Re:Verse passage – Acts 2:1-13, 36-47 (day five) In the blink of an eye what was a group of one hundred twenty becomes a group of three thousand one hundred and twenty. Scriptures say they were “added.” And what seems to be one of their first rhythms is to gather to learn and hear God’s Word. Not for the sake of gathering, but to listen to and study the scriptures. There was a hunger and desire to know and understand God’s Word. It was fervent. It was prominent. It was continual. What were the Apostles teaching? The Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms as well as the words of Jesus. What became quickly clear and true for those first believers still remains true for us today. Being filled with the Spirit and being filled with God’s Word go together.
