Truth isn’t something we feel—it’s something God reveals. In this message, Dr. Tony Evans shows why Scripture must be the ultimate standard by which everything else is measured. Join us for a look at The Glory of God’s Word.

It’s a topic most of us would rather avoid, but the truth is, death is something we’ll all face one day. Yet according to Scripture, it’s actually the moment we’ve been preparing for all along. That’s what we’ll be exploring on this episode of Know The Truth with a study on the life of Joseph.

Sermon Overview

Scripture Passage: Acts 8-10

Jesus Christ commanded us to take the Gospel to the darkest corners of this Earth, and God has given us open doors to all the world. In our own way and opportunity, each of us is called, ordained, and equipped to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

In the Book of Acts, the conversions of three men reveal why it is so important to witness to others.

In Acts 8, the conversion of the Ethiopian man shows us that all people have a common hunger to know God, even if we don’t understand it yet.

Adrian Rogers says, “Man doesn’t primarily need a boost from beneath; he needs a birth from above.”

In Acts 9, the conversion of Saul—who later became Paul, an apostle of Christ— reminds us that all people have a common heartache. All the intelligence and money in the world couldn’t buy the satisfaction that is found only in Christ.

In Acts 10, the conversion of Cornelius tells us that all people have a common hope—Jesus.

Back-to-back, we are shown through Scripture that the hope of Africa is Jesus, the hope of Asia (Paul the Apostle) is Jesus, and the hope of Europe (Cornelius) is Jesus.

All people need the same help. The hope of the world is Jesus.

God told Phillip, Annanias, and Peter to “Go.” He took their availability, expendability, and adaptability, and used them to share the Gospel with men who would carry it even further, to the uttermost places on Earth.

Adrian Rogers says, “A Christian who refuses to go is not missing a blessing; he’s guilty of high treason against Heaven’s King.”

We all have the same heartaches and hunger that are only satisfied through our common hope in Jesus Christ. And remember: Jesus will save anybody who is willing to come to Him.

They may not even know that it is God they are searching for, but each and every man needs to know Him. It is our job, as a Christian community, to help them.

Apply it to your life

Are you available, expendable, and adaptable, ready to be used by God? Somebody needs you desperately! All men need the same help—they need somebody to tell them about Jesus and that somebody is you.
