b'When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken. Utterly amazed, they asked: \\u201cAren\\u2019t all these who are speaking Galileans? Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language? Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs\\u2014we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!\\u201d Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, \\u201cWhat does this mean?\\u201d Some, however, made fun of them and said, \\u201cThey have had too much wine.\\u201d Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: \\u201cFellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: \\u201c\\u2006\\u2018In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.\\nActs 2:1\\u202d-\\u202c14\\u202d, \\u202c16\\u202d-\\u202c17 NIV\\n\\n\\n--- \\n\\nSend in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pastor-lucy-paynter/message\\nSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pastor-lucy-paynter/support'
