Strength through Power-Gifts of Healings Acts 1:8 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 Our path to strength is the dynamic of the Spirit of God. It is not the power of human personality, organization or eloquence. Strength through power is displayed through the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. Gifts of Healings defined: the ability to be used as an instrument of God in a supernatural way to restore health. Why is this gift plural? Three levels of healing: physical, emotional/psychological, spiritual. Example of Jesus: Luke 5-paralyzed man with four friends John 5-Lame man at pool of Bethesda Luke 17-Ten lepers Why are the Gifts of Healings needed? Our bodies are important to our ministry. 1 Corinthians 6:15 and 19 Romans 12:1 The Bible gives us instructions for the operation of Gifts of Healings-James 5:14-16 Examples of Gifts of Healings in Acts: Acts 3:1-10 Lame man at the Gate Beautiful Acts 5:12-16 Peter's shadow Acts 9:36-43 Tabitha raised to life Acts 19:11-12 Unusual miracles and Paul's sweat rags Acts 28:1-10 Poisonous snake bite, Father of Publius healed, all those with diseases on Malta healed. +++++++ You can find our service times on our website: https://www.anctally.com/ You can find sermon highlights on Twitter here: https://x.com/allnationstally

Often considered one of the most important books in the New Testament, Acts bridges the life of Christ with the establishment of the Church through the work of the Holy Spirit.Episode Title: Acts - The Book of the Spread of ChristianityIntroduction:Acts is a crucial book for understanding the early Church, detailing its growth from a small group of believers in Jerusalem to a vast community spanning the Roman Empire. Key Points:The Historical Importance of Acts:Acts offers invaluable insights into the early Church, complementing the letters of Paul and other New Testament writings.Luke's narrative style captures pivotal moments and personalities, providing a comprehensive view of the Church's expansion.The Title and Focus of Acts:Traditionally called 'The Acts of the Apostles,' the book primarily highlights the actions of a few key figures, especially Peter and Paul.The correct title could be "Acts of Apostolic Men," emphasizing typical exploits of important early Christian leaders.Luke's Dual Purpose:Acts is a continuation of Luke's Gospel, focusing on the transition from Jesus' life to the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit through the Church.The book is considered unfinished, reflecting the continuing story of Christianity's spread.The Writer - Luke:Luke, a physician and companion of Paul, is identified as the author through internal evidence and early Church tradition.His medical background is evident in his precise use of medical terminology and interest in healing.The Recipient - Theophilus:Acts is addressed to Theophilus, likely a high-ranking Roman official and a Christian.The name Theophilus means 'lover of God,' which might indicate a broader audience of God-fearing individuals.The Message of Acts:The primary theme is the continuing work of Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit, spreading from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth.Luke aims to show that Christianity is a universal faith, meant for all people, regardless of their background.Structure of Acts:The narrative is divided into sections based on geographical expansion and key figures, tracing the Church's growth from Jerusalem to Rome.The book highlights the transition from Jewish roots to a broader Gentile mission.Conclusion:Acts is more than a historical account; it is a theological narrative demonstrating the unstoppable spread of the gospel through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Pastor Daniel continues our series in the book of Acts with a message on how the power of the Gospel is demonstrated by carrying forward the compassion we have received.
JOHNSON CITY - How the early church functioned as a church.
JOHNSON CITY - As we continue our new Acts series, we will be unpacking one of the key moments in human history: the day God gave us the Holy Spirit, the Church was birthed, and the Kingdom has been multiplying ever since then with power.
We launch our new series on Acts in Johnson City, and speak about the Kingdom of God.
(Acts Acts 18:26-28, Romans 16:5, 1 Corinthians 16:9) We are not just stewards of our time or money but of God's truth. Not all of us are preachers or missionaries, yet we are all called to teach others what the Lord has taught us. Who is someone God has placed in your life that you could pour His truth into?

Christ wants to save you and offers salvation to you today. Turn to Him in faith!
The church is still called to send. A church that stops sending is a church that starts dying. Before we're called to minister to people, we're first called to minister to the Lord. To minister is to serve. Let go of the old ways of life and serve God wholeheartedly! It might be your life but it's his story!
In this world there will be trouble. God doesn't promise to deliver us from this trouble but be with us and deliver us through it! Salvation is free, but our calling will cost us. But we serve a God who sticks closer than a brother! He can do much with little. Our faith doesn't have to be perfect for God to move on our behalf!
From the Dawson Family of Faith, Dr. David Eldridge, Senior Pastor, shared a sermon from Acts Acts 15:1–33 entitled "Sola". Go to www.dawsonchurch.org for more information about the ministries and missions at Dawson.
Christianity isn't a religion but a relationship with the living God. You can't earn your own way to heaven. Your goodness will never be good enough. May we never forget where we came from or how lost we were when Jesus came to rescue us from our own sinful nature! We still need the power of God!
Peter's encounter with Cornelius shows us God's nature in a multitude of ways, but the main point is this: No matter the audience, the message remained the same: The Gospel of Jesus Christ. May our message to a lost and dying world remain the same. To continually preach Jesus.
When you have an encounter with God, everything changes. Don't allow fear get in the way of your obedience to God. You were called by God. Your suffering is not vain. Devote yourself to the Lord!
May we take up a posture today where we don't worship comfort but become bold to stand out in the midst of wickedness. We can't blend in the crowd but be willing to stand out and be a witness for Jesus! Don't defend yourself, defend the Gospel! God gives us the grace to endure the call!
It's not what it looks like. There's more happening than what meets the eye. What looks like defeat is actually God's hand at work in those unseen places. God's word cannot and will not return void so don't stop believing! May Jesus go before us, and may we just preach Christ!
Acts Chapter 5 encourages believers to live with integrity: God doesn't benefit from deceit. Rely on the Holy Spirit: When the Holy Spirit goes to work in our lives, wonderful, even miraculous things can happen! Remain faithful under persecution: May we become a people that we can praise in the opportunity to suffer in the name of Jesus! And trust in God's sovereign plans: God didn't promise us peace in our comfort. He promised us peace in his presence!
The church isn't about comfort. We've got to shift from this consumer mentality and come out of our convenience and focus on the mission that's at hand. The great commission is still our mission. May we return to the bold, loving, and truthful preaching of the gospel!
God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things! The Gospels transformative power can't be thwarted by human efforts! We it is by grace through faith in which we are saved and there is no other name but Jesus! May will live with a great boldness and be effective witnesses for the name above all names!
Like the lame man, many of us don't want to change or be transformed, but want the blessing where we are. God doesn't work like that. He isn't just going to comfort you in your condition but deliver you out of it! God is able, and He will. But even if He doesn't, He's still worthy of our praise!
The Holy Spirit: Descended at Pentecost, was promised to us, is worth waiting for, comes as He wills, and is often received as He convicts us and we acknowledge our own emptiness and dependence on Him. Relying on your own strength or efforts will result in emptiness. We need the Spirit! The power is in surrender and reliance on Him to transform the human heart!
The baptism of the Holy Spirit empowers believers to be effective witnesses and fulfill the Great Commission. With the Holy Spirit's indwelling and resting upon believers, He transforms their lives, giving them boldness, love, and consecration to God's purposes! We can be bold in our faith in order to help fulfill the Great Commission by trusting and relying on the Holy Spirit to help us and give us peace.
