How did the message of Pentecost affect St Paul's life?

Answer 1

A:Although Paul says he received the gospel from no man, but by revelation, none of his epistles suggests that he had any knowledge of the Pentecost story. Acts of the Apostles is believed to have been written at the end of the first century or early in the second century, long after the death of St. Paul. The story of the Pentecost in chapter 2 bears a remarkable resemblance to the earlier Jewish Pentecost and was arguably inspired by it, in which case the Pentecost would have been entirely unknown in the first century.

Answer 2

The message of Pentecost, with its emphasis on the spread of the Gospel to all nations, had a profound impact on St. Paul’s life. It inspired him to become a missionary, traveling extensively to share the teachings of Jesus with diverse communities, both Jewish and Gentile. This led to the establishment of numerous Christian churches in different parts of the Roman Empire.
