  • S3 Ep82: Pentecost
    Jun 8 2025
    In this sermon, Pastor Nick delves into the pivotal moment of Pentecost as described in the Book of Acts. He highlights that the author Luke wrote this narrative not just for a specific individual, Theophilus, but for all who love God, illustrating that the story of Jesus and the early church continues today. Pastor Nick emphasizes the significance of the Holy Spirit's arrival, which not only empowered the disciples, but also united them in proclaiming the gospel across diverse languages and cultures. He poignantly reflects on the moment when 3,000 people were added to the church, challenging listeners to recognize their place in this ongoing divine narrative. Pastor Nick draws parallels between the early church's vibrant community and today's church, urging members to embrace their Holy Spirit-filled purpose. He urges believers to listen attentively to the Holy Spirit's guidance and to engage actively in spreading the message of Jesus, demonstrating love and acceptance to all. He critiques the prevailing attitudes in society, particularly in political spheres, and calls for a revival where God's people rise up to embody His mission of love, acceptance, and outreach. Ultimately, he reinforces the theme that the church is God's chosen instrument for change, urging everyone to participate in the transformative work of the Spirit in their lives and communities.
