194:0.1 About one o'clock, as the one hundred and twenty [[believers]] were [[engaged]] in [[prayer]], they all became [[aware]] of a [[strange]] [[presence]] in the room. At the [[same time]] these [[disciples]] all became [[conscious]] of a new and [[profound]] sense of [[spiritual]] [[joy]], [[security]], and [[confidence]]. This new [[consciousness]] of spiritual [[strength]] was [[immediately]] followed by a strong [[urge]] to go out and publicly [[proclaim]] the [[gospel]] of [[the kingdom]] and the good news that [[Jesus]] had [[Resurrection|risen]] from the [[dead]].[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_acts#Acts.2]

194:0.2 [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] stood up and [[declared]] that this must be the coming of the [[Spirit of Truth]] which [[the Master]] had [[promised]] them and [[proposed]] that they go to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_temple the temple] and begin the [[proclamation]] of the good news [[committed]] to their hands. And they did just what [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] suggested.

194:0.3 These men had been [[trained]] and [[instructed]] that the [[gospel]] which they should [[preach]] was the [[fatherhood]] of [[God]] and the [[sonship]] of man, but at just this [[moment]] of [[spiritual]] [[ecstasy]] and [[personal]] [[triumph]], the best tidings, the greatest news, these men could [[think]] of was the [[fact]] of the [[Resurrection|risen]] [[the Master|Master]]. And so they went forth, [[endowed]] with [[power]] from on high, [[preaching]] glad tidings to [[the people]]—even [[salvation]] through [[Jesus]]—but they unintentionally stumbled into the [[error]] of [[substituting]] some of the [[facts]] [[associated]] with the [[gospel]] for the gospel [[message]] itself. [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] unwittingly led off in this [[mistake]], and others followed after him on down to [[Paul, the Apostle|Paul]], who [[created]] a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_religious_movement new religion] out of the new version of the [[Gospel|good news]].

194:0.4 The [[gospel]] of [[the kingdom]] is: the [[fact]] of the [[fatherhood]] of [[God]], coupled with the resultant [[truth]] of the [[sonship]]-brotherhood of men. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Christianity Christianity], as it [[developed]] from that day, is: the [[fact]] of [[God]] as [[the Father]] of the Lord [[Jesus]] [[Christ]], in [[association]] with the [[experience]] of [[believer]]-fellowship with the [[Resurrection|risen]] and [[glorified]] [[Christ]].

194:0.5 It is not [[strange]] that these [[spirit]]-[[infused]] men should have seized upon this [[opportunity]] to [[express]] their [[feelings]] of [[triumph]] over the [[forces]] which had sought to destroy [[the Master|their Master]] and end the [[influence]] of his [[teachings]]. At such a [[time]] as this it was easier to [[remember]] their [[personal]] [[association]] with [[Jesus]] and to be thrilled with the [[assurance]] that [[the Master]] still lived, that their [[friendship]] had not ended, and that [[Spirit of Truth|the spirit]] had indeed come upon them even as he had [[promised]].

194:0.7 And when all of this is taken into [[consideration]], it is not [[difficult]] to [[understand]] how these men came to [[preach]] a new [[gospel]] about [[Jesus]] in the place of their former [[message]] of the [[fatherhood]] of [[God]] and the brotherhood of men.
