Discussion Questions

  1. What was celebrated on the day of Pentecost?

  2. Some of the people who witnessed the outpouring of the Holy Spirit sneered and said “these people are drunk”. Were Jesus’ miracles ever misunderstood? Look at John 6:26, Mark 6:49-52, John 9:13-17, Matthew 12:22-24.

  3. Was the experience of Jesus’ followers in Acts 2:1-4 a unique event, or a description of something that all Christians should experience?

  4. What is the significance of the “tongues of fire” mentioned in Acts 2:3? Are there other places in the Bible that God’s presence is represented by fire?

  5. Compare the “speaking in tongues” of Acts 2:1-4 to Paul’s teaching about tongues in 1 Corinthians 12 and 14. What are the similarities? What are the differences?
