Acts 2:17-21
17 ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. 18 And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy. 19 I will show wonders in heaven above And signs in the earth beneath: Blood and fire and vapor of smoke. 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord. 21 And it shall come to pass That whoever calls on the name of the Lord Shall be saved.’
God poured His Spirit into His people, and they spoke of His glory and things He did and would do - all so those who through Jesus Christ called on His name to be saved from the justice of God's due anger for their cosmic rebellion (sin) against the Most High. God revealed His plan through His Son and the apostles who wrote it down for us to live by. This was the oneness from John 17 'that was now the Church.
