As we examine Paul's ministry in Athens we soon realise that it's not very different to ministering the Gospel in Perth. So, by watching Paul in Athens, we learn how we can communicate the Gospel to people with little understanding of who God is or what the Gospel is.

The greatest changes in the world aren't made by mighty leaders but by faithful ministers. You can turn the world upside down one life at a time. Yes, we need people of renown like Paul, Luther, Tyndale, Graham and all but what the world really needs more of is ordinary, faithful ministers.

The Gospel has the power to break every barrier. Where God leads us He is already at work.

After the tragic break up of Paul and Barnabas, Paul sets off with Silas on another journey. Nothing in this passage seems to go to plan and that is how we learn a great lesson. When things don't go as we planned we can be certain they will achieve God's plan.

This is perhaps the most important message any of us will need to hear. It is at the centre of Christian belief. Jesus alone can save! There is no possible way that you can achieve or attain salvation on your own. You need Christ and only Christ.

In this final summary of the first missionary journey of Paul and Barnabas, Luke repeats an important concept of being committed or entrusted to the Lord. This has to do with our life and work as believers, as a church. Passing the Gospel along to others and to the next generation. So here are some, I hope encouraging, thoughts on our role of passing the torch of the Gospel along.

Living for Christ and serving Him is a life that is both agony and ecstasy. Along this first missionary journey we've been reminded that we need to declare the Good News because we are Ambassadors for Christ. How do we do that? How can we each live as ambassadors, missionaries as we've been called to? We go in the power of the Lord, we go for the glory of the Lord, we go in the strength of the Lord.

Paul reminds us that we are to be lights in the world, ambassadors of Christ. As ambassadors we represent our King and His Kingdom in this world. We are also called to encourage the citizens of the Kingdom. So, how can we be good ambassadors of the King? Encourage the people of the King, reach the people of the King and experience the power of the Kingdom.

In the Gospel, God reveals His goodness to us. In declaring the Gospel we are declaring the longsuffering goodness of God that saves from sin. See God's goodness and declare it. The goodness of God prepared, provided and produces salvation.

How does God spread the Gospel through the world? He works through His church as they serve the purpose of God, seek the will of God and send the people of God.

It was in Antioch where we were first called Christians. A derogatory name we were happy to keep. What is a Christian? A follower of Christ and here we learn from the first Christians something of what that means.

Saul's salvation is an example of the great change that takes place in our life when we accept Jesus as Saviour. We become a new person, with a new purpose gathered with a new people on a new path and in pursuit of God we find a new propserity.

The moment Luke has been longing to tell us about, the most famous conversion in history. The glorious call of Paul to salvation has much to teach all of us about God's ordinary work in saving people from sin. No matter who you are, what you've done or where you come from Jesus is the way of salvation.

From Stephen's martyrdom the Gospel begins to spread like a fire through the world. We are reminded that we must carry the Gospel with us always and everywhere we go.

The growing church at Jerusalem faces a problem with the potential to divide and even destroy their testimony. Through grace and humility the church and their leaders are able to work out the solution together for the good of everyone and the glory of God.

In this comedy of events that takes place while trying to stop the Apostles preaching the Gospel we are reminded that the Gospel can't be stopped and so we should never stop proclaiming the Gospel.

Not church is perfect but that doesn't mean a church can't be great and know the power of God. In the examples given of Barnabas and Ananias and Sapphira we see how God can make a church great even though it's full of sinful people. A great church is filled with great grace, filled with great fear of God and has a great testimony.

There is power in the name of Jesus! Not simply in the saying of it but in believing. The name of Jesus is powerful because of what He has done - died, risen and reigning. Faith in His name brings forgiveness, refreshment and blessing.
