Show me a perfect church and . . . I'll show you heaven. Dr. Luke records how the earliest Easter people sometimes didn't act like Jesus came out of the grave. But then, because they knew he did, they repented and set a new course. Sounds like us. Luke didn’t record the book of Acts to hold up the early Christian church as an impossible example to follow. His purpose was to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the growth of Jesus' church. And that sounds like us, too. We are glad you found us and invite you to contact us if we can serve you.
From Series: "Acts (2020)"
Every book of the Bible is about Jesus. Although some Bibles title the fifth book of the New Testament “The Acts of the Apostles,” it’s still about Jesus. We’re not going to study it as just scholars, but we’re going to study it also as soldiers. Scholars and soldiers tend to be the ones who study history the most. Scholars tend to look at what people used to do; soldiers tend to look for what remains to be done. One is for information, the other is for mission. We will study the Book of Acts for both.
