53.931 --> 00:16:54.698
- And this happens in the old testament with ruach,
- 00:16:54.765 --> 00:16:56.133
- The old testament with ruach, and it happens in
- 00:16:56.200 --> 00:16:57.001
- And it happens in the new testament as with numa.
- 00:16:57.068 --> 00:16:59.236
- The new testament as with numa. all of these words overlap.
- 00:16:59.303 --> 00:17:01.472
- All of these words overlap. so now, all of a sudden,
- 00:17:01.539 --> 00:17:02.873
- So now, all of a sudden, the wind of the holy spirit
- 00:17:02.940 --> 00:17:04.942
- The wind of the holy spirit is filling the house
- 00:17:05.009 --> 00:17:06.444
- Is filling the house where they are sitting
- 00:17:06.510 --> 00:17:07.378
- Where they are sitting and the people are like,
- 00:17:07.445 --> 00:17:08.412
- And the people are like, "what is going on here?"
- 00:17:08.479 --> 00:17:10.815
- "what is going on here?" and he says, "it looks like
- 00:17:10.881 --> 00:17:11.749
- And he says, "it looks like fire starts coming down,
- 00:17:11.816 --> 00:17:14.051
- Fire starts coming down, and it starts sitting
- 00:17:14.118 --> 00:17:15.719
- And it starts sitting on each of them.
- 00:17:15.786 --> 00:17:16.587
- On each of them. and we don't know
- 00:17:16.654 --> 00:17:17.521
- And we don't know what's going on.
- 00:17:17.588 --> 00:17:18.789
- What's going on. and then, all of a sudden,
- 00:17:18.856 --> 00:17:20.257
- And then, all of a sudden, we start speaking
- 00:17:20.324 --> 00:17:21.358
- We start speaking in other tongues."
- 00:17:21.425 --> 00:17:25.963
- In other tongues." now, this right here.
- 00:17:26.030 --> 00:17:27.164
- Now, this right here. some must be going, "oh, no.
- 00:17:27.231 --> 00:17:28.199

- Clearly and succinctly. and the band can come on up here
- 00:17:38.609 --> 00:17:39.577
- And the band can come on up here so i cannot preach too long.
- 00:17:39.643 --> 00:17:43.447
- So i cannot preach too long. the holy spirit is not tongues.
- 00:17:43.514 --> 00:17:48.986
- The holy spirit is not tongues. uh-oh.
- 00:17:49.053 --> 00:17:49.520

- Is some of us said, "i don't want the holy spirit
- 00:18:08.906 --> 00:18:09.573
- "i don't want the holy spirit 'cause i don't know what
- 00:18:09.640 --> 00:18:10.374
- 'cause i don't know what that tongue is saying."
- 00:18:10.441 --> 00:18:11.108
- That tongue is saying." and i need you to know
- 00:18:11.175 --> 00:18:11.876
- And i need you to know that tongues and the holy spirit
- 00:18:11.942 --> 00:18:13.110
- That tongues and the holy spirit are not one in the same.
- 00:18:13.177 --> 00:18:14.512
- Are not one in the same. the holy spirit
- 00:18:14.578 --> 00:18:15.212
- The holy spirit might bring gifts,
- 00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:16.080
- Might bring gifts, but the holy spirit
- 00:18:16.147 --> 00:18:17.114
- But the holy spirit is not the gift.
- 00:18:17.181 --> 00:18:17.882
- Is not the gift. the holy spirit is
- 00:18:17.948 --> 00:18:19.016
- The holy spirit is the gift of all gifts,
- 00:18:19.083 --> 00:18:20.251
- The gift of all gifts, and he is the one that came.
- 00:18:20.317 --> 00:18:21.585
- And he is the one that came. and here's the reality that
- 00:18:21.652 --> 00:18:23.053
- And here's the reality that jesus is the one that baptizes
- 00:18:23.120 --> 00:18:25.422
- Jesus is the one that baptizes you with the holy spirit.
- 00:18:25.489 --> 00:18:26.624
- You with the holy spirit. which one of us don't want
- 00:18:26.690 --> 00:18:28.058
- Which one of us don't want what jesus has for us?
- 00:18:28.125 --> 00:18:29.460
- What jesus has for us? do you know it's not
- 00:18:29.527 --> 00:18:30.194
- Do you know it's not your pastor that baptizes you
- 00:18:30.261 --> 00:18:31.529
- Your pastor that baptizes you with the holy spirit?
- 00:18:31.595 --> 00:18:32.930
- With the holy spirit? it's not some certain
- 00:18:32.997 --> 00:18:34.165
- It's not some certain religious leader that baptizes
- 00:18:34.231 --> 00:18:36.033
- Religious leader that baptizes you with the holy spirit.
- 00:18:36.100 --> 00:18:37.234
- You with the holy spirit. we already read in john 1
- 00:18:37.301 --> 00:18:38.802
- That jesus is the baptizer.
- 00:18:38.903 --> 00:18:40.871
- That jesus is the baptizer. he's the one that
- 00:18:40.938 --> 00:18:42.206
- He's the one that has this gift for you.
- 00:18:42.273 --> 00:18:43.574
- Has this gift for you. and every single one of you

- Are here saying, "jesus, be lifted up
- 00:18:46.110 --> 00:18:47.211
- "jesus, be lifted up in my life,"
- 00:18:47.278 --> 00:18:47.745
- In my life," and jesus says to you,
- 00:18:47.811 --> 00:18:49.446
- And jesus says to you, "you want me to be
- 00:18:49.513 --> 00:18:50.181
- "you want me to be lifted up in your life?
- 00:18:50.247 --> 00:18:50.814
- Lifted up in your life? then you better wait for
- 00:18:50.881 --> 00:18:51.782
- Then you better wait for the gift that i have for you.
- 00:18:51.849 --> 00:18:52.917
- Because i can't be lifted up
- 00:18:53.017 --> 00:18:54.451
- Because i can't be lifted up the way you want me to be
- 00:18:54.518 --> 00:18:55.352
- The way you want me to be lifted up if you're not
- 00:18:55.419 --> 00:18:56.220
- Lifted up if you're not gonna live with
- 00:18:56.287 --> 00:18:57.054
- Gonna live with the power of the gift
- 00:18:57.121 --> 00:18:57.855
- The power of the gift that i have for you."
- 00:18:57.922 --> 00:18:58.822
- That i have for you." so, what i need you
- 00:18:58.889 --> 00:18:59.657
- So, what i need you to do, generation, is i need
- 00:18:59.723 --> 00:19:01.392
- To do, generation, is i need you to say, "holy spirit,
- 00:19:01.458 --> 00:19:03.027
- You to say, "holy spirit, come and fill me up."
- 00:19:03.093 --> 00:19:06.163
- Come and fill me up." and when it happens,
- 00:19:06.230 --> 00:19:07.031
- And when it happens, oh, my goodness, look what
- 00:19:07.097 --> 00:19:08.332
- Oh, my goodness, look what begins to take place.
- 00:19:08.399 --> 00:19:11.335
- Begins to take place. now, they were
- 00:19:11.402 --> 00:19:11.869
- Now, they were staying in jerusalem.
- 00:19:11.936 --> 00:19:13.037
- Verse 5, "god-fearing jews from
- 00:19:13.137 --> 00:19:19.443
- Verse 5, "god-fearing jews from every nation under heaven."
- 00:19:19.510 --> 00:19:21.378
