The Angel of the Lord and the Fire of Pentecost
Long before the fire of Pentecost fell in the Upper Room, the Angel of the Lord ascended in flame from an altar in Judges 13. In this mysterious encounter with Manoah and his wife, we see a striking foreshadowing of Christ, the Holy Spirit, and God’s desire to dwell with His people. What begins as an obscure Old Testament moment becomes a powerful glimpse of Pentecost, mission, and divine presence.
