     | 3,428 views

    Sometimes we get a wake-up call, like Peter did. Our culture is assailing Christianity. Will we wake up and take action--prayer, fasting and giving?

    How Hardships Work For Good

    Contributed by Greg Nance on May 25, 2013
     | 4,176 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

    Religious opposition to the Gospel!

    PERSECUTION: THE OPENING SALVOES. Acts 4:1-31; Acts 5:12-42. Soon after the early success of Pentecost, the fledgling New Testament church found herself facing persecution.

     | 3,006 views

    I think what happens is that when someone hears the Gospel–that God so loved us, weak and sinful though we are, that He gave His only Son up to death, that this Son rose and wants to give us the same gift–there are only two possible responses.
