    The theme of Acts is not just the works of the apostles but that nothing stops God from spreading His word.

    And the Gospel goes on. Acts 8:1-24 Very anticlimactically written, from this point on there is a shift from Peter and John to a man named Saul. Saul is introduced as being present when Stephen was stoned and that he gave his approval. Dr. Luke gives us insight into Saul and then will compare it ...read more

    The Holy Spirit came and empowered the believers, who were praying in the upper room, and then things really started happening. The people who had become believers in Christ decided not to go back home, but to stay right there in Jerusalem where the acti

    The book of Acts may be listed in your Bible as the “Acts of the Apostles,” but these titles are not part of the inspired text. These titles have been added a long time after the text was given to men by the inspiration of God. The same thing is true about chapter divisions, verse numbers, and ...read more

    When We Are Called To Those Who Are Ready

    Philip’s call to travel the road to Gaza doesn’t make human sense, but it reminds us to trust God when we have to go through the wilderness of life experiences.

    There is a theme in American Literature, U.S. movies, and Broadway musicals where protagonists from rural areas come to the big city and make it big. Even Clark Kent has to move from the farm to Metropolis before he makes the big time as the investigative reporter who doubles as Superman. And we ...read more

    From the very beginning of Jesus’ evangelistic ministry, we see that faith means connecting to Jesus. And faith in Jesus means a connecting lifestyle. We connect to Jesus and then we connect others to Jesus. When you become a follower of Jesus, you cannot

    Connnecting Acts 8: 26-40 The first time a Philip is mentioned in the Bible is in John Chapter 1.

    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

    Now there is something that is played out here on earth but it is planned in heaven. We call that a divine encounter.

    Divine encounter. Acts 8: 26 -- 40. 09/05/04 For the past few Sunday mornings, we have been talking about the main business of the church. The main business of the church is to tell people how they can be forgiven of their sin and go to heaven. That is evangelism and we want to have an ...read more

    God’s purpose for the church will be accomplished. But will we be part of it? That depends.

    I love this illustration from Sermon Central: A teacher was asking children in his Sunday school class, “If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale and gave all my money to the church, would I get to heaven?” “NO”! The children answered. “If I cleaned the church everyday, mowed the yard, ...read more
