The outpouring and infilling of the Holy Spirit was followed by carrying out God's missionary duties in Acts 2. This event was also adopted and became a tradition by some Christians in their religious life. The problem is that adoption only emphasizes how outpouring and fulfillment occurs. The purpose of this article is to discover the meaning of the outpouring and infilling of the Holy Spirit in the Love of Apostles in Acts 2: 1-13 and its implications for the church today. The Holy Spirit came upon the apostles and the others on the Day of Pentecost. Those who heard them speaking in tongues were perplexed and asked, “What does this mean?” (Acts 2:12). The question perseveres today. Pentecost teaches us that we should strive to have the same blessed experience as the disciples. God’s sanctions His church with the power of His Spirit so that He will be glorified among the nations. We need to remember that our purpose as the Lord’s church is not to focus on ourselves and our own happiness. Our purpose as Christians is to spread the knowledge of God to all the nations of the earth. If we lose our external focus, with the overall purpose of God’s glory, we may lose our reason for being. The result of this article is that the outpouring and fullness of the Holy Spirit is an important part in successfully carrying out God's mission. The method used in this brief study was a narrative theological analysis.
