The Spirit of Pentecost



God gave the Holy Spirit to His Church on the Day of Pentecost, but few now understand the meaning of this Holy Day. God’s Holy Spirit is vital for true Christian living, but many are unaware of what it is, what Pentecost is, and what these things mean to Christians today!
