Bible Question:
Acts2-4 Reading Chapter 16 There were promises given in John 16, that were fulfilled in the disciples experiences,were recorded in Acts 2-4 I see that their faith would be shaken, before it finally would be cemented. They had great courage. Jesus loved them for all there short comings. |
Bible Answer: I'm not sure what the question is, but here's the answer. :0 The promise was to the Apostles (John 14-17, Jesus is with Apostles)and the Apostles were the ones gathered together in the upper room. Acts 2:1 refers to "they", the antecendent to this is the "apostles" of the previous verse. It was the eleven who Peter defended as not being drunk (2:14,15), it was Galileans, a reference to the fishermen, who were speaking of God in other tongues (2:7). Later, other Christians had gifts of the Spirit, but these things did not happen immediately. Not until the Apostles laid hands on the Christians as Simon witnesses in Acts 8 and which the Apostles did to the 7 servants of Acts 6. Good day. |
