The Calendar ~

Pentecost Pentecost comes from the Greek word meaning the fiftieth day, and was the name given to the Jewish feast commemorating the giving of the Law by Moses, fifty days after the Passover. It was the day the Holy Spirit descended on the Apostles, and is our second greatest celebration. It is the day the church was founded (Acts 2: 1-42), for many years known as Whitsunday. It is now again called Pentecost, perhaps also to allude to the experiences and gifts received by the Apostles, which are emphasized by the Pentecostal Churches, and by the Charismatic Movement in the main denominations. In the Church of the 2nd and 3rd centuries, Pentecost also referred to the whole 50 days between Easter and Whitsuntide. During this time no fasting was allowed, and all people stood to pray. The account in the Acts is not an allegory, for when it was written it would have been a memory shared by many people, including the 3,000 who joined the apostles. These new Christians changed the church from a small group of about 120 disciples and others who had seen the risen Lord (Acts 1: 15) into a significant company. Before Pentecost the disciples knew the Lord and His resurrection, but that day they received remarkable courage and energy to spread their knowledge. For them it was fact not faith. The gifts they received were astounding, reversing the confusion of the tower of Babel. They spoke in languages intelligible to persons present and in angelic languages. St Paul wrote extensively to the Christians in Corinth about angelic tongues and the critical importance of their interpretation (1 Cor. 14: 1-40), but his message in this passage is diluted by comments about women that we now interpret as culturally conditioned and so we tend to discard his words. Pentecost, however, is not about culture; it is about the truth. Peter and the disciples spoke what they knew because their knowledge was not to be a secret, but to be shown and evaluated by the world. The church is not a cultural society founded to share experiences, but a world expected to know, speak, and live out the Truth.

The Gospel The Holy Gospel is written in the twentieth chapter of the Gospel according to Saint John beginning at the 19th verse. (BCP) Glory be to thee, O Lord. (BCP) The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John. (BAS) Glory to you, Lord Jesus Christ. (BAS) When it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and the doors of the house where the disciples had met were locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, ‘Peace be with you.’ After he said this, he showed them his hands and his side. Then the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.’ When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.’ (John 20:19-23) The Gospel of Christ. Praise be to thee, O Christ. (BCP) Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ. (BAS)

good. To one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the discernment of spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. All these are activated by one and the same Spirit, who allots to each one individually just as the Spirit chooses. For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For in the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body-Jews or Greeks, slaves or free-and we were all made to drink of one Spirit. (1 Corinthians 12:3-13) Hear what the Spirit is saying to the church.

Thanks be to God.

Gradual Hymn: I Feel The Winds of God Today ~

I feel the winds of God to‑day; To‑day my sail I lift,

Though heavy oft with drenching spray, And torn with many a rift;

If hope but light the water's crest, And Christ my bark will use, I'll seek the seas at his behest,

And brave another cruise.

It is the wind of God that dries My vain regretful tears,

Until with braver thoughts shall rise The purer, brighter years;

If cast on shores of selfish ease Or pleasure I should be,

Lord, let me feel thy freshening breeze, And I'll put back to sea.

3 If ever I forget thy love

And how that love was shown, Lift high the blood‑red flag above:

It bears thy Name alone. Great Pilot of my onward way,

Thou wilt not let me drift; I feel the winds of God to‑day,

To‑day my sail I lift.

A Reading from the Book of Acts When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them ability. Now there were devout Jews from every nation under heaven living in Jerusalem. And at this sound the crowd gathered and was bewildered, because each one heard them speaking in the native language of each. Amazed and astonished, they asked, ‘Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? And how is it that we hear, each of us, in our own native language? Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabs-in our own languages we hear them speaking about God’s deeds of power.’ All were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, ‘What does this mean?’ But others sneered and said, ‘They are filled with new wine.’ But Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and addressed them: ‘Men of Judea and all who live in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen to what I say. Indeed, these are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only nine o’clock in the morning. No, this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel: “In the last days it will be, God declares, that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams. Even upon my slaves, both men and women, in those days I will pour out my Spirit; and they shall prophesy. And I will show portents in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and

smoky mist. The sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood, before the coming of the Lord’s great and glorious day. Then everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Acts 2:1-21) Hear what the Spirit is saying to the church.

Thanks be to God.

Psalm 104:25-35, 37B

Refrain: Send forth your Spirit, O Lord, and renew the face of the earth.

O Lord, how manifold are your works! in wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. Yonder is the great and wide sea with its living things too many to number, creatures both small and great. Refrain

There move the ships, and there is that Leviathan, which you have made for the sport of it. All of them look to you to give them their food in due season. You give it to them; they gather it; you open your hand, and they are filled with good things. Refrain.

You hide your face, and they are terrified; you take away their breath, and they die and return to their dust. You send forth your Spirit, and they are created; and so you renew the face of the earth. Refrain. May the glory of the Lord endure for ever; may the Lord rejoice in all his works. He looks at the earth and it trembles; he touches the mountains and they smoke. Refrain.

I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will praise my God while I have my being. May these words of mine please him; I will rejoice in the Lord. Hallelujah! Refrain. A Reading from the First Letter of Paul to the Corinthians

Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking by the Spirit of God ever says ‘Let Jesus be cursed!’ and no one can say ‘Jesus is Lord’ except by the Holy Spirit. Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of services, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who activates all of them in everyone. To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common
