13 Some, however, made fun of them and said, “They have had too much wine.”
14 Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd:
“Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. 15 These people are not drunk, as you suppose. It’s only nine in the morning! 16 No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:
17 “‘In the last days, God says,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your young men will see visions,
your old men will dream dreams.
>>They saw tongues like flames of a fire that separated and came to rest on each of them.
>>And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit ...
....for the very first time. Not just for each them personally, but this was the start of the human race being filled with the Holy Spirit. 2000 years later, we still have the Holy Spirit living in us. A revival does not send tongues of flame down because it is already there. All revivals do is prime us to listen to the voice we already hear and ignore. A month later, most are back to their old ways and blaming it on the idea that the Holy Spirit has left them.
