June 6 of 1992, my wife Marie and I were in Jerusalem on this

Anniversary of the Fall of Jerusalem back into the hands of Israel
after some 1900 years. This coinciding of these 3 events in
celebration - will never happen again - but God arranged it for His
own special purposes and to get His point across. It fell 10 days
after Jesus' Ascension, and 50 days after His Resurrection. Are we
listening from God's point of view?</span></span></span></font></p>

these events underlined the importance of the Father's role in making
this Jesus both Lord and Christ (Messiah).</font></p>

<font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2">Then note in 2:37-42 the
extraordinary results of Peter's anointed and clear preaching: Deep
conviction, and willingness to obey God's Word through Peter in true
repentance, and their water baptism to confirm this inward heart
change - and immediate reception of the Holy Spirit through the
laying on of the apostles' hands.</font></p>

of the Holy Spirit. Only 11 times does this word appear in the NT;
each time belonging to the Holy Spirit - following the Day of
Pentecost. It appears first in John 4:10, used by Jesus, when He
described to the Samaritan woman at Jacob's well, that this “gift”
is like an </span></span></span><span style="font-style: normal;"><u><span style="">artesian

were baptized immediately, making it parallel to circumcision under
the OT. In Exodus 4 God sought to slay Moses because he failed to
circumcise his sons because of his wife Zipporah. Just so those who
repent and believe should seek immediate baptism before receiving the
“gift” of the Holy Spirit. See Acts 8, 9, 10 & 11; 19:1-6 -
for the apostolic practice in this regard.</span></span></span></p>

because of God's Bible Numerics through Mr. Panin, Acts 2 is divided
into 7 subdivisions, which give added clarity, cohesion and strength
to the unfolding of this great historical event. And it, with the two
other Feasts of the Jews, are all tied together with the 7 Feasts of
the Jews recorded in Leviticus 23. </span></span></span><span style="font-style: normal;"><u><span style="">Jesus</span></u></span><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">

is our Passover Lamb. Now we have this chapter in which the Holy
Spirit fulfills the Great Feast of Pentecost (Shavuot). And lastly at
His second coming, Jesus will fulfill the Feast of Tabernacles, which
is soon upon us.</span></span></span></p>
