The Continuing Church of God is pleased to announce its sermon suggested for Pentecost which is at its ContinuingCOG channel:
1:15:28
Predestination and Pentecost
The New Testament church began on Pentecost in Acts 2. Were some predestined to be called in this age? Were any predestined to be lost in this age? Is there an age to come? Is God fair? What does the Bible teach about predestination? Is Satan ruling now? How is there any connection between observing the Spring Harvest of Pentecost and the current harvest of those being called now?

What about “speaking in tongues” and led by the Holy Spirit? (Here is a related link in Spanish/español: Pentecostés: ¿Es más que Hechos 2? plus one by Herbert Armstrong HWA sobre Pentecostés). Here is a YouTube sermon titled Pentecost: Feast of Firstfruits.
