Yes,this prophecy was fulfilled becaused the scripture said "this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel (Act 2:16.However, I'm not absolutely sure about your application of the words "completely fulfilled" because in ACTS 2:17 we must observe the words LAST DAYS " and it shall come to pass in the last days,said God I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh."Jesus began to preach , and to say as record in the book of ST.Matthew 4:17"Repent,for the kingdom of heaven is at hand"and in Mt.6:33 Jesus instruct us to seek ye first the Kingdom of God. Even, in the lords prayer Mt.6:9-10 we are praying, OUR FATHER WHICH ART IN HEAVEN,HALLOWED BE THY NAME.THY KINGDOM COME.THY WILL BE DONE IN EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. Jesus said in Mt.16:15 "but whom say ye that I am?" and Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the son of the living God.And Jesus answer and said unto him, Blessed art thou,Simon Barjona:for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my father which is in heaven.And I say also unto thee, that thou are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church;and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. This was the first mention of the Church by Jesus. Christ's Death,Burial and resurrection is the completion of the first coming of Christ known as the first Advent among Christian all over the world.In the St.John 14:16 Christ gives us a promise of the spirit."And I will pray the father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever. We are in the period of the second coming of Christ, where as whosoever shall call call upon the name of the lord shall be saved.Before that great and notable day of the lord come.The church that Christ is returning for is still open for new converts untill that great day of the lord but within the body of christ today he has given ministry gifts for the purpouse of prefecting the saints. EPHESIAN 4:11 And he gave some, apostles,and some, prophets, some, evangelelists, and some, pastors and teachers, For the perfecting of the saints,for the work of the ministry,for the edifying of the body of christ. HEBREWS 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday,and today,and forever.If you are appling Joel 2:28-32 to the church and it current status pertaining to the holy Ghost it's a work in progress. Jesus came into this world and fulfilled scriptures,but all works not complete neither is the work of the Holy Ghost nor the works of current living christian, until the Gospel of Jesus is all over the world,and everyone has an opportunity to know Christ. |
