    cts 1:4-8 outlines the purpose of Christ’s ascension into heaven and the coming of the Holy Spirit. Acts 1 gives the exit strategy of Jesus. Jesus told them to wait in Jerusalem until they received the baptism of the Holy Spirit. (verse 4)

    Empowered for a Purpose Acts 1:4-8 The last chapter of Luke and the first chapter of Acts Dr. Luke testifies to the final words of Jesus and His ascension into heaven.

    The Greatest Power Is Often Simple Patience Series

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Oct 15, 2008
    based on 6 ratings
     | 6,544 views

    Life outside of Christ, Paul says. It’s angry life. Its confrontational politics and caustic talk shows. It’s accusatory e-mails that appear to have been sent from a flamethrower. As God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with patience.

    Opening illustration: This past week I read about a first-grade teacher who was having a difficult day. It had rained that entire day and the children couldn’t go out for recess, so they got more and more restless and hyperactive as the day wore on. The teacher couldn’t wait for the bell to ring ...read more

    There is the gift of the Holy Ghost that is eternall life and resurrection power, and there is the infilling of the Holy Ghost to have the power to live a victorious life in Christ.

    The Gift and Infilling of the Holy Ghost By Pastor Jim May I want to begin this morning by asking two questions: First, Have you received the gift of the Holy Ghost?

    Jesus Needs A Break! (Mark 7:24-37)

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,809 views

    Jesus Needs a Break! Depictions of Christ suffering on the cross are common in Christian literature and iconography. Few though are the depictions of Jesus walking around..

    Our Gospel reading this morning is from Mark chapter 7, where we come across a Jesus who is tired - tired, I think, to the point of exhaustion. This is not the sort of depiction of Jesus that is given much attention by the church. I’ve never seen a stained-glass window with an image of Jesus ...read more

    We are all members of the body of Christ. All of us have different gifts, but together we can carry on the ministry of Jesus while He walked on earth. God knew we could not do it on our own strength, so He gave us the Holy Spirit.

    We sometimes picture the Holy Spirit as fire, chaos & activity, but the Spirit is about withdrawing & silence too.

    Ezekiel 37: 1 – 14 Acts 2:1-13 Two very famous readings today. The Old Testament lesson from Ezekiel 37 tells of the powerful wonderful vision of the Holy Spirit bringing life to that which was dead, & of course how could we not have Acts 2, Luke’s account of the Spirit falling that first ...read more
