"And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams,
your young men will see visions.
29
Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
30
I will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth,
blood and fire and billows of smoke.
31
The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood
before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD .
32
And everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved;
for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be deliverance,
as the LORD has said, among the survivors whom the LORD calls.
EZEKIEL 11:17-20.
17
"Therefore say: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says:
I will gather you from the nations and bring you back
from the countries where you have been scattered,
and I will give you back the land of Israel again.'
18
"They will return to it and remove all its vile images and detestable idols.
19
I will give them an undivided heart and put a new spirit in them;
I will remove from them their heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh.
20
Then they will follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws.
They will be my people, and I will be their God.
ISAIAH 44:1-8.
1
"But now listen, O Jacob, my servant, Israel, whom I have chosen.
2
This is what the LORD says--he who made you, who formed you in the womb,
and who will help you: Do not be afraid, O Jacob, my servant,
Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
3
For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground;
I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring,
and my blessing on your descendants.
4
They will spring up like grass in a meadow,
like poplar trees by flowing streams.
5
One will say, 'I belong to the LORD ';
another will call himself by the name of Jacob;
still another will write on his hand, 'The LORD's,'
and will take the name Israel.
6
"This is what the LORD says-
Israel's King and Redeemer, the LORD Almighty:
I am the first and I am the last;
apart from me there is no God.
7
Who then is like me? Let him proclaim it. Let him declare and lay out
before me what has happened since I established my ancient people,
and what is yet to come--yes, let him foretell what will come.
8
Do not tremble, do not be afraid.
Did I not proclaim this and foretell it long ago?
You are my witnesses. Is there any God besides me?
No, there is no other Rock; I know not one."
JOHN 20:19-23.
19
Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week,
when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled
for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst,
and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
20
And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side.
Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the LORD.
21
Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you:
as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.
22
And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them,
Receive ye the Holy Ghost:
23
Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them;
and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.
ACTS 2:1-11.
1
When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.
2
Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven
and filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3
They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated
and came to rest on each of them.
4
All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak
in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.
5
Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews
from every nation under heaven.
6
When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment,
because each one heard them speaking in his own language.
7
Utterly amazed, they asked: "Are not all these men
who are speaking Galileans?
8
Then how is it that each of us hears them in his own native language?
9
Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia,
Judea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
10
Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene;
visitors from Rome
11
(both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs--we hear them
declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!"
1 CORINTHIANS 12:4-13.
4
There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5
There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord.
6
There are different kinds of working, but the same God works
all of them in all men.
7
Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.
8
To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom,
to another the message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit,
9
to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing
by that one Spirit,
10
to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing
between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues,
and to still another the interpretation of tongues.
11
All these are the work of one and the same Spirit,
and he gives them to each one, just as he determines.
12
The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though
all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ.
13
For we were all baptized by[3] one Spirit into one body--whether
Jews or Greeks, slave or free--and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.
