    What all of these men and women of faith had in common was their ability to trust in the promises of God. They did not let the thinking of man come between their ability to think forward to the promises of a better land.

    In my lifetime I will go through troubles beyond my control. All things do work together for good as Jesus is conforming me to His image. I will conqueror life’s problems through Jesus Christ.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: It is said that about 200 years ago the tomb of the great conqueror Charlemagne was opened. The sight the workmen saw was startling.

    A steward is one who takes care of another person’s affairs but owns nothing himself. In today’s world he might be called a manager.

    This sermon follows the progression of Acts 11:19-26 and identifies 10 things we should be aware of today. I used train illustrations with the 10 words.

    There are 10 stops along the tracks. (I used train related illustrations for each of these words) 1. Dispersion – v. 19a – Sometimes life takes us in many different directions just as it did in the early Church. 2. Exclusion – v. 19b – Often we like the early Church miss the point that the gospel ...read more

    There can be no life or the revival of life apart from the Holy SPIRIT.
