May 28 is Pentecost

[Kokopelli]

I wouldn?t say that prayer is ?inadequate? and neither does the Bible:

?Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.?
-James 5:16 (niv84).

Perhaps I wasn't very clear. I was refering to Romans 8:26-27...

Romans 8:26-27
English Standard Version

26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. 27 And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

[Garand Hunter]

The Holy Spirit prays the will of God thru us. When we let him.

Psalm 1

[denpython]

Well,happy Pentecost Sunday to yas!!

[jarhead714]

A Holy Day of Obligation so get your hides to church tomorrow ladies and germs!

[Wordupmybrotha]

Well what do you know...our church mentioned during announcements that this was the Pentecost weekend.

And then he proceeded to say, "Happy Memorial day" I didn't make a fuss, because it's easy to slip when saying something live in front of several hundred people and it's a common faux pas.

[2761377]

"And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, 'Be saved from this perverse generation.' Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them."

[Dirtlaw]

The Holy Spirit amazes!

[Garand Hunter]

Yes Amen !

Psalm 1

[ZapThyCat]

So for those of you not in the know, Pentecost, yes, is the birthday of the church in Acts 2...

But...

Pentecost was the feast day on which the original law was given at Mt Sinai in Exodus, as well. It symbolizes both the writing of the law on tablets of stone, and then Jesus fulfilled that, and then the new law was written on their hearts.

2 Corinthians 3:2-3

Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.

[2761377]

It is a major day for the Orthodox churches and very well observed, but it falls on June 4th for us.

today is the day. I predict it will be standing room only at church, lol

Glory to God.
