Pentecost, the Birth of the Christian Church.

2. ARE YOU READY FOR A
PENTECOST EXPERIENCE?

3. • My friend it is good that you are a Christian believer,
but if you have not been baptized with the Holy Spirit of
God, if you have not been empowered with the
anointing of the Holy Spirit, if the Gifts of the Holy Spirit
are not operating in you, then my friend sorry to tell you,
but you are an ineffective Christian.
To you who are reading this note:

4. • Yes, you are saved and you will be one day in heaven;
but, you are not doing what God has called you to do.
Remember: You have a high calling in your life, you are
a minister of reconciliation, but for that you need the
power, authority and anointing of the Holy Spirit.

5. • Get on your knees tonight and ask God to fill you with
His Holy Spirit.
• Go to church on Sunday and expect God to do
something extraordinary in your life, immerse you in His
Holy Spirit!
