The modern charismatic, Pentecostal church is obsessed with attempting to reproduce the Day of Pentecost. Funnily enough, it has nothing to do with the Jewish holiday, neither is it about the supernatural ability to speak in foreign languages. No. It is all about converts speaking in “tongues”, also known as gibberish. This episode is meant to solidify the UPC’s infatuation with this “experience”, but mostly to encourage any listening, Christian believer that you can hop right off that hamster wheel. When you receive the Holy Spirit, at the time of belief on and trust in Jesus Christ, you are filled to the tippy-top with the Spirit of God and that makes us complete in Him!
And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. -Acts 2:21 ESV
