    Acts Of The Apostles 38 Of 39

    These days it has become very popular for people to take a cruise.

    What makes these cruises so special, is that for those days on the cruise people get to live the pampered life. When they get back from the cruise, it takes them several days for reality to set back in, and they start to live in the real world again. In our text, we see the apostle Paul is on a ...read more

    The apostle Paul, wherever he went, preached the same gospel.

    Illus: He was not like some of these politicians, they go to one part of the country and give one speech, then they go to another part of the country and say just the opposite. This “old time” religion that the Bible speaks about is good for everyone. It is good for the youth, the baby boomers, ...read more

    Acts Of The Apostles 35 Of 39

    In Acts twenty-four we find the apostle Paul is being held in custody as a common criminal, waiting for his accusers to arrive, and is to appear before Antonius Felix, the governor of Judaea.

    Felix was a politician in every sense of the word. He had risen from being a subservient person, to the position of Governor of Judaea. He got his start through the influence of his brother at the imperial court of Claudius. He married three Princesses, which also elevated his career. The first ...read more

    Paul was warned several times against going to Jerusalem, but he felt he must.

    Yes, Paul had been warned and the words of the warning came true. He was bound and made prisoner. In chapter 23, we read of his defense in the presence of the council. We read of: I. THE ABUSE A. HIS CONDUCT Verse 1, "And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and ...read more

    The Bible records many oral reports that were given.

    For example, if you remember in the Old Testament, Moses sent out the ten spies to scout out the land and they came back and gave their report. Some of them gave a very negative report. They said that they should not attempt to invade the land because there were giants in the land, and they would ...read more

    Paul had been having great success, especially in Ephesus.

    He was now making every effort to go back to Jerusalem. He had been seeing Gentiles saved by the scores, and no doubt he began to think of his own Jewish people, who were lost without Christ, and wanted to go back and share the gospel with them. Illus: One of the frustrations that we Christians ...read more

    In chapter 19 we read where Paul's ministry reached its climax in Ephesus.

    God worked in a marvelous way! New converts actually forsook their former practice of black magic, and in a public burning, they destroyed over $10,000.00 worth of occult scrolls and magic charms, thus openly proclaiming their faith in the Lord Jesus. Illus: Wilmington states, "It is often ...read more

    In this portion of Scripture, we have the opportunity to travel with Paul while he is at Ephesus.

    Some of the places that Paul visited would not have impressed us, but we can see from these verses that God used Paul in a great way. This is the place Paul wanted to visit on his second missionary journey, and God forbid him to come, but now, God not only allowed him to come, but God gave Paul an ...read more

     | 1,388 views

    In this chapter we see something that is of major importance.

    Paul had spent eighteen months at Corinth, reasoning with the Jews and planting the seed of Christ's being the Son of God, but had had very little success. He left, and Apollos came behind him, and had tremendous success. This passage reveals that Apollos was successful for two ...read more

    When Paul and Silas left Thessalonica, they left it in a turmoil.

    The Jews that did not believe, showed their jealousy by attacking the household of Jason, who had lodged Paul and Silas, since they could not take their revenge out on them personally. Verse 10, says, "And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming ...read more

    In chapter 15, we studied the sad separation of Paul and Barnabas.

    Before this, in Acts 13:2, we read, "As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, "Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them." God, the Holy Spirit, had called them unto this work, and they were being greatly blessed of the ...read more

    In chapter fifteen we have reached the fourth major turning point in the book of Acts.

    (1) The first major turning point was when the Church was filled with the Holy Ghost in Acts, chapter 2. (2) The second major turning point was when the Christian Church was able to convert the apostle Paul from Judaism in Acts 9. (3) The third major turning point, was when the Christian ...read more

     | 1,536 views

    Today we enjoy the freedom we have in America, and think very little about the men and women who bought and paid for it!

    Illus: It is easy for me to understand why some of the old soldiers who faced death itself, some even lost legs, eyes, arms, etc., become angry when they see people who have done nothing to win, or keep, their freedom, wanting to burn the symbol of that freedom, the flag. Well, that is not the ...read more

     | 1,630 views

    Paul wrote to young Timothy and said, “…that thou...war a good warfare.”

    Illus: It is obvious, from much of Paul’s writings, that he thought of the Christian life as a warfare. He spoke of Christians as soldiers, in training, discipline, and even in having weapons. In the Book of Acts, we can see so clearly that Christians are soldiers. In one chapter we read ...read more

    Have you ever wondered why God promised to reward us for the good deeds we do in this life?

    The first thought that occurs is that He loves us, and wants to reward our good deeds as a father would reward his child for a good report card. Romans 8:17b says, “...and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together." This is one ...read more
