What do we believe was the membership of the First Baptist Church by beginning Acts 1? (120) Approximately how many disciples saw the risen Lord just a few days prior to close of this chapter? (500) How many Apostles were there before the addition of the Apostle to...

Just as it was with our study of Joshua, you are going to hear messages from the Book of Acts morning, noon and night. I mean: Sunday morning, Sunday night and Wednesday night. That doesn’t mean that we’re going to preach nothing but Acts, But you may have a message...

Pretty soon, I’m going to stop referring to this as a “theological study” of the Book of Acts, but not quite yet, Because this “theological study” is not coming from a “theological book.” This is the fifth and last of the history...

This will be a difficult message for me to preach for a couple of reasons: First, because whatever rebuke there is here applies to me as much if not more than it does to you. And secondly, because this message goes against just about everything that I have ever heard...

I am calling this message: “The First Prayer Meeting” even though that is probably not quite true. It was the first church prayer meeting after the departure of the Saviour. And we are looking at the first prayer meeting in the Book of Acts. So depending...

Our message last Wednesday was also from Acts 1. In fact this series was first intended to be a Wednesday evening Bible Study, But it’s grown just a little bit. It is not out of control, but the eaglet has spread its wings. And it’s my sincere hope that you are not...
