The Holy
Ghost and Pentecost
|
|
{2005} Kalomo, Zambia
Part One Morning Service
We prayed and we feel like it is the will of God for
us to be here; and I want you to know that I love each
one of you. We believe God, that He’s sending a
revival to Zambia - a revival of the Word…, of
building the Word of God within you.
So, to start the meetings, I want to speak to you
about the Holy Ghost and Pentecost. Now, the
Holy Ghost came first on the feast day of Pentecost,
and that was only for the Jews. The Holy Ghost came
much later to the Gentiles, and that was in the tenth
chapter of the Book of Acts, when Peter went to
Cornelius’ house, and began to preach to the Gentiles.
God sent the same Holy Ghost to the Gentiles, but He
sent the Holy Ghost only to the Jews to begin with.
So, we’re going to be dealing along that line of
thought.
The Jews in the Word of God is known as the brethren.
It types out perfectly with Joseph (him being a type
of Christ) going down into Egypt, and while he was
there, God gave him a Gentile bride; then his brothers
came to him later. I want you to notice as is revealed
in the scripture, that Joseph was with his brothers to
begin with. He was sold into slavery, taken into
Egypt, and while there he received a Gentile bride.
Later on his brethren came down to Egypt and he
revealed himself to them. When he revealed himself to
them, he already had a bride; he took a Gentile bride.
There are two people identified in the Word of God—the
Jews and the Gentiles. The Jews are Christ’s brethren;
and that is who the Holy Ghost came to on the Jewish
feast day of Pentecost. The Bride was not part of the
people in Jerusalem. The message and the plan of
salvation started for the church as a whole on the day
of Pentecost, but the Gentiles were not part of the
church at this time, but would be brought in later.
The Holy Ghost started on the day of Pentecost, and
the gospel started on the day of Pentecost. It came to
the Jews first and they had twelve apostles, but God
didn’t forget the Gentiles. He raised up a man named
Paul. And Paul said, “I am the apostle to the
Gentiles.” That’s what God is doing now—He’s getting
His Bride married to Christ. Paul came and introduced
the Bride to Christ. In 2nd Corinthians 11:2, Paul
said, “I have espoused you (or engaged) you to
Christ.” But the marriage didn’t take place then. The
Church fell away and went into the seven church ages.
But God said, “I will restore.” There was a Gentile
Bride there that was engaged, and now it’s a Gentile
Bride here in this end time that’s going to be married
to Christ.
