July 17 — Acts 12:1-17

Posted on July 16, 2007November 8, 2023 by Norm

SCRIPTURE: Acts 12:1-17 OBSERVATION: The Lord is able to dramatically intervene in the crises of His followers (Peter), but He will not do it all the time (James). He often waits to the last minute to step in (night before trial). These believers show us how hard it really is to trust the Lord for what…

Posted on July 15, 2007November 8, 2023 by Norm

SCRIPTURE: Acts 11:19-30 OBSERVATION: The message of Jesus is spilling over beyond the Jews to all the nations. The persecution fulfills Jesus commission to be His “witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8). The Lord confirms His purpose to bless all nations by granting huge success…

Sermon Discussion: How to do the Impossible!

Posted on July 15, 2007November 9, 2023 by Norm

How To Do The Impossible Next Sunday (July 22) our message will be based on John 15:5 (read John 15:1-17). As our SERVANTS share how God worked in and through them, I will reflect on how God takes the ordinary efforts of His servants, and multiplies their results. Please read through this passage, and answer this question:…

July 15 — Acts 11:1-18

Posted on July 14, 2007November 8, 2023 by Norm

SCRIPTURE: Acts 11:1-18 OBSERVATION: Here we have the first of many internal battles in the church about religious protocol. In this story the believers listen to Peter and celebrate the manifestation of God’s grace, but throughout history there have been huge conflicts and divisions that resulted in very un-Christ-like actions and attitudes. How do we explain…

July 14 — Acts 10:24-48

Posted on July 13, 2007November 8, 2023 by Norm

SCRIPTURE: Acts 10:24-48 OBSERVATION: This passage reveals the fulfillment of God’s plan from the beginning, to bless all nations (Genesis 12:1-3). God does not have favourites. He chose Israel as a means to an end, to bless all nations. The laws re. clean and unclean were not intended to separate people from each other, but to separate…

July 13 — Acts 10:1-23a

Posted on July 12, 2007November 8, 2023 by Norm

SCRIPTURE: Acts 10:1-23a OBSERVATION: Here we see the Lord at work on both sides of evangelism, preparing both the witness and the one being witnessed to. Cornelius is good soil (Matthew 13:1-9, 18-23), open and receptive to God. Peter’s heart still needs to be opened more, to be released from the constraints of the old covenant code. The…

July 12 — Acts 9:32-43

Posted on July 12, 2007November 8, 2023 by Norm

SCRIPTURE: Acts 9:32-43 OBSERVATION: The healing, resurrecting power of Jesus is still at work. These stories are similar to one’s in Jesus’ life. The result of these miracles is that many people put their faith in Jesus as Messiah. Peter makes it look so easy, so normal. Is it, should it be? Some Christ-followers see this…

July 11 — Acts 9:19b-31

Posted on July 11, 2007November 8, 2023 by Norm

SCRIPTURE: Acts 9:19b-31 OBSERVATION: Saul’s transformation from fierce enemy of Christ to fearless witness for Christ was shocking to both Jews and Christians. No doubt Barnabas’ support was encouraging for him. His bold and powerful message challenged and convinced many, an evidence of the Spirit of Christ at work. When the Spirit takes hold of someone…

I am surrounded by priests (christians) who repeat incessantly that their kingdom is not of this world and yet they lay their hands on everything they can get.
