    A Hand Up...not A Hand Out! (Acts 3:1-10)

    Contributed by David Darst on May 17, 2021
     | 6,057 views

    I have come to this conclusion: People do not need a “hand out” . What they really need is a “hand up” So many people would be content to be carried around in their affliction rather than walk on their own two feet. The Worst part is many Christian’s are content to keep carrying them.

    I. The Routine (1) Peter and John were still in the two by two mode -- they were going about their religious routine on their way to the temple to pray. “Ninth hour” approximately (3PM) in the afternoon. Some interesting observations: It wasn’t the time of the afternoon sacrifice; but rather the ...read more

     | 4,802 views

    In chapter 4, Peter urges Christians to be fiercely committed to fulfilling the purpose of our lives in Christ. Prior chapters made the case that we are a “holy people.” We have been rescued from meaningless lives and set apart from the world to be used for God’s purpose.

    And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? —1 Peter 4:18 Text: 1 Peter 4:1-19 (KJV) Living for God’s Glory 1Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh ...read more

    The story revolves around Judith; a daring and beautiful widow upset with her Jewish compatriots for not trusting God to deliver them from their Seleucid monarchs.

    The Book of Judith is a deuterocanonical[a] book, included in the Septuagint and the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Christian Old Testament of the Bible but excluded from the Hebrew canon and assigned by Protestants to the Apocrypha. It tells of a Jewish widow, Judith, who uses her beauty and ...read more

     | 2,194 views

    There are two possible explanations for why Moses solicits his father-in-law's permission. One is that he may have needed his father-in-law's permission to take Zipporah from her House. The second is that Moses exhibited good manners in making this request.

    Exodus 4:18-20, Moses Departs From Jethro Scripture: Exodus 4:18-20 18 Then Moses went back to Jethro his father-in-law and said to him, 'Let me return to my own people in Egypt to see if any of them are still alive.' Jethro said, 'Go, and I wish you well.' 19 Now the LORD had ...read more

    All We Like Sheep Series

     | 4,411 views

    We, as Christians, can go astray like sheep. Sin keeps zapping us like an electric fence, but we eventually become numb to it and cross over to enter the dangers of the world. The Shepherd will then react. So, how will He react?

    To begin this evening’s message, I would like to share a verse from the Old Testament. Isaiah 53:6 says, “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.” All of us have gone astray from God at some point in our ...read more
