    In the brief record of Luke made about the Holy Spirit’s activities in the Antioch church we find out about the power of the Holy Spirit.

    One of the most fascinating stories in the Bible is Ezekiel’s account of the valley of dry bones (Ezekiel 37:1-14). Ezekiel says the hand of the Lord is upon him and the Lord sets Ezekiel in a valley of dry bones. The Lord told Ezekiel to preach to the dry bones and tell them God says, “I will ...read more

    Our God is a holy God and we as His children are called to be a people ‘set apart’ for the Lord. Success is ours when we choose to walk in holiness, and failures are times when we must take stock of our lives to see where we have failed.

    The promise of God as given to us at the onset of this year was from Act 11:21 “And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number believed, and turned unto the Lord.” (KJV) As we meditated and studied on the various aspects of the Hand of God, we realized that God’s hand protects us, His ...read more

First, Luke describes the growth of the Church and how the Gospel reached as far away as Antioch. Then he adds a brief note, where one of the New Testament prophets—Agabus—made a prediction about a ...read more

    Even in the face of persecution and life's challenges, how different could we live if we chose to be faithful only to Christ? Even though the 1st century church faced incredible difficulties, God was still faithful to them, and we can learn from that right now!

    A church split could have occurred in the Jerusalem church, but it didn't. That's the background of Acts 11:1-21. But a subtext is the role the Word of God played in the entire passage. Thats the subject of this passage.
