day of Pentecost

Acts 2


the Church was empowered

Acts 1.8

8 But ye shall receive power,
after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you:
and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem,
and in all Judaea, and in Samaria,
and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
This is talking to the Church
not individuals
Those baptized believers already had the Holy Spirit
on the Day of Pentecost


The Church was started when Jesus was baptized
He was a member and head of His Church
