    The Day of Pentecost was a day when God revealed a great deal about his purpose in giving believers the Holy Spirit. This passage, surprisingly, is not about the gift of tongues.

    Passage: Acts 2:1-13 Intro: Every week our church receives a number of offers to help us market the gospel. 1. to take our message and put it into an attractive format that will appeal to people. 2. glossy publications, better sound, nicer pulpit, and of course, professional graphics. 3. ...read more

    In the first two chapters of the Book of Acts we find the secret of the blessings of God on the early church. Let us examine the things that qualified that church for God’s prosperity.

    The Kind of Church Honors Text:Acts 2:46-47 Scripture Reading:Acts 2:1-4a Intro: When someone says to me, "I won’t join your church; you have hypocrites in it," I am tempted to reply, "All right, you look around until you find a perfect church.

    The New Testament church operated in power not weakness. So many congregations are failing, weak, troubled, and dying because they’re operating out of human power and not the power of the Holy Spirit.

    We worked out last week that the Acts of the Apostles is really the Continuing Acts of Jesus. Well, if Jesus has risen, has returned to his Father in heaven, how can he continue his work on earth? He needs to be present in and with his apostles doesn’t he?

    The Pentecost event tells us of our great need of the Holy Spirit. We must be convinced of two truths: (1) Lives can only be changed with His help, and (2) we can witness effectively only by His power.

    Today is Pentecost Sunday. We want to read about the birth of the church in Acts 2:1-8. We celebrate the birth of Jesus, and everyone knows it is Christmas. We remember His resurrection, and most people recognise that Easter is a special day to the Christians. But when we talk about Pentecost – ...read more
