    "Had Been With Jesus”

    Contributed by Bubot Parago on Nov 10, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,293 views

    I believe that the propensity of our faith in the Gospel is to move us to boldly speak without compromise and obey to do what we have seen and heard so that we might speak.

    I. had been with Jesus, GIVES US BOLDNESS: “They saw the boldness of Peter and John…” (v13) Free From Fear This is true courage which comes by faith. Yes; it is this boldness which comes by faith which makes men like Peter and John’s “...I will not fear,” just like David, “though the earth be ...read more

    Can You Be Threatened?

     | 9,994 views

    Many in the Body of Christ are living in compromise. They are allowing the world to dictate what they will and will not believe about the Bible. How does this happen? Peter and John's confrontation with the religious leaders in Acts 4 shows us how.

    I was thinking about Bro. Alain’s message this morning and what saddens me so much is how much of the Body of Christ is living in compromise and we don’t even realize it. And I thought about a Republican senator here in Ohio who came out strong and hard against homosexuality. He came out strong and ...read more

    Part 6 of this series focuses on how our lifestyle can give Satan the power to threaten us into silence when it comes to speaking the Word of God in our lives and the lives of others.

    Satan’s Battle Tactics Part 6 Scriptures: John 10:10; Acts 4:1-21; Matthew 10:28 Last week we traveled home to bury Nikki’s grandmother.

    Being A Bold Witness Series

    We need to be bold in our witness for Christ. We are one generation away from being a pagan nation.

    This sermon series entitled “The Ends of the Earth” is about how we, as the body of Christ, have been directed to reach a lost world for Him. So how are we doing? Not how has the church done in the past, but how is the church in reaching the lost doing today? The fact is, we are but one ...read more

    Peter and John are emboldened by the Spirit to defend themselves before the Sanhedrin.

    These Are not Idiots Acts 4:5-22 Peter and John had been under great pressure before when Jesus was arrested by both the Temple guard and Roman soldiers. Peter made a temporary and futile attempt at bravado before he caved miserably. The two of them followed at a distance and came into the ...read more

    Undeniable Jesus

    I was reminded this week about the power and influence a person’s testimony can have on others, religious or not. Saints where are our stories of faith? Where are our testimonies to the power of Jesus name? Have our voices become muted to the truth?

    Acts 4:1-22 Undeniable Jesus Message: Oscar Wilde has been attributed with the phrase “no good deed goes unpunished”. The phrase suggest that in order to accomplish a truly good deed one has to suffer bad consequences in order to see a good outcome. Much of Christian ministry is like this. We ...read more

    When doing good and right or speaking up for Jesus is hardest we should just do it anyway.

    “JUST DO IT ANYWAY!” ACTS 4:8-20; 5:25-29 David P. Nolte There are things in life that are hard to do, but if they are important enough, and if they are right, we do them anyway. There are sacrifices we are called upon to make that we find inconvenient and excessively costly; but if we are ...read more

    Jesus said He would build His church. What we read in Acts 4 is how He intended to do it. What do we read there that helps us understand our part in Christ's construction crew?

    There’s the true story of a southern church that had been stressing the importance of witnessing to people. One particularly slow young man in the congregation took the idea to heart, but he wasn’t quite sure how to do it. Then, that Sunday, a skeptic visited the church one Sunday, and the boy ...read more

    What Are You Holding Back

    Contributed by Walter Troup on Apr 13, 2019
     | 16,223 views

    What keeps you from giving everything to God? Check out two sets of people who were following Christ and made two different decisions about their lives, causing two different outcomes.

    This morning I want us to look at two sets of people: one set held nothing back from God, and God used them to change their world and ours too. The other set, not so much. Because they kept something back from God, their lives came to a quick end. Before we look into the lives and circumstances ...read more

    If what Peter and John and the others claim is true, what will happen to the religious establishment? They'll have to kill the movement to survive themselves.

    Good morning. This is Hannah Batyoel from Inside Jerusalem, reporting on a breaking story that began late yesterday afternoon when two Galileans were arrested for creating a disturbance in the temple precincts. But first, a backgrounder from our religion correspondent, Shlomo Yehudi. Good ...read more

    When Jesus told us we needed to tell others about our faith in Him, did He leave us to do it all by ourselves? Or does God help us when we witness?

    About 350 years before Christ was born in Bethlehem, there was a man they called Alexander the Great. Over a period of 15 years Alexander the Great was in almost constant warfare and conquered most of known world. He never defended a walled city, almost always met his enemy in the open field, and ...read more
