    "Peter, Feed My Sheep” (12 Of 21)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022
     | 1,637 views

    We often hear Christians say that they believe the Lord Jesus is coming soon to gather His church.

    When some Christians say that, it makes you wonder why they say that. I say this because their life-styles do not reflect that they believe He is going to come very soon.

He was writing to Titus with purpose, seeking to equip him for ministry, while serving to establish local churches. The task at hand was ordaining elders within every city in Crete, so they ...read more

    Mordecai, Esther, and the Jewish population in Persia may have been excited that a Jew had been selected as the new queen, but their excitement would not last. Trouble is brewing within the kingdom - a situation that will affect every Jew in the Persian Empire.

    Trouble is Brewing Esther 3: 1-7 It is likely that Mordecai and the Jews within Persia were feeling confident about their current situation.

    we can be confident in sharing the gospel with our friends and neighbours because we know that God has already called out people to hear and respond when they hear the good news of salvation.

    I want to finish this part of our series on Acts by reflecting on the way God continued to encourage and support Paul in his preaching of the gospel, despite the great opposition he faced.
