    A Pattern Of Devotion

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 16, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,920 views

    Four distinguishing marks of the New Testament Church.

    A PATTERN OF DEVOTION. Acts 2:42-47. Three thousand souls ‘gladly received (Peter’s) word’ and ‘were baptised’ that day (cf. Acts 2:41) - yet, the revival of Pentecost was not yet over. To substantiate that we should realise the significance of the verse at the end of our present passage: “And the ...read more

    The Unstoppable Resurrection

    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 17, 2017
     | 7,090 views

    The Resurrection was unstoppable because Death had no legal right to hold Jesus, because Jesus was the origin of all life & predated death, and because God the Father prophesied that Jesus would rise, and God's words can't return void!

    THE UNSTOPPABLE RESURRECTION Acts 2:24 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Kevin Ramsdell is an airline agent specializing in customer service. While on duty at Detroit Metro Airport, he was approached by a woman so upset that he assumed she must have missed a flight or lost a child. 2. “I left a book on a ...read more

    Stop living an ordinary life. Repent for your sins and proclaim JESUS as your personal SAVIOR. You will receive the Holy Ghost as a gift from the heavenly Father. Like Apostles and many others. You will live an extra ordinary life.

    I have been a cartoon lover from my young age. I watch cartoons for hours and hours without any break. I like cartoons like Superman, X – Men, He – Man and Spider Man.

    A Church At Prayer

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 22, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,468 views

    The time between Ascension and Pentecost: a time of waiting and prayer.

    A CHURCH AT PRAYER. Acts 1:6-14. The eleven surviving Apostles had just been told that they would be ‘baptised with the Holy Ghost not many days from now’ (Acts 1:5). Now they were asking the risen Lord Jesus, “will you now restore the kingdom to Israel?” (Acts 1:6). They were asking, in effect, ...read more

    Effective Witnessing To Christ

    Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Apr 22, 2017
     | 2,811 views

    The reason that the Early Church was able to preach the Gospel is because the Holy Spirit fell on them at Pentecost.

    THE ETERNAL GOD AND THE BREVITY OF LIFE Psalm 90 Psalm 90:1. It is remarkable that the children of Israel survived 400 years in Egypt, and for some of that time under unspeakable oppression. Yet despite their hard labour and sorrow, the LORD had been their dwelling place “from generation to ...read more

    It Adds Up Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Apr 23, 2017
    based on 8 ratings
     | 14,142 views

    One of the problems in too many churches is the issue of "Whose church is this?" The answer to that question is summed up in this simple phrase: "The Lord Adds to His Church." What can that mean to us and how can it change how the church functions?

    OPEN: How many people were baptized into Christ at Pentecost? (about 3000 souls) That story in Acts has inspired many churches, evangelists, missionaries and 1000s of others to attempt to reach as many as they can to bring more and more people to Christ. One such church was one from New Jersey ...read more

    What does it mean to be a smart sheep? We know Jesus is the Good Shepherd but what kind of sheep are we? Let's look at what it means to be a Smart Sheep.

    Why So Many Stay Home On Sunday

     | 6,525 views

    Let's face it church attendance in America is at an all-time low, most Americans avoid church like the plague....WHY?

    Well I have a few reasons: 1. The Church no longer emphasizes the Gospel message (Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Jesus), The message is prosperity, feel good stuff, and political agendas. Jesus said "If I be lifted up I will draw ALL men unto me" , The primary purpose of the church is to ...read more

    The Shedding Abroad Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 2, 2017
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,352 views

    Acts 2 verses 33-35 are strangely, and sadly, not found anywhere in the weekly lectionary. I have sought to address them here, in their immediate context.

    THE "SHEDDING ABROAD" OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. Acts 2:32-36. This is a compact set of verses, brim-full of theological gems: i. The crucifixion of Jesus (Acts 2:36); ii. His resurrection (Acts 2:32); and iii. His exaltation to the right hand of God (Acts 2:33). The passage is also ...read more

    Pentecost 2017 The Spirit helps us in our weakness (Rom. 8:26); brings joy and power for life, and Charismatic gifts, and renews like dewfall.

    Pentecost 2017 1.The Spirit helps us in our weakness (Rom. 8:26). Pentecost is the birthday of the Church.

    When Jesus Ascended Into Heaven Series

    Contributed by John White on May 11, 2017
     | 9,286 views

    One of the most inspiring aspects of this account of the ascension is the realization that someday we will have mthe same capacities demonstrated by our Saviour on this occasion. A simple statement in the Word of God clearly settles the issue for me.

    When Jesus Ascended Into Heaven Acts1:3-14 Do you remember Superman?
