The Book of Acts: The Gospel Driven Truth

Acts 17:1-15 "Be Open Minded!"
Nov 17, 2024

Points:

  • Everything from the big story of the Old Testament to its tiniest details are fulfilled in the birth, life, work, and person of Jesus of Nazareth.

  • Jesus is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords of every tribe and nation. Charles III is just a king.

  • Envy is both a common, deadly vice that robs you of joy and makes you experience the truth as offensive and painful.

  • The object of opening the mind, as of opening the mouth, is to shut it again on something solid. (G. K. Chesterton)

  • Filled with envy, you want to knock others down, down, down. Jesus Christ humbled Himself to death upon a cross - love to the loveless shown that you might loved and lovely be.

  • To know Christ Jesus and to grow in Christ-likeness you need to put all your envy to death and choose to grow in open mindedness.
