     | 7,954 views

    This message looks at the problem in Acts 11:1-18 of those in the early church focusing on the wrong aspects of what took place there.

You might think that it has something to do with today’s “drive thru” culture but you would be wrong. In fact, today we will see that it goes all the way back to the early Church. That is why I ...read more

    Jesus ministry to serve and ransom mankind was not spontaneous, but well-orchestrated –as we see in today’s text. We can see at least three persons or categories involved in the early stage of his ministry.

    There are six things I want to point out about these 3 verses. The events of the Lord’s return and of the resurrection are clearly spelled out in these verses.

    Last Wednesday in 1 Thess. 4: 13-15, Paul told us he didn’t want us to be ignorant about those who have fallen asleep.

    The preacher should be constantly preaching and teaching for change for a believer’s life is a life of constant change and alignment with the doctrine of God!

    We will see how Jesus prayed for future believers. These are those who would believe in Him from that moment to the end of the world. What He prayed is a precious thing for believers, but it is also an indictment against believers of every generation.
