By now, with our study of Acts and Genesis on Abraham, we would have realised that Abraham and his entire life is not a story….. BUT a constant reminder of a Man whose walk with God pioneered the walk of faith. He had no one to follow… no Old Testament or New Testament scriptures to reference, no online or YouTube messages or no church messages, like you and I have…. just about 19 times in 30 years when God spoke to him…. BUT HE BELIEVED GOD….

ages, like you and I have…. just about 19 times in 30 years when God spoke to him…. BUT HE BELIEVED GOD….

This teaching is a follow up on what we have been doing as a series in the book of Acts. Stephen summarizes major Old Testament event that points to the coming of the Messiah. In this series, we will be growing through some of those events.

The Impossible Grace of God

How many of you know how to swim? When you’re underwater, how do you breathe?

How many of you would say that you have had at least one major crisis in your life? I think being in a crisis – the death of a family member, sickness, accidents, depression, loneliness, a pandemic,- these are crises and I find that it feels like your underwater. It forces us to behave in ways that we wouldn’t under normal circumstances. What we do in a crisis will determine whether we progress and become strong, or we sink.

Genesis 4

Promises of blessing were given to Abraham and it was Lot who tagged along.

The problem was it was a problem of “ too much”. The Land could not support them. Last week we saw how Abraham and Lot separated.

In the world, we have Christ-followers and those who do not follow Christ. What about the church? We have two types of Believers and those who have not yet put their faith in Christ. We pray that God will work in our lives.

We are looking at the life of Abram.

Today what we are going to see is Abram is tested again and how he is going to respond to that.

A GODLY RESPONSE TO A CONFLICT

We face different kinds of conflict in our life. As a Christian how are we supposed to respond to these conflicts? In today’s scripture, we will see how Abraham got into a conflict situation with Lot and how Abraham and Lot responded to this conflict. Let us thereby learn from Abraham’s godly response and mistakes of Lot.

Man of faith

Summary: Being called out to leave a place of comfort, being given promises which seem unnatural, Abram (Abraham) Displays incredible faith. A “Father” worth modelling our lives on.

STEPHENS AMAZING OUTREACH OPERATION

- AN ATTEMPT TO WIN THE COUNCIL TO JESUS

A STUDY ON THE CALL OF ABRAHAM

As we heard Colin quote vs 60 of Acts 7: Lord lay not this sin to their charge….. was it just I, or did you also see a replica or a draw a parallel to an incident that had but recently occurred… the death of Jesus and the events leading up to this were so similar  - that finding no fault in Jesus they accused him falsely and crucified him. Blasphemy, as Colin said, was a crime worthy of death…. Jealousy and envy stand out most,  but more importantly, they could not withstand the Spirit of Wisdom that was upon Jesus and now upon Stephen

There was a time of supernatural growth. Acts 2:42, 4:4, 5:14 and on and on and one. Would you have wanted to be a part of that church?

However, in the middle of this move of the Spirit and Word, it was not a perfect church. Some people are looking for the perfect church.
