a sermon on Pentecost and the household of Cornelius

Acts 10:42-48 Pentecost 1927 (page 57 - Volume 1) For centuries the children of Israel held a select place in the favor of God, so they began to think that God’s covenant was bound to them alone and to those of their blood. They boasted: We are Abraham’s seed. They considered themselves a godly ...read more

What we have here is a perfect balance. Sometimes a church will put all emphasis in one direction and doesn’t balance out.

Edified and multiplied. Acts 9:31. 08/22/04 When you study the book of Acts, what you see is the progress of the church. You find the birth and the development of the New Testament church. As we read along in this wonderful book we find what the church is to be about. We get snapshots and ...read more

The Ethiopian Eunuch didn’t understand the Bible until someone explained it to him. The whole Bible points to Jesus’ life death and resurrection.

In a few minutes we’ll say the creed, as we do most weeks, and we’ll repeat these words almost without thinking: "For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again - in accordance with the Scriptures." I wonder whether we ever stop ...read more

The Light Of Life Series

the light of the gospel impacted on Saul in a way that would lead in the end to the gospel being proclaimed all the way to Rome, to the centre of the Roman Empire, in fact in the Emperor’s palace itself.

It’s interesting to notice, as we read through these chapters of Acts, from 7 to 10, how there’s a theme of blindness and sight, so reminiscent of the words of Jesus at the end of John 9. [In fact let’s listen to them now.] First Stephen retells the story of the Jewish people and the members of ...read more

Peter discovers that God has more in mind than just the people of Israel as he’s taken outside his comfort zone to share the gospel with Cornelius

It’s a weird story isn’t it? Peter’s up on the roof of Simon the Tanner’s house in the middle of the day praying and he starts to feel hungry. So he asks the cook to prepare some lunch and while he’s waiting he falls into a trance. Perhaps the heat of the day has got to him. Perhaps he starts to ...read more

Fueled by Philip Yancey’s What’s So Amazing About Grace?, Jesus’resurrection showed that God opened the door for oddballs and misfits.

Acts 10:9-16 – From Lamb to Ham I’ve been wanting to preach this message for some time. And right after Easter is a good time to do it. Today I’m talking about one of the changes that Jesus made by His life and death. I’m talking about food. Now, our religion has very little to do with ...read more

We don’t know what we don’t know, but the Spirit of God knoweth all. We must learn to trust the spirit and be will to allow the "exceedingness" of God lead us beyond our current understanding.

I want to read the majority of the story so please bare with me as we do then we will come back look at some important issues concerning it. Read: Acts ...read more

based on 31 ratings

No one can predict what great things God will accomplish through even your smallest steps of obedience, courage and grace.

There was, in Damascus, a certain disciple named Ananias. I think he was a young man. Because in Joel 2:28 God said through the prophet that after He poured out His Spirit on all mankind, their old men would dream dreams and their young men would see visions. And here, in Acts 9:10, we’re ...read more

When we experience the manifest presence of God we are changed deep in our life forever. All though Saul knew about God, he came to fully experience and KNOW God on the road to Damascus.

“There’s Got To Be More!” Acts 9:1-6 Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the Lord’s disciples. He went to the high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any there who belonged to the Way, whether men or women, he might ...read more

A study on the deviation of immersion and sprinkling. Good for a seeker crowd. Also helps an immersed crowd to answer questions raised in public.

Immersion 101 We basically all have been raised in the Christian Church/ Churches of Christ. And being that we all have been brought up this way, we all like to think we know how to answer the questions that arise from the outside non-Christian community. Well, neither do I.
