Guidance for the End Times: A Study of the Book of Acts (Part 25)

Ministering and Fasting  In Acts 13, Luke picks back up at the comings and goings of Saul. The first verse lists five specific men that were in Antioch doing God’s work. Those men were Barnabas, Simeon, Lucius, Manaen, and Saul. This verse labels these men as prophets and teachers. Apparently, Saul and Barnabas were not yet apostles, which means a delegate or one sent forth.   These men ministered to the Lord (verse … Continue reading Guidance for the End Times: A Study of the Book of Acts (Part 25)

Guidance for the End Times: A Study of the Book Acts (Part 24)

Targeting the Leadership  Acts 12 begins with an account about the death of the apostle James and the imprisonment of the apostle Peter. According to Luke, Herod set out to vex certain members of the church (Acts 12:1). The implication of this verse is that Herod’s decision was very targeted rather than random. The decision to kill James was no coincidence (verse 2). Verse 3 shows that Herod targeted Peter … Continue reading Guidance for the End Times: A Study of the Book Acts (Part 24)

Rejoice for the Conversion of Others   In Acts 11:1-3, we see that those in Judea had heard about the gentiles receiving the word of God. It is very unfortunate that their first response was to criticize the Peter’s actions rather than praise God. Only after Peter recounted the event did the brethren praise God for His work (see verses 4-18).   Christians must be very careful not to be overly … Continue reading Guidance for the End Times: A Study of the Book of Acts (Part 23)

We also read of two great miracles done through Peter to Aeneas and Dorcas. It is important to note that these miracles were done through faith and the power of the Holy Spirit.

Remember, there are no details in the Holy Bible that are insignificant. We need to be humble enough to study all of what is available to us.   Baptism Does Not Guarantee the Receipt of the Holy Spirit   Many who claim to be Spirit-filled believers … Continue reading Guidance for the End Times (Part 17)
