New TestamentGospels and Acts of the Apostles |
What happened when the Holy Spirit came? |
John said, “And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them ability.” (NRSV, Acts 2:2–4)
