    Peter and John were just two broke preachers but they were God’s preachers and that's what made the difference.

    Introduction: When Jesus called on His disciples, He did not sit them down one by one to negotiate their salary. He did not ask them for a resume, He did not ask them for a reference because no one knew them better than He did. There’s no explanation in the Bible as why He chose His twelve ...read more

    Acts 2 - Empowered Series

    God is going to reach a lost world through the empowering of the Holy Spirit and His church. We depend on One and devote to building His church through the teaching of His Word, fellowship, communion and prayer.

    Reaching the lost world for Christ would necessarily mean the birth of the Church, the body of Christ, the gathering of believers in Christ. • This is a divine institution, not a man-made organisation. Through the Body of Christ the world will come to see Christ. • The Church is the ...read more

    How Hardships Work For Good

    Contributed by Greg Nance on May 25, 2013
     | 4,161 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

    They Were A Spirit-Filled Church Series

    Contributed by Ralph Jenkins on May 28, 2013
     | 8,933 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

    We do not need to look for a fight or desire to fight and many Christians do. At the same time, we do not need to be cowardly about our faith.
