Pentecost

Today is Pentecost, the day the Holy Ghost came to believers.

Originally a Jewish festival celebrating the first fruits of the harvest, Jews came to view Pentecost as the day Moses received the law (supposedly fifty days after the first Passover). Pentecost was made all the more important by the events recorded in Acts 2, in which the Holy Spirit descended upon men.

And they thought we were drunk...ha.

Rock on.
