     | 14,533 views

    I would like to thank Pastor Jerry Shirley for sharing this series on Acts. It has been a blessing as well as a great help. I have used these for our church, as I spend my days caring for my dying father.

    “A Vision that Changed the World” Acts 10:1-33 God called the people of Israel to a special relationship with Him. They were to be His people, His witnesses and His missionaries to the rest of the world. But somewhere along the way they forgot their purpose and began to create barriers ...read more

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 5, 2015
     | 8,927 views

    God went to great lengths to bring together Cornelius and Peter. On this meeting hinged the salvation of all the world. With the “keys” of his Apostolic ministry, Peter opened the gates, not realizing that billions of people would enter.

    WHEN PETER GOT HUNGRY Acts 10:1-48 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Things are going badly for Israel. The economy is in a tail spin, inflation is getting higher and immigrants are flooding in from all over. Problems, problems, problems, but what to do? 2.

    Breaking new ground with the gospel.

    THE IMPARTIALITY OF GOD. Acts 9:36-Acts 11:18. Joppa was probably the only truly Jewish seaport in Judah. If nationalistic troubles were to break out, it was as likely to happen in Joppa as in Jerusalem itself. To such a city came Peter (Acts 9:36-43). Caesarea was Herod's seaport, with ...read more

    Cornelius' Conversion Series

    based on 19 ratings
     | 16,027 views

    To establish that this conversion also follows the New Testament’s “pattern of conversions” as outlined in the Book of Acts. This lesson will establish that these uncircumcised Gentiles were added to the church in the same manner as all other believers.

    INTRODUCTION Outline. 1. Cornelius’ Character before the Lord 2. Cornelius’ Call by the Lord 3. Cornelius’ Conversion to the Lord Introductory Remarks. 1. In our lesson today, we continue discussing New Testament conversions. As we continue to plow through this theme, one thing has become ...read more

    There are at least three dynamics to be considered when planning worship.

    “The Word on Worship: Under the Influence” Acts 10: 23-48 Whatever happened to the day when the Sunday worship services could be planned in a matter of minutes. Bulletins were ordered a year at a time with the worship order already printed on the inside cover; the only thing which ...read more

    A turning point for the Church, as God uses two unlikely characters to accomplish His will, taking the Gospel to the Gentiles...breaking down the past barriers.

    Read Acts 10 (long text but needed for context) The question for today, the title of this message is….Can God Himself Change Your Mind? And on the end of that question we could add such things as…. Can God Himself Change Your Mind about what you believe to be true in the Bible? Can ...read more

    Total Forgiveness

    Contributed by Gary Christensen on Mar 7, 2016
     | 3,817 views

    God says we have been cleansed, washed in the Blood of Jesus, made to be "as white as snow." Yet, people doubt. They say, "But, we still sin." Yes, we do, But "The Blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin!" We need to Believe that we have been cleansed.

    Total Forgiveness While reading about Peter's vision, in Acts 10 recently, I received a new insight into how God looks at our Total Forgiveness. Peter is praying, up on a housetop, when he falls into a trance. He sees a “sheet” filled with “all kinds of wild beasts, creeping ...read more

    Isolated. Convinced but confined. What if we busted our bubble and shared hope, faith and the source of it all . . . Jesus? It is time to be Bubble Busters!

    Bubble Busters Pt. 1 - Plastic Bubbles I. Introduction It grabbed my attention. I was riveted to the screen. I don't remember many dramatic tv shows from my youth but this one I remember vividly.

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,989 views

    It was essential for Peter to admit (And us), when prejudice is in operation. Our prejudices and biases always collide with God's grace. God has no favorites; we are all equal in his sight. He welcomes whosoever!

    Sermon Peter’s Struggle: Overcoming The Wall of Prejudice Scripture Reading: Acts 10: 1-23 “1 In Caesarea there lived a Roman army officer named Cornelius, who was a captain of the Italian Regiment. 2 He was a devout, God-fearing man, as was everyone in his household.

     | 1,752 views

    Peter's prejudicial sentiments lingering like a foul odor in his mind collided with God's grace. Only a fresh breath of God's grace, could clear the air, and open up the door to a world of Gentiles who were waiting to follow Christ.

    Sermon - God’s Grace On a Collision Course Scripture: Acts 10:1-23 “In Caesarea there lived a Roman army officer named Cornelius, who was a captain of the Italian Regiment. 2 He was a devout, God-fearing man, as was everyone in his household.
