    Witness: Connects #7 Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Oct 24, 2019
     | 2,829 views

    A great witness demands unity of the body and acceptance of one another as Christ's heirs.

To live out this ...read more

    Too many professing Christians believe Christ needs a little help to finish His work. They are like the Judiazers Paul fought and like Cain who wanted God to accept His work rather than having the faith of Abel.

    Act 15:22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren: 23 And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and ...read more

    The background to the sermons preached at the Jerusalem council.
