This Sunday is Pentecost, a day when God’s people celebrate God’s pouring out of his Spirit upon his people. As we think about this awesome gift, we go way back in Scripture to the story of Babel. There the people sought to come together to glorify their names in rebellion against God, but the Lord confused their language and plan. At Pentecost we see people coming together in language again, but this time in the power of God’s Spirit, and the result is clarity, repentance and salvation for many. God’s Spirit is now working powerfully in this world, drawing God’s children to salvation, unity and life in Christ.
