The verses Pastor explores today are a fascinating section of Scripture that hold a mystery around the word "house." Was the place of the first Pentecost in a house, like maybe the Upper Room? Or was it referring to The Temple, the Holy House, the House above all other houses? And why does that make a difference?

Daniel: When Kingdoms Collide (14) - Supernatural!
Awake Us Now
In our world today, as in Daniel's day, there is a cultural divide between two world views: the Natural and the Supernatural.
