The history of Christianity keeps the memory of many great events. In order to make it easier to navigate them and not miss an important day, many believers use the Orthodox calendar. However, there are only a few major holidays, and one of them is the Feast of the Holy Trinity. How much do we know about him? If you ask the first person you meet about what the Trinity holiday is celebrated in the Christian world, he will most likely say that this day symbolizes the trinity of the divine essence: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. While this is true, it is not all there is to know about this great day.

How the Trinity holiday came about
According to Holy Scripture, on the fiftieth day after Christ was resurrected, a real miracle happened. At nine o'clock in the morning, when people were going to the temple for prayer and sacrifice, a noise arose over the Zion upper room, as if from a stormy wind. This noise began to be heard in every corner of the house in which the apostles were, and suddenly fiery tongues appeared above their heads, which slowly descended oneach of them. This flame had an extraordinary property: it shone, but did not burn. But even more amazing were those spiritual properties that filled the hearts of the apostles. Each of them felt a huge surge of energy, inspiration, joy, peace and ardent love for God. The apostles began to praise the Lord, and then it turned out that they did not speak their native Hebrew, but other languages they did not understand. So the ancient prophecy was fulfilled, predicted by John the Baptist (Gospel of Matthew, 3:11). On this day, the Church was born, and in honor of this, the Trinity holiday appeared. By the way, not everyone knows that this event has another name - Pentecost, which means that it is celebrated fifty days after Easter.

What is the significance of the Trinity holiday
Some people consider this event just a fantasy of the authors of the Bible. Since most often this unbelief is explained by ignorance of the Holy Scriptures, we will tell you what happened next. Seeing what was happening with the apostles, people began to gather around them. And even then there were skeptics who laughed and attributed everything that happened to the influence of wine. Other people were perplexed, and seeing this, the apostle Peter stepped forward and explained to the audience that the descent of the Holy Spirit is the fulfillment of ancient prophecies, including the prediction of Joel (Joel 2:28-32), which is aimed at saving people. This first sermon was very short and at the same time simple, but since Peter's heart was filled with divine grace, many decided that dayto repent, and by evening the number of those baptized and converted to the Christian faith had grown from 120 to 3,000 people.

It is not for nothing that the Orthodox Church considers this date its birthday. After this event, the apostles began to preach the Word of God throughout the world, and everyone had the opportunity to find their true path and find the right guidelines in life. Knowing all the details of this grandiose event, it is difficult to remain a skeptic and unbeliever. It remains to add that the Trinity holiday in 2013 was celebrated on June 23, and next year, 2014, this event will be celebrated on June 8. Meanwhile, next year's Easter falls on April 20th.
