The First Six Seals, Part 1

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Feb 13, 2014

As the Tribulation begins, words can barely describe the times that are ahead of the inhabitants of Earth. Christians today ought to live and act with urgency to tell others about Jesus, and this chapter begins to show us why!

Why I Need To Read My Bible Series

What To Do With God’s Word

Contributed by Chuck Sligh on Sep 7, 2015

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.

What to Do with God’s Word TEXT: Acts 11:1-21 – “And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God. 2 And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him, 3 Saying, Thou wentest ...read more

Against His Own Self-Interest Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 7, 2012

Peter! Wake Up!

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 31, 2016

Can You Be Threatened?

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Feb 4, 2018

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

Paul's Sermon & Healing At Troas Series

Contributed by John Lowe on May 17, 2017

Luke did not mention the collection in connection with the journey to Jerusalem, which Romans 15:25-28 clearly indicates was undertaken to deliver the gift. Why is Acts silent on the subject? Was there ultimately some problem with the collection?
