    Acts Of The Apostles (12 Of 39)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022
     | 1,022 views

    Remember that we read in the sixth and seventh chapters of Acts, about the life and death of that great deacon, Stephen.

    The church lamented his death, and probably wondered who could take his place. They did not need to wonder, because when the Lord takes a saint home, He always raises up someone to take up where that saint left off. When we got to chapter 8, by the time we got to the fifth verse, we found that ...read more

    Today we look at another Deacon who never identifies himself as a Deacon; We must consider this Evangelist who never identifies himself as a Preacher; the bible says of him only that he was filled with the Holy Ghost and today that he is just passing through!

    Acts 8:35-40 (NKJV) “Passing Through” June 5, 2022 This is not our home, we are just passing through! In John 15, Jesus said that “we are not of the world,” because He chose us out of the world! Peter said we are “strangers and pilgrims!” in this world (1 Peter 2:11). Paul said in ...read more

    A Mother’s Day sermon explaining how the command to honor is just that - a command. There are no parameters given on qualifications. (From a sermon by Melvin Newland)

    Today is Mother’s Day. It is the one day each year that we men put aside to honor our mothers and the mothers of our children. And they happen to be the one person we will generally buy a gift for, and we will still anguish over what to buy. If you have not yet purchased a gift for your mother ...read more

    In order for life to work the way God intended it to in the area of friendships, we must choose friends wisely according to God’s qualifications.

    Qualities of a True Friend There is a heavy emphasis in our society on friendships. Television, movies, radio & our peers tell us that we need to be loyal friends and that nothing should come between our friendships with others.

    In the election of Greek-speaking deacons and Stephen's ministry, we see how God prepares His men and plans His move.

    Let’s read Acts 6:8-15.

    Lent 3: Moses walked on holy ground and was commissioned to accomplish God’s purposes. We consider holiness, qualifications and efficacy of ministry in this message.

    There’s a cute little story of Moses appearing in the Rose Garden of the White House. When the White House staff recognized this important visitor, they quickly rushed in and told the President. He too was impressed and so he rushed out to welcome Moses. But to everyone’s shock, the very moment ...read more

    Beloved, the ox is a metaphor for a pastor's need for freedom to lead and expand the Church's impact. Working together in unity and harmony as one body, we can make a substantial difference in our community by spreading love, hope, and kindness to those in need.
