We Have A Job To Do Series

Contributed by Greg Nance on Jul 29, 2004

Jesus left this world to prepare a place for us. He left us with marching orders that keep us busy till he returns. Luke’s inspired message of Acts reminds us of our task and our strength in Christ.

Let’s Go To Bethlehem!

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Dec 25, 2023

Although Luke’s account of the shepherds going to see baby Jesus is filled with familiar details, the thread that ties the whole thing together is what the shepherds were told about the child. We hear that connection three times in these verses.

“Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” Those words spoken by the shepherds on the first Christmas Eve are familiar to us. An angel of the Lord had brought them “good news that will cause great joy for all the people.” And the angel told ...read more

Almost Saved

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Jul 21, 2013

This, to me, is one of the saddest incidents in the entire Bible. Looking upon this narrative we can see that this is an example of God reaching out to the sin stained heart of a man to give that man a chance to be saved.

TITLE: ALMOST SAVED SCRIPTURE: ACTS 26:19-29 Can I talk to you this morning about the subject – Almost Saved? ALMOST - is a sad word in anybody’s dictionary. It keeps company with expressions like “If Only” and (in the South) “Near ‘Bout’ Almost is a ...read more
