Are you ready to die for the Lord? This question is one everyone hates to answer because it is hypothetical. I would venture to say that most of us here would say “yes” without thinking it through like Peter did when our Lord told they would all run away when he was arrested. This may […]

Why does the Church matters even in the 21st century? It is important for us as well as we begin a new year, perhaps a very decisive year as a church. This is why I decided that we need to address this because we need to align ourselves with what God says about the church.

Let’s look at Joseph’s dilemma (he was between the ages of 18-20), how God ruins his plan and what his response was to what He intended to do in his life. This will help us respond to God’s leading our lives even when we don’t think it is the path we want to go.   […]

Paul had just travelled four days as he arrives in Miletus. Here the boat will probably unload and pick more passengers. Due to time constrains, Paul decides to call the Ephesian elders to Miletus (a 30 mile journey). He will give them his “farewell” address and encourage them to lead the church well as he […]

From the apostle Paul, the pastor and church planter we learn the value of encouraging one another to keep growing in the faith as we live in the world sharing the Good News of Jesus. We use the Word of God along with our times of gathering where we also share the Lord’s Supper and […]

As we saw in our last section, people who were in bondage to the occult are freed and made whole. They leave these practices and idolatry to follow the living God. The Gospel transforms the way we live and those things that we thought were worthwhile become meaningless in light of the cross. When this […]

Here we see Paul used by the Lord in various ways. These serve as an example for us today. How can we who are also called servants of God serve Him? We may not do exactly like Paul did but we all can learn from him to do in our own context. These relate more […]

Affirming (strengthening, supporting) others in faith is just as important as making sure our faith is steadfast. We have been called to encourage and build one another up in the Lord. Why is it important? Because our faith is lived in the community of believers, that is, the church. We were not called to be […]

Is there such a thing as silent believers? It is easy for us believers to be silent about our faith. We don’t want to offend people. We want to live quiet lives. But our calling is to proclaim the gospel in good times and bad. God is with us. It always will. We must not […]

In the passage we will study today, Paul shares the gospel with a totally different group than those he has shared at this time. Unlike those in Thessalonica, Berea, where he shared Scripture with them, these men are polytheists, religious philosophers who have no background to religious Jewry. Similar to Joseph in the story where […]
