Podcasts about Acts 2

This episode answers the major questions surrounding baptism. Considering Acts 2, Emma Dotter and her guest, Tyler Moffett, bring clarity to doctrinal issues such as, “Do I need to get baptized?” and “Is baptism necessary for salvation?” This discussion doesn't stop there but calls maturing believers to their next step of obedience regarding baptism. Then, to wrap up we examine Peter's statement in Acts 2:40, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation.” Is salvation up to you? Can you really save yourself? Listen to dig into this interpretive challenge.   ADDITIONAL VERSES MENTIONED:  Matthew 28:19-20 Galatians 2:20  Colossians 1:13-14 Ephesians 2:8-9 – Salvation not by works Titus 3:5 – Salvation not by works  Deuteronomy 32:5 Matthew 17:17 Philippians 2:14-15  RESOURCES FOR FURTHER STUDY:  Read Watermark's doctrinal statement on Baptism: https://www.watermark.org/about/full-doctrinal-statement   GotQuestions: https://www.gotquestions.org/Christian-baptism.html   How to get baptized at Watermark Community Church: https://www.watermark.org/baptism   Explore the sermon series from Watermark Community Church about what it means to be a Spirit-led church: https://www.watermark.org/series/1471   RELATED JOIN THE JOURNEY EPISODES:  - Overview of the book of Acts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/join-the-journey/id1600151923?i=1000579810400   - What if my possession of the Spirit feels mundane? https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/join-the-journey/id1600151923?i=1000580618106    WHAT IS JOIN THE JOURNEY?  Join The Journey is a realistic daily Bible reading plan that helps us enjoy abiding in Jesus together.

Acts 2:42-47 | Aaron Menikoff | January 16th, 2026

Have you experienced discrepancies between your spiritual life and what you read in Acts? While the early church was unique in many ways, believers still have the same Spirit that we read about in Scripture. In this episode, Emma Dotter and Kylen Perry, Watermark's Executive Director of The Porch, explain who that Spirit is and how he works in our lives and churches today. Then Emma Dotter and Pastor and Author, Kirk Freeman, spend time unpacking the implications of Acts 2, a passage that originally gave unity and clarity to the early church rather than the division it causes now. Listen to learn how to fight for unity despite having different convictions from other believers around you.// ADDITIONAL VERSES MENTIONED: Acts 5: 3-4; Matthew 28: 19-20; John 15: 26; Ephesians 4: 30; Genesis 41; 1: 1-2; 2: 7; Acts 9: 31; Galatians 5: 16-18; John 16: 8; Titus 3: 5 // RESOURCES FOR FURTHER STUDY:  Watermark's doctrinal statement on the Holy Spirit: (https://www.watermark.org/about/full-doctrinal-statement) Wrestling with your convictions on the Holy Spirit?

Through six transformative weeks, we'll explore ancient spiritual practices that awaken wonder.

Communism is back in the headlines, and this episode names what many won't. Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland talk about New York City politics, “democratic socialism,” and why they see it as a rebrand of Communism. They also compare modern state control to Acts 2 communal living, and explain why Acts only works under Christ's rule, not under corrupt power. The conversation covers church and state, freedom, propaganda, and what they call the Dark Side behind replacement thinking. The next episode picks up with the spirit of antichrist and counterfeit kingdoms.

TEACHING SLIDES SERMON REFLECTIONS

The early church devoted themselves to what was most important; to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and the prayers. Their devotion is both personal towards the Lord, within their households, and also as a congregation of faith. The devotion of a believer is both fueled by and encourages  the body of Christ. Ultimately our devotion is limited, but God's is not. He's devoted completely and perfectly to Himself, to His mission, and to us.

To experience the gospel community we were made for and saved into, we must first devote ourselves to it, beginning with learning God's Word together: a truth-based growth in the gospel as we seek to know Jesus more.---We desire to see the Gospel saturate a people, awakening them by the glory of God to treasure Jesus as better.For more Gospel-centered teaching and resources, including audio and video downloads of our sermons, please visit our website: http://www.thewellchurchok.com/resourcesInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/thewellchurchokFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/thewellchurchok

https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Carr1-4-26.mp3 It's tempting to see this passage simply as a descriptive prelude to Peter's sermon from Joel. However, Luke has packed this portion of Scripture with a ton of OT courtroom language intended to indict Israel for their rebellion against God.

Acts 2:22-23 offers an undiluted christology that best represents the beliefs of the New Testament authors. Peter proclaims that Christ was a real human being, whom God empowered to perform miraculous works. The passage also illustrates Jesus as preexisting in God's foreknowledge and predetermined plan, rather than consciously existing in heaven before his birth.    To view the video version of this episode, go here: https://youtu.be/mPSqF6OYsWo       Visit Amazon to buy your copy of A Systematic Theology of the Early Church: https://amzn.to/47jldOc   Visit Amazon to buy your copy of Wisdom Christology in the Gospel of John: https://amzn.to/3JBflHb    Visit Amazon to buy your copy of The Son of God: Three Views of the Identity of Jesus: https://amzn.to/43DPYey   To support this podcast, donate here: https://www.paypal.me/10mintruthtalks   Episode notes: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11uBt9NT8UPEiMSGc9FxhqhA2Zw45eEoJ8xfI1G8bhwE/edit?usp=sharing        Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BiblicalUnitarianPodcast       Follow on X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/OneGodPodcast
