What is Pentecost?
Pentecost marks the fulfillment of the promise of the risen Christ in Acts 1:8. Pentecost is the birthday of the Church. It’s the day when the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples. Pentecost is the Greek name for ‘Shavuot’, the harvest festival of the Israelites, which was going on when the Holy Spirit kick-started the church!
The word “Pentecost” is actually a transliteration of the Greek word pentekostos, which means “fifty.” It refers to the Christian expression “pentekoste hemera” or “fiftieth day.” We find the Pentecost even in Acts 2:1-31.
