If you had to pick the three biggest days on the church calendar, they might be Christmas, Easter, and . . . this Sunday! Pentecost was originally an Old Testament festival – Shavuoth, the feast of “Weeks”, also called “First Fruits” or “Ingathering” in the Bible. It was (and is for Jews today) a celebration of the beginnings of the grain harvest. Fifty days after Christ’s resurrection, the worshipers in Jerusalem celebrated the real Harvest from God – the Holy Spirit poured upon Christ’s followers! 3,000 people were baptized! The harvest of the saved began! And the harvest continues today . . .
