Acts 2:1<\/p>\n
Acts 2:1 \tWhen the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. <\/p>\n
Together in one place
\nA sound
\nA mighty rushing wind<\/p>\n
Divided tongues of fire<\/p>\n
A new disposition
\nObedience<\/p>\n
Rested on each one of them
\n120 men<\/p>\n
Acts 1:4 And while staying with them he ordered them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, he said, \u201cyou heard from me; <\/p>\n

Lift up your voice<\/p>\n
Acts 2:36\t\tLet all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.\u201d <\/p>\n
God has made him both Lord and Christ<\/p>\n
Spirit filled opportunity<\/p>\n
Acts 2:41\t \tSo those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls. <\/p>\n
Receive His word
\nAdded to the number<\/p>\n
God is about census<\/p>\n
Acts 2:47\t \tpraising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.

\n\t4:1 \tAnd as they were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them,
\n\t2 \tgreatly annoyed because they were teaching the people and proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
\n\t3 \tAnd they arrested them and put them in custody until the next day, for it was already evening.
\n\t4 \tBut many of those who had heard the word believed, and the number of the men came to about five thousand. <\/p>\n
Teaching
\nProclaiming<\/p>\n
Heard the Word
\nNew believers<\/p>\n
Acts 4:31\t\tAnd when they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness.
\nPray for boldness to speak
\nContinue to speak<\/p>\n
