    The story in Acts 8, that tells of Philip's preaching in Samaria resulting in an Evangelism Explosion, contains 3 puzzles that many folks overlook. What are these puzzles and what can they teach us about our walk with Christ?

    OPEN: People have created puzzles for centuries. There’ve been crossword puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, Rubik's cube, and scads of others in all shapes and sizes. The better the puzzle, the more difficult it is to solve, and by that standard, one of the Holy Grails of such puzzles is this one: ...read more

    Death is inevitable for those now living. The sole exception will be should the Lord return. Christ offers life for all who receive Him. Our responsibility is to prepare for the inevitable, trusting Him.

    “The other [thief] rebuked [the first], saying, ‘Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.’ And he said, ‘Jesus, remember me when you come into your ...read more

    When one possesses passion and purpose they are mostly unstoppable.

    When Passion and Purpose Meet. Here is one of my early ones. Acts 8:3 As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison.

    This is the beginning of sermon series based on the travels of Paul, and there is no place to begin like the beginning.

    It would appear that he had everything going for him. He was one of the leaders of the early church. He was a person of influence and integrity and he had the respect and honour of his colleagues and peers. Think about it, how would you like to be described as “a person full of faith and the ...read more

    When the Apostles felt overwhelmed they created an office....DEACONS, and the church GREW!

    Acts 6:1 “And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.” We see, here, the church growing to a large number. As long as the church was small and they ...read more

    The apostles devoted themselves to the ministry of the word (Acts 6.4) which involved the Internal, External, and Eternal Mission of God's word.

    1. You are flying at 30,000 feet. Which wing of the airplane do you think is more important, the right or left? BOTH, of course! Welcome to Biblical thinking; both-and rather than either/or 2.

    We do dumb things - we make mistakes - we sin. Our text from Romans begins with one of the greatest promises in all of Scripture "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." Do you believe it? Do you truly believe it?

    For those not familiar with an Anglican service there are four Scripture readings prior to the message.

    Within the New Testament Church, there are only two offices for which we receive a list of qualifications. First, is the office of the Elder.

    Looks at how the Apostles so lived that when they were accused of being Christians and preaching Christ, there was enough evidence to convict them

    “I Wanna Be Guilty!” : Acts 8:1-6, 4:19-20. 5:27-29 David P. Nolte It’s a human tendency to defend our innocence when we are accused even if we are guilty. We may even attempt defending the actions we cannot deny. We may rationalize, minimize, justify or even lie about ...read more

    Not every believer is supposed be in a position of leadership in the Church, but every Christian should be an evangelist. Philip was an evangelist. His business was telling others of Jesus,

    You can go to church and still be deaf! Your ears sure need a touch of God, so that the Gospel permeates into the mind and heart.

    Uncircumcised ears! Acts 7:51 "You stiff-necked people, uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit. As your fathers did, so do you.” The people were not ready to hear the voice of Stephen, they tightly shut their ears! Uncircumcised ears! If both the ears are plugged ...read more
