  • How Hardships Work For Good

    Contributed by Greg Nance on May 25, 2013
     | 4,164 views

    Acts 5 gives us two cases where the church faced hardship. One was internal and the other was external. Both were used by God for the good of the church. How can that happen for us today?

    (Read Acts 5 with slides) What does it take to ruin a church? What does it take to stop God? Acts 5 gives us two stories about threats to the church, one from the inside and the other from the outside. First. The threat from the inside produced two deaths and great fear upon the whole ...read more

    Seek the truth and stand strong. Know your identity and be strong. Exercise authority and stay strong.

    The outpouring of the Holy Spirit gave the disciples exceptional courage to bear witness to Christ. • They showed unwavering faith in Jesus, despite the danger and opposition. • They were strong because of the presence and power of the Holy Spirit.

  • They Believed In Spirit-Filled Preaching.

    Contributed by Ralph Jenkins on May 28, 2013

     | 6,160 views

    I think it’s interesting that not until Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit that he began to preach. No preacher, should ever seek to preach without having been filled with the Holy Spirit.

    “They Believed in Spirit-Filled Preaching” Acts 2:14-41 In the last message from Acts we saw that the Apostles and first church believed in the Holy Spirit. They had waited for what the Father had promised, the indwelling and infilling of the Holy Spirit. There was no way they could ...read more

  • They Were A Spirit-Filled Church Series

     | 8,945 views

    We have before us today a picture of the model church. You’ve heard me say; “if our church could be any kind of church our church wanted to be what kind of church would our church be?” The answer is found here in Acts 2:42-47.

    They Were a Spirit Filled Church Acts 2:42-47 We began our study in Acts 1-2 with the idea that God was able to do so much in and through the first church because of their belief. They believed in all that Jesus ever began to and teach, they believed in the resurrection, they believed in the ...read more

    God’s people have found courage through prayer throughout history. There is no time like the present to reach up and be recharged with God’s blessings through prayer.

    Courage in Prayer How do you handle being hated for your Christian faith? What do you do? In a minute we will look at Acts 4. We’ll see what God tells us about courageous praying here. (Acts 4 records how opposition arose during the early days of the church and how the early disciples handled ...read more

    Sermon for "Old Fashioned Sunday"

    The Church of Acts (Acts 4:32-35) - Considering Old Time Religion I wondered about some of the old church habits - I wondered about how God would call us today to act knowing what He has already done - Tonight, let’s examine the old church; let’s get honest about what we need to do - Let’s ...read more

    A look at the story of the healing of the lame man at the Gate Beautiful. How many "lame" people do we encounter, only to leave them in their condition.

    The World is Lame: What Are You Doing About It? Acts 3:1-12  There are so many people outside of the church in a state of hurt and need, but so many within the church leave them in that state.  Peter and John were on their way to pray and encountered a man who was lame. They took ...read more

     | 4,742 views

    I want them to know that it is God’s plan for disciples to be actively involved in a small group so he can transform their lives.

    Today is the last message in a series “Three Secrets for a Better New Year.” Our hope has been to share some insights from the Scriptures that if affirmed and practiced would make someone’s 09 superior to their 08. And today’s message is no different, other than to say that this secret, has the ...read more

  • The Feet Of Them Which Have Buried Thy Husband

    The cost of deception and pretense is a price that most never want to pay

    THE FEET OF THEM WHICH HAVE BURIED THY HUSBAND ACTS 5:1-11 Text: Acts 5:9 Acts 5:9 9 Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out. ...read more

  • Building Strong Foundations Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Feb 9, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 19,167 views

    The Holy Spirit does not work through a vacuum but through believers, the body of Christ. The first church set us a good example: Build on the foundation of God’s Word, build a strong fellowship, and make prayer a priority.

    The Spirit works through the Body of Christ This passage paints for us a very happy picture. • Earlier on, Apostle Peter preached and "about 3000 were added to the church." • It is the start of something new. Something the apostles have not done before. • But it looks like a smooth start. ...read more

  • Never Forget What's Important Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,993 views

    Peter’s sermon from Acts 3 gives us the essentials of what evangelism needs to be about.

    At the dramatic conclusion of the musical, Camelot, the tragic figure of King Arthur calls a boy named Tom out of the bushes. Arthur dubs the boy a “Knight of the Round Table,” but orders him not to fight in the battle. He is to “grow up and grow strong” in order to tell of the ideals and ...read more

  • The Name We Claim Series

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Feb 10, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,573 views

    Early believers were able to face opposition and tribulation because they focused upon their identity, following Jesus. What is our identity?

    Sometimes, we get suckered in by the idea that identity and relationship are not important. We buy into Shakespeare’s rhetorical question and answer from Act II, Scene II of Romeo and Juliet: What is in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. We ...read more

  • The Gold Standard Series

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,969 views

    God doesn’t merely want to meet our expectations, God wants to raise our standards.

    The Gold Standard I want to apologize if what I’m about to share is repetitious. I think my opening illustration was shared with me by our friend and Chairman of Deacons, Robert Johnson, a few months ago, but I’m not positive. Anyway, in 1900, a company called the Detroit Automobile Company ...read more

    Going to Church isn’t the same for everyone. Some go to be seen others to watch. But truly Going to Church is to see the Lord.

    Going to Church Acts 4:31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness. 4:32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: ...read more
