Pentecost Makeover

“After the Holy Spirit is come upon you…” Acts 1:8

You’ve seen it before … an old house that goes through an extreme makeover—It’s like a brand new home!

The attraction is the compelling contrast between life before and life after.

Consider, then, the contrast between the Christian life before and the Christian life after the Holy Spirit comes upon you!

 

After for Christians:

  • receive power, be witnesses (Acts 1:8)
  • magnify God (Acts 10:46)
  • live according to the Spirit (Rom. 8:5)
  • put to death the deeds of the body (Rom. 8:13)
  • receive gifts of the Spirit (I Cor. 12:4)
  • walk in the Spirit (Gal. 5:16)
  • be led by the Spirit (Gal. 5:18)

This is the Promise. The Gift is the Holy Spirit. Embrace the Spirit on this Pentecost weekend!
