There is big news for you! I express great joy to you. The Child who was born in the city of David, in Bethlehem, lived among you, people. He lived in Israel as the true Israelite. He gave His blood, He gave His life for humanity. He died on a terrible cross and thus reopened the Way to God for man. He overcame death, rose from the grave and lives forever, forever. On the clouds, He left this globe and promised to change God's presence on Earth. And we celebrate that at Pentecost.

Something new has been born. God Himself came to Earth again. This time, not with the limitations of the human being, of the physical body. This time in the form of the Holy Spirit. God is present worldwide, as can be seen everywhere. His body is the church. Not a physical building, but a collection of believing people who live and express their faith in unity.

People who are led by the Holy Spirit. They sow and harvest, are pruned and grow and flourish in scents and colors. Life as a Christian is sometimes called boring. But when God is involved and involved in this way, there's really nothing left of the boring sauce. You want to experience that so much and you want others to do that so much!

Yes, Pentecost is a wonderful birthday party. No matter how you feel about the church, whatever your experiences with the church, it's a party. In the comments below, you can share a little bit about your personal view of the church. I hope to write something about it this summer, partly based on this.
