Text: Acts 22:1-30. In the previous chapter Paul is arrested, and in this chapter Paul gives his testimony to the Jews about his conversion and call (vv. 3-4, 6-7, 21-22). He knew that the Jews would be angry, but he spoke the truth any way. As it was in yesterday’s reading, so there is a[…]
Text: Acts 21:1-40. As Paul travelled to Jerusalem after a mission journey, he stayed in Caesarea for several days. While he was there, a certain prophet said that Paul was going to be arrested in Jerusalem (vv.10-14). The fellow believers grieved over this news and begged him not to go.

Text: Acts 20:1-38. In this passage Paul meets with a Church for worship on the first day of the week, Sunday, the Lord’s Day.

Text: Acts 19:1-41. This passage is often mis-understood (vv.1-7). So, because it is about the ministry of the Holy Spirit, we should consider it.

He noticed how “religious” they were with all their idols, including an altar “To the unknown god”. Paul[…]
Text: Acts 16:1-40). When the Holy Spirit converts a person, s/he is brought into a covenant relationship with God. But God does not covenant with individuals only. He includes families (vv. 14-15, 30-33). The greatest example of that is found in Gen.17:14. God covenanted with Abraham, gave him the sign of the covenant (circumcision) and[…]
Today’s topic attempts to demonstrate what the believers’ response to God’s commands ought to be. In Luke 17:1-4, Jesus teaches about forgiveness and the place for rebuke in God’s Kingdom.
