Pentecost signifies the birth of the church. It was on this day that the Holy Spirit was given to the christian church, and the church exploded as a result, with many miracles demonstrating the truth of the message of Jesus Christ being the son of God. The church expanded with boldness because of the power of the Holy Spirit in ordinary followers of Jesus, in spite of terrible persecution.
It is highly significant that Pentecost is also a Jewish festival, celebrating the harvest that God has given. For the Christian, this will be symbolic of new life that is found in Jesus Christ.
