Even though there’re many churches in the world, no church has the truth of the Pentecost except the Church of God. Then why does WMSCOG keep the Pentecost? Because the Bible testifies about the Pentecost.

Lev23:15-22 “ ‘From the day after the Sabbath, the day you brought the sheaf of the wave offering, count off seven full weeks. Count off fifty days up to the day after the seventh Sabbath, and then present an offering of new grain to the Lord. From wherever you live, bring two loaves made of two-tenths of an ephah of the finest flour, baked with yeast, as a wave offering of firstfruits to the Lord. Present with this bread seven male lambs, each a year old and without defect, one young bull and two rams. They will be a burnt offering to the Lord, together with their grain offerings and drink offerings—a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the Lord. Then sacrifice one male goat for a sin offering and two lambs, each a year old, for a fellowship offering. The priest is to wave the two lambs before the Lord as a wave offering, together with the bread of the firstfruits. They are a sacred offering to the Lord for the priest. On that same day you are to proclaim a sacred assembly and do no regular work. This is to be a lasting ordinance for the generations to come, wherever you live. “ ‘When you reap the harvest of your land, do not reap to the very edges of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. Leave them for the poor and for the foreigner residing among you. I am the Lord your God.’ ”

Among the feasts of God, there’s the Pentecost. God commanded us to keep it. So the Early Church kept the Pentecost following the will of God.

Acts 2:1-4 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.

Those who kept the day of Pentecost were filled with the Holy Spirit. God blesses those who keep the Pentecost with the Holy Spirit.

Mt 28:18-20 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

God commanded us to preach the gospel to the whole world. However, it’s impossible to preach the gospel with our own power or wisdom. It can be completed when we do it with God. To let us complete the heavenly mission, God pours down on us the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost. That’s why we must keep the Pentecost. Let’s receive abundant blessings of the Holy Spirit in WMSCOG.
