Walking In Truth

Contributed by Greg Nance on May 22, 2010

3 John verse 11 echoes the words of John throughout his writings. We are called by Jesus Christ to leave sin and follow the truth.

This morning our text is 3 John. Adam Clarke notes that we seldom hear 3 John quoted but in reproof of lordly tyrants, or prating troublesome fellows in the Church. He says that it has been the lot of both the minor prophets and the minor epistles to be generally neglected, because with many ...read more

Nt Survey - Acts, Acts Of The Holy Spirit Series

Contributed by Paul Zeron on Oct 16, 2013

The book of Acts reports more of the work of the Spirit than the works of the apostles. It ends abruptly...God's churches continue "writing" more chapters to this day.

Acts of the Spirit As we continue to examine the New Testament books to have a basic idea what each one is about we come to the book of Acts. Most of the New Testament books were written to address specific problems and so we approach them expecting a logical flow of an argument that works ...read more

Acts Of The Apostles (4 Of 39)
