    Pentecost; The Day God Went Global

    Contributed by Andrew Warriner on May 22, 2013
     | 4,803 views

    We have to have the Spirit living within us if we want him to fill us.

    We are living today in a global society, advances in communications over the last few years through fibre optical and satellite technology, the internet and so on means we can now talk to people thousands of miles away face to face in the comfort of our own homes or offices. We can leave our homes ...read more

    They Believed In Spirit-Filled Preaching.

    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

    This is the story of Pentecost along with stories of revival from more recent church eras.

    Last Sunday as we were preparing for worship, just before the service, our guest worship leaders were playing a prelude. The music finished, and as Pastor Garret came forward to begin the welcome and announcements I heard a sweet little voice right behind me loudly proclaim, “again! ...read more

    At Pentecost, God engaged in a pyrotechnic display that shook the audience, and set up a wild sermon by Peter that offered a wild and unheard of invitation. What made this sermon so powerful, and why does it's message still shake the world?

    There are many answers given in the religious world to the question, "What must I do to be saved?". Which answer is correct? Let's examine the first conversion account in Acts to find out what the Holy Spirit's answer is to this important question.

    What a great day for the kingdom of God it must have been when that first sermon was preached by Peter! The door into the kingdom of heaven was opened to the world. That first sermon led to the salvation of about 3000 souls. Let’s put ourselves into the shoes of the people hearing this first ...read more

    Most preachers preach to bring comforts, consolation, at the same time it is also, the responsibility of a Preacher to declare the condemnation. Confrontational preaching leads the hearers to yield their lives to Christ.

    Acts 2:36-41 Result of the Spirit-Filled Preaching 2: 36-37 Conviction of the Sinners 2: 38-40 Confrontational preaching 2: 41 Conversion of the Sinners Acts 2:36-37 Conviction of the Sinners In the previous passage, we have seen how Peter took the ...read more

    Those Who Believed Were Baptized

    In the New Testament accounts, those who believed were baptized. No one was baptized and then believed, but those who believed were baptized because they were saved.

    “When [those listening] heard [Peter’s command] they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, ‘Brothers, what shall we do?’ And Peter said to them, ‘Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will ...read more

    When the Holy Spirit comes into our lives is there a radical change? Should there be a radical change? Is there a difference when the Holy Spirit infills and directs a church and when He does not? Let's see what the Bible says!

    Through her tears she saw angels asking her “why are you crying?” What kind of idiot question is that? “The so-and-so’s who murdered Him now have stolen His body and I don’t know where He is.”

    Tuesday of Easter Week 2020 “They Have Taken Him” There are very few Gospel scenes more touching than the one we just heard.
