    Honoring the Protestant Reformation by moving Forward in our Faith

    INTRO Of all the subjects Martin Luther was most passionate, he wrote of nothing more extensive than that of “faith. In December 1536, Luther marched forward in faith by defending that which he held so dear by encouraging the church to reform their ways and return to the Lord with all their ...read more

    Wouldn’t you love to see in our neighborhood what happened in our text to the city of Antioch? What can we do in order to see more of God’s blessing in our country? We know that just saying “God Bless America” is not going to do it.

    Part I Acts 11:19-26 Purpose: To stir up God’s people to be more aggressive in spreading the gospel. INTRODUCTION: Wouldn’t you love to see in our neighborhood what happened in our text to city of Antioch?

    The believers were not called Christians in Jerusalem, but were called Christians in Antioch.

    Text: “The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch” (Acts 11:26). Who is a Christian? How would you define a Christian? I would say that a Christian is a person who believes in and follows the teachings of Jesus Christ. A Christian is one who proclaims, follows, and lives ...read more

    Those Gentiles!

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Jul 27, 2013
     | 3,926 views

    We Gentiles have been granted repentance by God. This gift is of greater worth than anything this world has to offer. The early church was not excited to open the door of faith to us. What then shall be our response to God's gift of grace?

    What to do with those Gentiles!? Acts 11 records when the doors of the church swung wide open to every nation and Peter was called on the carpet for taking the first steps. We look at this today and wonder how they could have missed it. Did not Jesus himself commission them to go into all the ...read more

    If you were to ask people in a crowded restaurant how many are Christians most would probably raise their hand. But when you ask what does that mean; well, you would get many different answers. So, how can we tell the true from the false?

    Title: “Christians…” Text: Acts 11:19–26 Introduction: I’ve been thinking—always a dangerous thing for a Baptist preacher, I know—but what does it really mean to be a Christian? Is it walking an aisle? Shaking a preacher’s hand? Maybe it’s when you get baptized? (Though I’ve seen some folks go ...read more

    RESPONDING TO THE POOR. Acts 11:27-30. When Paul made his second post-conversion visit to Jerusalem, it was in response to a revelation (Galatians 2:1-2).

    Peter might be riding high on the cloud of joy and excitement as he is reporting to the Church of Jerusalem the advancement of God’s Kingdom to the Gentile. But instead of appreciation and recognition, what he received is objection and criticism. Let's se
