Usually the more powerful something is, the harder it is to control. Not so with God. After Jesus returned to heaven, God unleashed his power in the world through his Holy Spirit. At the same time, he tied up that power to his Word so that we would always know where we can find it and how we can use it. All of this began on the day known as Pentecost. Ten days after his Ascension, Jesus kept his promise to pour out his Holy Spirit on his church. On Pentecost, the Spirit arrived just as Jesus promised and in the specific way Jesus had promised. The Spirit demonstrated how he would work on earth during earth’s last age: through the written and spoken words of Jesus.
