Multiethnic Festival(Acts 2:9~11)
Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism Cretans and Arabs--we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!”
Hymn #505 Christ for the Whole Wide World(Unified Hymn 268)
A small but sincere festival must arise for the multi ethnic Remnants. The word “festival” is used when there’s deep joy. Multiethnic people should come here to receive the most important answer of their lives.
1. Mission Festival
The multiethnic people gathered at the field of Acts 2:9~11. What they need most is a mission festival. They absolutely must be given a mission. The Three Feasts and Pentecost(Acts 2:1~4), along with worship and the future, must be conveyed(Acts 2:17~18 ). Then they should return to their own countries with a mission for their nations(Acts 2:9~11).
2. Healing Festival
There must be a healing festival. The event where the lame man from birth who sat at the temple gate was raised up was a message sent to multiethnic people around the world(Acts 3:1~12). It’s because the temple was the place where Jewish people from across the world, and those connected to them, came during the feasts. A healing festival took place in Samaria, where the Gospel was proclaimed to the multiethnic people who had been cast aside(Acts 8:4~8). It was remarkable that the Ethiopian eunuch, who had come to Jerusalem to worship, bought a scroll of God’s Word and asked about Christ. At that moment, the Holy Spirit worked, and through Philip a healing festival unfolded(Acts 8:26~40).
3. Commissioning Festival
A commissioning festival must take place. Paul entered the synagogues and sent out disciples for the future of the world(Acts 17:1, 18:4, 19:8).
Multiethnic people must realize the mission God gives, receive healing from the longstanding things, and return as disciples. When the Remnants receive the Word, they must see today’s answer. Powerful nations may have the resources to carry out world evangelization and reach the multiethnic people, but the 5,000 tribes don’t. Coming from another country to this land isn’t easy. You should offer them gratitude and encouragement. You must always finish well and continue faithfully.
