    Ascension 2016

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on May 4, 2016
     | 5,392 views

    The description of the ascension of Jesus to heaven is an interesting one. It shows us how consumed we may be with the world and its values instead of being consumed with the Kingdom of God and the mission which Jesus gave to us.

    This coming Thursday is the day that some churches celebrate as Ascension Day because we know that Jesus appeared among His disciples for forty days after His resurrection and then He ascended into heaven. Normally we would celebrate the ascension of Jesus into heaven on the Sunday after ...read more

    Where Christians receive the power to carry out personal evangelism

    Introduction: In light of the events of the past week (SC decision and the violence in the world) the question has come up if this is the End of the World? Maybe not the end of the world, but the end of or nation as we know it. The residents of Europe in 1939 may have asked themselves the same ...read more

    The Holy Spirit is given to empower Jesus' people for ministry and witness.

    Jesus is Alive! Most of your Bibles will reveal that the title “Acts” that we commonly use is just the shortened version of a longer title that has been given to the book.

    Drawing On The Power Of God

     | 12,240 views

    At Pentecost, God enabled Jesus' disciples to do what they could not do on their own. God fulfilled Jesus' promise to spread the gospel to all lands, as the pilgrims heard the good news in thier own language. God calls us, too, to be his witnesses.

    Acts 2:1-21 Drawing on the Power of God A few days after the Thanksgiving holiday of 2016, Eric Heffelmire was working on his GMC truck at his family home in Vienna, Virginia. As he recalls, “I was on my back, face up, and I was trying to get some corroded brake lines when apparently the jack ...read more

    An ongoing look at the call of God to be His church.

    Acts 29 The Church October 2, 2022 If I asked you to turn to Acts 29, in your Bibles, you wouldn’t find it. You would think something’s a little off with Pastor Michael today. More so than usual. Because there really is no Acts 29. It’s like Moses running a special telling us there’s an 11th ...read more

     | 2,728 views

    Guidance can be difficult and we may struggle with it. God often send to us the man with a pitcher. We don't have much of a picture of what lies ahead, but the Lord is there. Just take note of the man with a pitcher.

    THE MAN WITH THE PITCHER, NOT THE PICTURE, JUST THE PITCHER [1]. THE MESSAGE FROM PILGRIM’S PROGRESS Who has read Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan? I love that book. Many decades ago, and all through the 1800s etc., nearly everyone read Pilgrim’s Progress, even non-Christians. Sometimes in ...read more

    Jesus is preparing to ascend back into Heaven to sit down at the right hand of God. But before He leaves, He commands and commissions His men to reach the world with the Gospel, the Good News that Jesus saves. He tells them to wait for the Promise of the Father, which is the Holy Ghost!

    Acts 1:1-8 While We Wait April 24, 2022 Luke inscribes in his gospel account and also in his historical account of the Acts of the Apostles to the dignitary Theophilus our Lord’s last meeting with His disciples while He was here on earth. He is preparing to ascend back into Heaven ...read more

    After the resurrection day appearances of Jesus, He made many other important appearances during the next 40 days until He returned to heaven. Those important appearances included He gave the great commission, recommissioned Peter, and ascended before their eyes. He is coming again!

    Just What Does "taken Up" Mean For Jesus?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 20, 2022
     | 1,625 views

    When I was ten, that meant that Jesus went up into the clouds and literally sat at the right hand of the Father, on a throne in the clouds. But no more.

    Ascension Day One commonality that men and women my age have in the U.S., no matter what religion we were raised in, is the story of Jesus.
