    Why did God send Philip witness to the Eunuch? This was an important official in Ethiopia. Why not send Peter, or John or one the other apostles?

    OPEN: On our vacation last month we went to Philadelphia. We took the guided tour of the city in a double-decker bus and saw various statues and parks, Betsy Ross’s home, as well as Benjamin Franklin’s grave. Our guide told us that people throw approximately $3000 in pennies on Franklin’s grave ...read more

    The Church Moving Forward With Its Mission

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Oct 10, 2005
    based on 40 ratings
     | 17,635 views

    When a church is on mission for Christ there are three things the devil wants to do to its members and its body. Embarass, Imprison, and Embalm you. But God will do three things if we are on Mission for Him. Encourage, Empower, and Enrich our lives.

    Intro: When a church has seen no one “won” or witnessed to the Lord Jesus Christ it will be left alone by the devil. However, if the church is not fulfilling its mission of sharing its faith with the lost the Lord Jesus Christ will correct it. Whether it is financial difficulty, terrible ...read more

    Envy has a powerful effect upon our lives. It rubs of of peace, joy and love. God not only offers us forgiveness, but also a life of contentment.

    Acts 8:9-25 “Where the Grass Is Greener (Envy)” INTRODUCTION We are complex individuals. To be able to say that we were completely dedicated to and solely motivated by God’s will may be our dream and desire, but it is not the reality. All too often the less noble forces of greed, pride, ...read more

    "Philip: Preacher On The Run"

    Our opportunity for service may be in sight in a moment, and bypass us in another if we’re not ready to run to obedience. Philip ran to do God’s bidding.

    Following the Acts record it would appear that the newborn church had been pretty cozy and comfortable, up until the martyrdom of Stephen. It had begun with a very public demonstration of God’s power in the coming of the Holy Spirit, Peter and the others had boldly proclaimed their risen Lord ...read more

    The Spirit, A Preacher And A Man

     | 2,465 views

    The Holy Spirit knows if some one is seeking the Lord. The Holy Spirit knows if some one does not understand the Scriptures. The Holy Spirit sent Phillip to the eunuch and the Holy Spirit will send others!!!

    The Spirit, a preacher and a man! Acts 8:26-40 Acts 8:26 …an angle of the Lord… 1. angle of the Lord… The word angle literally means messenger. In this scripture you could easily read, “Now a messenger of the Lord” and be correct in you reading. The messenger here meant was the Spirit of the ...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

    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
