Pentecost, the day on which we are indwelt by the Spirit, sweeps us up into the dance of the Trinity. We are summoned to the dance floor, [and] the music is grace and love and holiness and peace… The music is supplied by God, and his people are invited to sing and dance along.
Pentecost, my friends, is an invitation to a dance. And it gives us the energy and power to pull it off. Scot McKnight, on www.jesuscreed.org (3-28-08) |
