ACTS 2:5-15- Corps Notes - November 4, 1975
ACTS 2:5-15 November 4, 1975 On the day of Pentecost there were only twelve apostles who received. The location of the experience was the temple. It was the time of the first hour of prayer.

That ‘what’ is; “the promise of the Father” in Acts 1:4; “baptized with pneuma hagion” in Acts 1:5; and “endued with power from on high” in Luke 24:49.

This becomes very interesting when you work the details of it. “devout” - religious, pious “men” - this word is used in the Bible to describe heads of families or heads of households; also translated “husband.” I understand this because this was the Feast of Pentecost where all the heads of families would appear in Jerusalem. The other two feasts were the Passover and Tabernacle. We think sometimes we put forth a lot of effort. What do you think these people put forth in these days when they didn’t have automobiles? Th

Also, as we cover Ephesians 4:28 tonight, I had all the information in front of me from another article that Walter Cummins has in the... has had in the Magazine. The first article on Ephesians 4:25 is entitled "The Spoken Word." The one on Ephesians 4:28 is "Workers for God." Both of these pieces of work by Walter are absolutely superb. And I believe that they should appear and will appear in our research journal GMIR whenever we begin publishing that. {GMIR Aramaic word meaning ' to perfect, accomplish , mature, complete, arithmetically to be divisible without any remainder.} And I notice
