What is the second Pentecost?
A:Various modern religious leaders have spoken of a "second Pentecost" to draw attention to a reform or movement they feel warrants attention. However, there ware always, already, two Pentecosts. Acts of the Apostles says that on the day of Pentecost, everyone that was in the upper room, was filled with the Holy Spirit coming down on them as tongues of fire. They spoke in tongues as the spirit gave them the utterance. This was the Christian Pentecost.The Jews also celebrated a Pentecost from the second century BCE onwards, and hence in Jesus' day, in memory of the giving of the Law on Mount Sinai. Also known as Shavuot, it takes place fifty days after Passover, just as the Christian Pentecost takes place fifty days after Easter. Numbers 11:25 tells us that on that occasion, the spirit of God came down on the seventy elders and they began to prophesy in ecstasy.There are enough parallels to the earlier account to raise doubts about the historicity of the Christian Pentecost, which really was the second Pentecost.
