  • Acts 8 (2018)

    Message on Acts 8

    Summary of Acts 7

    • The Holy Spirit speaks through Stephen, recounting Israel’s history and God’s hand upon them and accuses them of being “stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears” and always resisting the Holy Spirit, at which point, Stephen is stoned to death as Saul watches and consents, approves of this murder.

    God allowed persecution achieves God ordained purpose (v1-8)

    • Challenge: Is your faith in Jesus strong enough to face hardships and persecution?

    Transforming faith that saves the soul is evident in a transformed life (v9-25)

    • Challenge: Are you allowing the Holy Spirit to change you from the insider, to be like Jesus OR like Simon, are you poisoned by bitterness and bound by iniquity?

    Go where God leads you to go, not where you want to go or think you should be

    • Challenge: Are you obedient to God/the Holy Spirit or yourself?

  • Acts 7 (2018)

    Message on Acts 7.

    What can we learn from the life and death of Stephen?

    God can use ANYONE

    • Challenge: Are you willing AND available?

    God wants us to know His Word

    • Challenge: Do you spend enough time reading and studying God’s Word that you can share with others at a moment’s notice?

    God can make us bold

    • Challenge: Are you emboldened in/by the Spirit or fearful and doubting in your flesh?

    God can help us be like Jesus

    • Challenge: In Philippians 1:21, Paul says “For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” Are you willing to “die” – not necessarily a physical death but putting your flesh to death?
