About the show
Renewing Your Mind with the Word of God podcast is a verse by verse, chapter by chapter study of the Word of God. The podcast’s name is from Romans 12:2 which says “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” How do we renew our minds? by studying the Word of God, which is found in the Bible.
In this episode, we start chapter 2 from the Book of Acts. We cover verses 1-24. We see the Holy Spirit come to start His earthly ministry as promised by Jesus. After the Holy Spirit comes and fills Jesus’ believers during Pentecost, they are empowered by the Holy Spirit to speak in languages previously unknown to the believers. A crowd of Jews who spoke different languages, who had come from different parts of the Roman Empire to Jerusalem to celebrate the Feast of Pentecost, heard the loud sound of the Holy Spirit coming. The crowd of Jews came to where they heard the sound, which was where Jesus’s followers were. When the crowd arrived, they heard Jesus’ followers speaking to them in their various languages (languages until then that were unknown to Jesus’ followers) about the goodness of God. As a result, the crowd was amazed and perplexed. But some, as always were critical, and assumed that Jesus’ followers were drunk. But Peter, now empowered by the Holy Spirit, told the crowd that Jesus’ followers were not drunk. He told them that what they were witnessing was the fulfillment of a prophecy by the prophet Joel when God said in the Old Testament that He would one day pour out His Spirit upon mankind. Listen to hear the complete story and be blessed by the Word of God!
