This is a very good lecture from one of the Strange Fire conferences.
Quote: "Now it’s that particular point that I want to address today because I think the fundamental weakness of neo-Pentecostal, or Charismatic theology is that in my opinion its view of Pentecost is too low and that it’s understanding of the significance of Pentecost in redemptive history differs from the Apostles understanding of that experience."
Sproul goes over the Holy Spirit's reclamation of Jews, the God-fearers, the Samaritans, and the Gentiles in the Acts following Pentecost.
Sproul doesn't connect the modern peoples' names with the Old Testament names, one for one, Genesis with Acts in detail. Michael Heiser shows this very well. I will post the Heiser lecture later under this topic if I can find it, as I found this redemptive work of God one of the most interesting "scholarly" things I've learned. It is an easy thing to scatter; but this reclamation is a mighty demonstration of faithfulness by God.
