    The work of the Holy Spirit created a huge response to the gospel on the original Pentecost. It could have gone very differently but for the fact that God was at work, creating the nascent Church.

    CATM Sermon - May 17, 2015 - Acts Chapter 2:36-47 We ended last week’s message by considering how the many people gathered responded to Peter's message of the Gospel, and to the fact that Jesus had died for them, even as they orchestrated His murder.

    Bible believers are sometimes criticized because they believe in heaven instead of facing the real world. The truth is the opposite. Heaven is more real than this present life because it is permanent and this life is temporary.
