In His farewell discourses, Jesus Christ repeatedly promised to send His Apostles the Holy Spirit, for example in John 15: 26: "But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me." This promise was fulfilled on Pentecost when the Apostles and disciples were filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts 2: 1-4).
God acted directly in both of these fundamental events, and this symbolically prefigures the sacrament of Holy Sealing: He sealed Jesus with the Holy Spirit and testified that He was the Son of God. He sealed the Apostles–and the believers who had fellowship with them–with the Holy Spirit.
After the Pentecost sermon, when those who had come to believe in Christ asked him what they should do, Peter answered: "Repent, and let every one of you be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit" (Acts 2: 38). This shows that Holy Baptism is a prerequisite for receiving the Holy Spirit.
The centurion Cornelius was an exception: here God gave the gift of the Holy Spirit directly to non-baptised souls in order to show Apostle Peter that salvation was now also accessible to the Gentiles. Therefore, in this special case, Holy Baptism was only administered after the dispensation of the Holy Spirit (Acts 10).

Moses was a prophet of the Abrahamic religions and the youngest son of Amram and Jochebed. It was Moses who was destined to lead the children of Israel from Egypt and receive for them the Holy Torah on Mount Sinai.
Story Summary of the Birth of Moses
Many years had passed since the death of Joseph. New kings were enthroned in Egypt who had no appreciation for how Joseph had saved their country during a great famine. The birth of Moses would mark the beginning of God's plan to free his people from 400 years of Egyptian slavery.
The Hebrew people became so many in Egypt that Pharaoh began to fear them. He believed if an enemy attacked, the Hebrews might ally themselves with that enemy and conquer Egypt. To prevent that, Pharaoh ordered that all newborn Hebrew boys must be killed by the midwives to keep them from growing up and becoming soldiers.
Out of loyalty to God, the midwives refused to obey. They told Pharaoh that the Jewish mothers, unlike Egyptian women, gave birth quickly before the midwife arrived.
A handsome male child was born to Amram, of the tribe of Levi, and his wife Jochebed. For three months Jochebed hid the baby to keep him safe. When she could do that no longer, she got a basket made of bulrushes and reeds, waterproofed the bottom with bitumen and pitch, put the baby in it and set the basket on the Nile River.
Pharaoh's daughter happened to be bathing in the river at the time. When she saw the basket, she had one of her handmaidens bring it to her. She opened it and found the baby, crying. Knowing he was one of the Hebrew children, she took pity on him and planned to adopt him as her son.
The baby's sister, Miriam, was watching nearby and asked Pharaoh's daughter if she should get a Hebrew woman to nurse the baby for her. Ironically, the woman Miriam brought back was Jochebed, the child's mother, who nursed her own baby until he could be weaned and raised in the house of Pharaoh's daughter.
Pharaoh's daughter named the child Moses, which in Hebrew means "drawn out of the water" and in Egyptian was close to the word for "son."

Simon Peter, Thomas from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. Simon Peter told them that he was going out to fish, and they said, they will go with him. So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing. Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus. He called out to them, and asked them if they haven’t gotten any fish and they said no. He said told them to throw their net on the right side of the boat and that they will find some fishes. When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish. Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” As soon as Simon Peter heard him say, “It is the Lord,” he wrapped his outer garment around him (for he had taken it off) and jumped into the water. The other disciples followed in the boat, towing the net full of fish because they were not far from shore, about a hundred yards. When they landed, they saw a fire of burning coals there with fish on it, and some bread. Jesus then told them to bring some of the fish they have just caught. So Simon Peter climbed back into the boat and dragged the net ashore. It was full of large fish, but even with so many the net was not torn. Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” None of the disciples dared ask him, “Who are you?” They knew it was the Lord. Jesus came, took the bread and gave it to them, and did the same with the fish. This was now the third time Jesus appeared to his disciples after he was raised from the dead.

On that particular day, the disciples were all gathered at one place when a sound from heaven in the form of a rushing wind filled the house wherein they were gathered. There were tongues of fire that rested on the head of each of them and suddenly, they were filled with the Holy Ghost and they started speaking in tongues.
Many people had come on pilgrimage to Jerusalem from all parts of the then world and they had gathered that day. They had gathered to listen to the Apostles. Such people were surprised because they were hearing the Apostles speak in their languages. The pilgrims asked whether the Apostles were not Galileans. They asked why they could hear them in their native languages.
Some, however, accused them of being filled with new wine. In other words, the disciples were drunk. Then Peter stood up to refute the allegation. He told the gathering the people were not drunk as they were saying because it was just the third hour of the day. (Drinking at such an early hour attracted fines)
Peter said what was happening was already foretold by Prophet Joel, when God said in the last days he would pour out his spirit upon everybody. The sons and daughters shall prophesy. God said, He would pour out his spirit on both men and maid-servants so that they would also prophesy.
