    At Pentecost, God enabled Jesus' disciples to do what they could not do on their own. God fulfilled Jesus' promise to spread the gospel to all lands, as the pilgrims heard the good news in thier own language. God calls us, too, to be his witnesses.

    Jesus Christ has the nickname and title of ‘Prince of Peace’ because He offers us peace with God. He offers us peace with God because Jesus took His perfect obedient faithful life to God and laid down His life for us on a cross and paid our penalty for our imperfect disobedient faithless life.
