I'm Daniel, I'm one of the I'm the lead pastor here at Res
Church. Welcome.
If you're new. OK, I've had, I've had the
blessing of having some, some newborns and maybe you've had
kids or you're an aunt or an uncle or a cousin and you've
gotten to spend some time around infants and newborns as well.
And one of the things that's kind of unique if you're a dad
is it when that baby is really small, the mom almost
immediately bonds with the baby, The, the, the scent and the
smell and the feeding and everything.
There's a chemical reaction. And so the, the bonding is
really quick. But if you're the dad, you're,
you might as well be a lamp. You're just like, and, and so,
and you know, I mean, we all know that babies are cute only
because we're biologically wired to believe that babies are cute
because actually they're, they're kind of little tyrants.
They scream, they demand, they never say thank you.
And so for those first few months, if you're a dad, it's,
it's a little bit more difficult to connect.
And there's a moment with every single one of my kids.
And you might be able to relate to this.
Well, the light bulb comes on. And what I mean by that is I,
you know, I pick Avery up and it's some period of months into
her life. I pick her up and she recognizes
me Bing And, and in that moment, the, the, the connection with my
daughter becomes 2 two ways instead of just one way because
she actually recognizes that I'm not a lamp.
I'm, I'm, I'm dad and so, so up until then, you know, everything
that that baby's processing is just kind of a blur of hunger
and noise. And, but then in that moment, a
real connection starts. It's the moment that the
connection becomes mutual. It's the moment that it becomes
personal. And, and that's when everything
changes. And, and so we're going to
continue our series today. We're going to be in Acts
chapter 2. That's exactly what happens at
the end of Acts one beginning of chapter 2.
The connection becomes real. You see, God had always been
there. He's always been present.
He's always been loving. He's always been leaning over
the crib since Genesis. But there's a moment in history,
a very specific, loud, fire filled moment where the Holy
Spirit arrives and all of a sudden the relationship isn't
just real, it's personal. It becomes intimate, it becomes
individual. And that's what we're talking
about today. Our big idea, if you get nothing
else out of today, is this. God wants in.
Last week in this series that
we're calling day one, we talked about Jesus disciples being told
that they needed to wait for the arrival of the Holy Spirit.
And they're not given a lot of details about the mission of the
church and how it's supposed to work and when it's supposed to
happen and how are we going to spread this gospel.
And everything seems a little bit crazy because they're given
so little information. And we talked about why that was
because we love to have all of the details to feel like we're
in control of the outcome. And so we're going to pick this
story back up in Acts one. We I think we left off in verse
11 or 12, they walk back off this mountain.
It was a mount called all of it. It's about 1/2 day journey.
And so they've walked back and they're now in an upper room
with a bunch of the other disciples.
And so in the middle of axes, they're going to name off a
number of the disciples that are in the room.
But then we find out later there's 120 of them waiting in
this upper room. And Peter decides while they're
up there and they're waiting, you know, we now only have 11
apostles because Judas has taken his life and we need a 12th
disciple. And so they, they, they have
some criteria for that. It needs to be someone who's
been with Jesus since the beginning and has seen the
resurrected Jesus. And they whittle it down to two
candidates. And then they got to decide
between the two. We're going to pick this up in
verse 23. And they put forward 2/2 of the
disciples. Joseph called Barsabbas, he's
also called Justice. And Matthias, so they have
justice in Matthias. And they prayed and said, You,
Lord, who know the hearts of all, show which one of these two
you have chosen to take the place in this ministry and
apostleship, from which Judas turned aside to go his own
place. And they cast lots for them.
And the lot fell on Matthias, and he was numbered with the 11
apostles. Casting lots was an ancient
practice. You can read about it all the
way back in Proverbs 16. It's basically a version of
rolling the dice if they did it with stones, but you're just
rolling dice. And so the, the methods actually
used a bunch in the Old Testament whenever people
couldn't get access to God. So we've talked a couple weeks
ago about how access to God in, in that time was difficult.
And so if you couldn't get to the temple or you couldn't get
to the Tabernacle, or you couldn't get to a priest to get
access to God, then what you do is you'd, you'd use this method
of casting lots. It was the equivalent, the
theological equivalent of I'll flip a coin and let God decide
or guide that coin. And it wasn't meant to be
superstitious at all. It was a, it was an honest
acknowledgement that we don't have the internal capacity to
discern this for ourselves. And that sounds kind of crazy
now, and I'll explain why it's crazy now.
But, but in the Old Testament, for a lot of major decisions, we
see them cast lots when they're dividing up the land in Joshua
14, when they go to the promised land, when they're selecting the
scapegoat in Leviticus 16, when they're exposing the sin of
Aachen in Joshua 7, when they're identifying Saul as king in
First Samuel 10. All of these decisions they cast
lots for. It wasn't gambling.
It was a method of deferring to God when direct divine
communication wasn't available. Now, here's why this is kind of
notable here in Acts 1. When we see them do this, it is
the very last time in the Bible they will cast lots.
Never again. And it's not a coincidence that
the author of this book, Luke, he's very deliberate in in
listing out how they did this on purpose because he's about to
contrast it in the next couple verses.
So he knows what he's doing. You see, after Acts 2, which
which we'll read about in just a moment, the early church will
never cast lots for anything. They won't cast lots to select
elders or for mission decisions. In fact, when they send elders
or I'm sorry, when the church in Antioch sends missionaries in
Acts 13, the Holy Spirit speaks directly to them.
It says, set apart Barnabas and Saul.
When Paul doesn't know where to go in Acts 16, he gets a vision.
The dice are gone because what the dice pointed toward is now
living inside the believer. So you don't need an external
source anymore. And it's exactly what Jesus had
already promised. If we go back to his message in
John 1613, He says, But when he the Spirit of truth comes, He
will guide you into all truth. Even later.
James, who's the half brother of Jesus, writes a letter to the
church and he actually says this.
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, ask, not roll, ask.
So church, listen, this is important if you're, if you're
trying to follow Jesus to try to live this Christian life, I want
you to hear this. You don't need a Ouija board,
you don't need divination, you don't need to roll dice.
You have the spirit of the living God, who knows the mind
of the Father living inside of you in the moment here, after
this, this casting of lots in Acts One, it'll end the moment
that you ever have to guess again.
You don't have to guess. If you've ever been paralysed by
a decision, kind of stuck, not knowing the will of God, You're
not supposed to flip coins or read signs or wait for a feeling
that never comes. You have the Spirit of God, you
have the word of God that you have prayer to the Father.
You have wise counsel from others, Spirit led and filled
people. And that is the complete
decision making tool kit of the new covenant.
So they're in this upper room and other than rolling or
casting lots to select a disciple, what is it that they
were doing? Well, back up in the chapter
just slightly to verse 14, the the text is going to list a
bunch of names of people, tells us there's 120.
But look at what they were doing in verse 14.
It says this, all of these, all of these 120 people with 1
accord were devoting themselves to prayer together with the
women and Mary, the mother of Jesus and his brothers.
So this is now 10 days in this room.
They've been sitting in the upper room together waiting,
praying for what Jesus had promised.
Jesus ascends. We read about that last week.
And now for 10 days they've been in this room.
So it's 50 days total since the resurrection.
And they weren't told how long they'd have to wait in the upper
room. They're given no time frame
about how long it would take. So what are they doing up in
that room? Well, number one, they were
persistent. They were persistent.
It says they all join together constantly in prayer.
There's a Greek word there. It's procarturu Ness.
Procarturu Ness is a big long word.
Here's what it means. It means to attend to
constantly. It means to not quit.
It means to endure. That's the way their prayer is
being described in Greek. This wasn't a one time prayer
meeting. This was 10 days of non-stop
prayer in the upper room. No breaks.
They weren't killing time. They were positioning
themselves. There was a revival a couple
years ago back on a college campus on the East Coast.
And it started as a as a Sunday evening evening Bible study.
And the next thing you know, it just became constant prayer day
after day after day. And it actually made national
news. People were flying in to see
this, but what was actually happening was people enduring in
prayer. Secondly, they weren't just
persistent, they were unified. It says they all joined
together. And the actual phrase, the word
that's used here for join together or of 1 accord is used
a bunch in the book of Acts. Intentionally.
It is the word homothumadon. Homothumadon.
It appears 10 times in the book of Acts.
It means of 1 accord, of one mind, of One Direction.
There were no factions in the room.
There were no theological debates about whether the spirit
would or wouldn't come. No one was lobbying for a
preferred agenda. We have to do it my way.
They were of 1 accord, a unity that was itself important for
what was about to happen. See, I personally believe that
the way that you get to that unity is you actually have to
start praying together to get there.
I don't think you get to this unity that we see in the book of
Acts if you're not praying together.
I think 1 leads to the next. And if you want this kind of
Unity Church, come pray together.
Come pray together over and over and over again because prayer
together builds unity together. So they're praying together.
It builds unity together. And 3rd, they were dependent.
Jesus said that they would not be able to do this without the
Spirit. You need to wait to go do this.
They knew they couldn't manufacture what was coming,
they couldn't strategize it, they couldn't fund it, they
couldn't network their way to it.
So 120 people with 0 ability to do what Jesus had called them to
do without the Holy Spirit get up and up a room and their
prayer wasn't, Lord bless what we're about to build.
Their prayer was we can't move without you.
A theologian, John Stott, observes that the waiting period
of those 10 days was not passive.
He says it this way. They were not idle during those
10 days. They were busy in prayer.
Church, we need to be busy in prayer, not not too busy to
pray, busy in prayer. He notes that the early church's
posture of corporate, persistent, unified prayer is
itself a model. It's not just for revival, but
for an ordinary Christian life. Hear me, Church, for the
ordinary Christian life, we should be busy in prayer.
DA Carson commenting on this Greek word homo thermidon is in
the theme that in Acts he actually says this.
He says that every time this word is used in the book of
Acts, it's not coincidental that every time it is used it it
precedes some significant divine moment comes right after it.
So every time the church prays gets in one accord, he uses this
word because the next thing after the church gets in one
accord is something phenomenal from the Spirit.
Unity is not the result of God's blessing.
It is repeatedly shown as the condition to get God's blessing.
When you walk in those glass doors on a Sunday morning, there
are three ES. We call them three ES.
It's a vinyl that's on the door. When you walk by it, it says
expect, engage, and encourage. It says expect God to move.
Engage with the worship and with the Word of God and encourage
and be encouraged. And we ask you to do that
anytime you walk in here. And it maps directly to the
posture of the 120 in the upper room.
They're expecting God to move. They are engaging in prayer.
They're in one accord. And what we try to model every
Sunday when you come in here is the exact same thing they're
modeling in that upper room. And when they do that, then it
gets spicy. Look at Acts 2, verse one.
When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together
in one place, and suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a
mighty rushing of wind, and in it filled the entire house where
they were sitting. And divided tongues as of fire
appeared to them and rested on each one of them, and they were
filled with the Holy Spirit and begin to speak in other tongues
as the Spirit gave them utterance.
So we're 50 days from the resurrection.
We're also 50 days from the Passover.
They are celebrating a festival called the Feast of Weeks in
Jerusalem right now. And Israel celebrating what was
really an anniversary of the giving of the Mosaic Law back on
Mount Sinai when Moses comes down with the law, the 10
commandments. And here's here's God's word.
And so they celebrate that fifty days after the Passover.
And so thousands of people have gathered in Jerusalem what
happens on the anniversary of the giving of the Law?
God gives them the Spirit, which means that the Law now gets
written on their hearts. This has been prophesied both in
Jeremiah 31 and in Ezekiel 36 had pointed to a moment when God
would no longer use external laws, but rather internal heart
change. The feast of weeks which fell on
this day had come to be associated with the giving of
the Law on Mount Sinai. So it was fitting that the New
Covenant should be inaugurated on this day.
The Law written on the heart, replacing the Law written on
tablets of stone. That didn't replace the Law at
Pentecost. He relocated it.
He moved it from a stone tablet that you have to look at to a
heart you can't ignore. Why?
Because God wants in. It says they heard a sound like
the blowing of a violent wind. Not an actual wind, just the
sound of it. That's that's a repeated pattern
that we see in the Old Testament, the breath of life,
like in the Garden of Eden when God breathes life into Adam, or
in the valley of dry bones where Ezekiel hears the dead bones
come alive through the divine breath of God.
It's a creation moment as the spirit descends on the
believers. But you know what they didn't
see? They didn't see wind.
They saw fire. You know, throughout the Old
Testament when God made his presence visible to people, it
was always fire. Think about the burning Bush
that burned so brightly Moses couldn't even look at it
directly. Or the the pillar of fire
leading Israel through the wilderness, visible to everyone.
1 manifestation for the whole nation.
Or Exodus 19 fire consuming Mount Sinai when the law was
given. This is the anniversary of that
one big fire or big cloud, one pillar, always 1 manifestation
for the for the community. And then in Acts two, verse 3,
it's not one big fire anymore. They saw what seemed to be
tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of
them. So that fire doesn't come down
as a cloud or a pillar. It comes down to begins to
divide 120 times. It becomes individual.
In the Old Testament, there's a story of something called the
Shekinah glory that once filled the Tabernacle.
So overwhelming was this presence, this fire from God,
that the priest couldn't even go into the Tabernacle.
And now that same presence, that visible presence of God, is
splitting itself and dividing itself to each of the individual
believers sitting in the upper room. 120 individual flames.
This is the theological revolution in Acts 2.
God doesn't live in a building anymore, He lives in his people.
The Temple of the Holy Spirit is not in Jerusalem.
It's in every believer in this room and every believer after
that. Martyn Lloyd Jones says that the
transition from the temple to the body is not incidental, it
is the entire point. God always wanted to dwell with
his people. The difference is now he dwells
in his people. The Shekinah glory that filled
the temple, the same fire Moses couldn't look at the same glory
the priest couldn't stand in, divided itself into 120
individual flames landed on 120 ordinary people.
God didn't get smaller, he got more specific.
He got personal. God wants in verse 4.
And they were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak
in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Now there's a festival going on. Now there were dwelling in
Jerusalem, Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven.
And at this sound the multitude came together, and they were
bewildered because each one was hearing them speak in his own
language. And they were amazed and
astonished, saying, are not all of these who are speaking
Galileans? How is it that we hear, each of
us, in his own native language? If you keep reading, what you're
going to see is a list of how many different regions and lands
and languages were all represented, and somehow every
one of them could hear the disciples in their own language.
So we're going to, we're going to take a quick sidebar from our
story because I want to make a theological point.
There's a doctrine that is introduced here that's it's a
bit controversial because it involves speaking in tongues.
That's what we're reading here, speaking in tongues, and I don't
want to skip past it without addressing it.
So here's what you need to know. The Bible actually addresses two
different types of manifestation of speaking in tongues, and
they're actually separate things, distinct gifts.
The first one is what we're reading here in Acts chapter 2.
It is speaking known human languages, real people hearing
their real native languages spoken fluently by Galileans who
had never learned of those languages.
And the purpose is very clear. The Gospel is crossing every
linguistic or language barrier all at the same time.
That's what's happening in the text.
Now there's a second type of speaking in tongues that we read
about in First Corinthians 14 when the apostle Paul addresses
it with a church and he writes this, anyone who speaks in a
tongue does not speak to people, but to God.
Paul calls it a personal private, and he and, and it is
edifying to the speaker. And he doesn't forbid this type
of speaking in tongues. He actually says, I, I would
like every one of you to speak in tongues.
But he does regulate it in a corporate setting without an
interpreter. He would say that needs to
remain private because it's between you and God.
Gordon Fee, one of the foremost New Testament scholars on the
Holy Spirit, says it this way as a gift of private prayer and
utterance. Paul speaks of tongues quite
favorably, obviously a topic that for Paul is very personal
and private. The breakdown, the controversy
for him has occurred when what is personal and private comes
into the public assembly since it has no facility for
strengthening others. If you're, if you're pretty new
to Christianity and and you're like, why are we taking time on
this? People have lost their minds
over this. OK, there is some some real
debate on both sides of this issue and let me tell you where
our church stands on this. We believe that we would call
this an open handed issue. There are Christians who
genuinely love Jesus and believe that certain gifts ceased after
the age of the apostles. We call that theological term
cessationism. There are also Christians who
believe that none of those gifts ceased and are still active
today. We would call that
continuationism. Both can worship here.
Neither breaks the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Now we're open handed regardless of what you believe.
We would say there is a biblical way to honor God regardless of
how you believe. But here's what we are not open
handed on. The Holy Spirit is real, present
and active. However He chooses to show up.
We want to be a people who are positioned to receive Him in a
biblical manner. In my opinion, one of the most
interesting things that happens in Acts chapter 2 is everything
seems very new, But the reality is I think it's actually the end
of a beautiful story that started all the way back in
Genesis. And I want you to, I want to
show you something that happened in Genesis.
And if you're unfamiliar with the Bible, if you're new, I'll
do my best to kind of summarize what happens.
But there's a, there's a crazy weird story in Genesis Chapter
11 where people decide they're going to build a building to
God. They can actually build a tower
tall enough to get to God. In Genesis 11, chapter 1, it
says this. Now the whole earth had one
language and the same words, and they're all together in one
place. Verse 4 Then they said, Come,
let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the
heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be
dispersed over the face of the whole earth.
And so they're building the tower to God, and God
intervenes. Verse 9.
Therefore it's name was called Babel because the Lord confused
the language on all the earth. If you've read the story, he
comes in, he everyone suddenly speaking different languages and
he scatters them. And from there the Lord
dispersed them over the face of the earth.
So in arrogance, humanity decided we would build to God
yet another moment where we decided we could be God or like
God. And God responds to the pride
and the rebellion by striking people with confusion.
And the result is division, tribalism, the origin of every
language barrier, cultural conflict, and national war in
human history. Here's here's why I'm bringing
that up. The exact opposite happens in
Acts 2. It's the end of that story.
You see, in Acts 2, instead of man building to God, God comes
to man. We go in reverse.
Instead of one group of people being scattered into many, we
actually get all of these different languages and all
these different nationalities gathered into one.
So instead of being scattered, God is gathering, and instead of
withdrawing his presence, he's pouring it out.
Instead of the building stopping like it did in Babel, the
building of the church has just begun and has continued to this
day. In Acts 29 through 11, Luke
lists 15 different regions. Scholars like NT Wright and
Daryl Bach note that this list roughly maps into all of the
known inhabited world. It's a symbolic inventory, The
scattered nations of Babel now all being called together into
one place, hearing one message in their own languages.
Just think about the direction. Babel is humanity ascending
toward God. Pentecost is God descending
toward us. This is not just a reversal of
the language miracle. It's a reversal of the entire
theological posture of humanity before God.
Babel says we will reach up and grab you.
Pentecost says I have come down to get you.
This is the gospel compressed into architecture and it answers
the deepest human question. Can I get to God with a better
one? What if he already came to get
you? That's what Christ's blood on
the cross has accomplished. Jesus made a way for you and I.
Now there's another point here because he he very purposefully
mentions that the crowd says these are Galileans.
And so we could talk about how Galileans were very uneducated
men suddenly doing amazing things for God in the Spirit.
But I can't see how that would be applicable for a church in
Oildale. So we'll move on.
What do we do with this story? It's beautiful, it's amazing,
it's crazy. But now what?
Kent Hughes says this in his commentary about the book of
Acts. He says a grandson asked his
grandfather, Grandpa, what is the wind?
The old fisherman replied, I cannot explain the wind to you,
but I can teach you how to raise the sails.
So you can't manufacture the Holy Spirit, you can't produce
Pentecost, you can't engineer a revival, but you can position
yourself to receive what Jesus is ready to give.
The 120 disciples that are in the upper room raised 3 sales.
These are the same 3 sales available to you.
And I, number one, raise the sale of persistent prayer.
That doesn't say that the 120 prayed once and then waited.
They prayed constantly for 10 days.
Persistent prayer is not trying to change God's mind.
It's the act of making yourself available.
It is posturing ourselves toward God and staying there.
There are people in my life that I have been praying for for
years, and it doesn't seem like there's been any progress.
But nothing that I do as a pastor is more important than my
prayer life. Nothing.
And there are weeks that I am so terrible at being consistent in
prayer that it is embarrassing. In fact, I often times think
that God drives and allows suffering in my life so that He
will drive up the desperation and urgency for His presence.
And my question for you, is there someone, something in your
life that you prayed about once, twice, three times and you gave
up on? Can you imagine if the disciples
had quit on day 7? The second sale they raised is
the sale of unity. The Spirit came when they were
in one accord, homothymidon in one accord.
Division in the body is not just a relational problem between
people, it is a spiritual blockage.
The opposite of Pentecost is a church that is scattered.
While in the same room every week in your life and in your
church, you will have opportunities for disunity.
They will be available to you. You'll have opportunities to be
offended. They are available to you.
You have opportunities to find things wrong with this church.
That's not that hard. In fact, every person who's ever
been part of a church has experienced church hurt.
I'm not minimizing church abuse. That's different.
What I'm saying is that to be around other messy humans is at
some point to be hurt. Amen.
In fact, I've never been hurt as deeply as I have by people in
the church, this church. But we have a choice to be
offended, to be wounded and stay there, or to prayerfully choose
unity, to love inside the conflict, to forgive freely, to
think the best of others. In fact, we're we're in our
leadership development. We teach once a month.
This thing called Supercharged over in the Chapel.
It's tonight at 5:00 PM. You're all welcome.
We are going to teach on thinking the best of others.
I have days as a pastor where it feels like I can't stop crying.
And yet in the midst of that, God has done his most beautiful
work in my life and through this church.
And I'm trying to tell you that it's worth it.
It's worth it. Is there a relationship in your
life, in your small group, in your family, in your marriage
where you're carrying division that needs to be resolved?
Because we see a pattern where the, the, the Spirit empowers A
unified body. 3rd sail, raise the sail of expectancy.
They weren't in the upper room hoping for the best and crossing
their fingers. They were waiting for Jesus
because he said to wait. Expectancy is faith with an
address. It's believing that God is going
to do something specific. You know, every time we preach a
message in this church, I actually expect that they're
going to be people that are giving their life to Christ.
Every single time, every single time we preach, every single
time Pastor Dave or Richard or anyone comes up and preaches a
message and gives an invitation, I'm looking around because I
expect God to save people. And you can say, hey, that's
naive or that's unrealistic, but I'm on my toes waiting for God
to move because I'd rather be a fool than miss it.
Call me a fool, but don't let me miss a move of God and then
wonder why my faith is boring. We say we believe in a real act
of God, but are you expecting him to move?
When you walk into this church on a Sunday morning, when you
sit down to pray during the week, do you genuinely believe
that the Spirit of God is present and active?
Or have you gotten so practical, so managed, so efficient that
the Holy Spirit is an afterthought?
We can't make the wind blow, but we can raise the sails.
We can be persistent. We can fight for unity.
We can be expectant. And when we do that, when a when
120 people came together and the wind comes, everything changes
because God wants in For some of you here today or or maybe
watching online, maybe you've never surrendered your life to
Christ. And so you, you hear me that God
wants in that, that he desires to save you.
And you're not even sure what that means.
Let me explain. Jesus died on a cross to pay the
penalty for your sin. Three days later he walked out
of that tomb alive, and He is offering you salvation,
forgiveness, and eternal life. The Bible says that to be saved
you must believe in your heart that God raised Him from the
dead, and you must confess with your mouth that He is your Lord.
So I want to offer you a chance to do that today, to let Him in.
If you'd like to surrender your life to Christ and follow him as
King, I'm going to lead you in a prayer.
Will you all bow with me for just a moment?
close your eyes. If you want to declare today
with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, just pray this after me.
Jesus, I know I'm a Sinner who can't save myself.
I want you to save me and adopt me into your family.
I surrender everything to you and I receive your promises of
forgiveness, of adoption into your family, and of eternal
life. Be my Lord.
Please Jesus, if you said that prayer for the very first time,
would you be brave and raise your hand for me to see Thank
you, thank you, thank you can put your hands down in Jesus
