THE DAY OF PENTECOST: BIBLE SUMMARY

(Message by Tanny Keng)


1. The Day Of Pentecost 

a) This period — Dawning of the New Israel — sees the kingdom of heaven come into being and spread across the world. The apostles were active in this time. This period covers about 70 years from the death of Jesus until the end of the first century.

b) It covers the seven weeks of the "beginning in Jerusalem" from Christ’s burial to the day of Pentecost. We look especially at what happened on the day of Pentecost, as being a key day in the establishment of God's new kingdom.
