In the Easter season, we have heard Jesus promise his disciples over and over that he would send the Holy Spirit. On Pentecost, the wait was finally over. Like a powerful tidal wave, the Holy Spirit was poured out. He came to saturate Jerusalem with the message of the Savior. Jesus did and said so much that the apostle John would later surmise by the Spirit that the whole world would not have room for the books that could be written about Jesus’ words and works. As we celebrate the festival of Pentecost once again today, we have “The Holy Spirit Sent with Testimony”. Our sermon comes from Ezekiel 37.
