We can get filled with the venom of bitterness but we have the power to shake it off and not let is hurt us anymore. Pastor Jayelle gives us 4 antidotes to how we can cure our bitterness and shake off the snake just like Paul did in the book of Acts.

Pastor James Roberson III “Be more committed to God's assignment than your comfort.” Acts 1:1-11

What if the key to unlocking the mysteries of salvation lies within the pages of Saint John Paul II's reflections on the Book of Acts?  Today's podcast was dually inspired, first by a recently published book, in 2019, based on newly discovered reflections by Saint John Paul II on the famous passage in the book of Acts where the apostle Paul speaks to the skeptical Greeks about the 'unknown God.'   Secondly, as fate would have it, by a text I received from a young woman who had been sexually abused, just as I was about to  write down my reflections of John Pauls book. Per the book, Teachings for an Unbelieving World, each brief teaching contained within is a gem taking us ever deeper into the mind of St. John Paul and the mystery of salvation. Today I will also tackle St. Paul's exhortation in Philippians 2:12, urging us to work out our salvation with fear and trembling, and Ephesians 2 which illuminates how Christ bridges the gap between us and God, and us and our fellow man.Does the prospect of a world void of grace chillingly resonate with you? It's time we examine the severe implications of not knowing God and the weighty responsibility of living out the Gospel. We bear witness to the monumental role of pastors and parents in projecting this message and delve into the transformative power of grace that empowers us to triumph over sin and eternal death. As we carry the torch of faith, our actions shed light into the world, a beacon of hope amid the darkness.In the final leg of our journey, we take a hard look at society's fallen culture, the erosion of morals, values, virtues, and the devastating ripple effect it has on the fabric of our world. Drawing wisdom from 1 Corinthians 1:22-25, we uncover the profound truth that God's foolishness is wiser than human wisdom, and His weakness stronger than human strength. Let us inspire you to embrace these teachings, arming yourself with the shield of faith, to navigate the tides of life with grace, courage and conviction.We need your support to expand our Parish out reach.

“But I do not count my life of any value, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.” The Apostle Paul said those words to the Ephesian elders in the book of Acts, chapter twenty. It was a farewell address, as many of those present would never see him again. Today, Ron takes us to some of Paul's final words as he continues his teaching series, “Paul: Surprised by Grace.”   --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/something-good-radio/support

As we're nearing the end of our series, “Our House”, today really speaks to some conversations we had in our previous series with Natalie Runion. What happens when your church begins to have internal struggles, disagreements and even division? It doesn't have to be the end of this ministry. In fact, we see in the book of Acts, the early church was already facing these same issues. But the good news is that the Word of God also has some keen insights and advice on how to find resolution.   Acts 6:1-4 Series: Our House https://salvationarmysoundcast.org/wordsoflife

Pastor Peter Verhulst | Acts 11:19-30; 13:1-5

This week in our series through the book of Acts, our Lead Pastor, Miles Fidell, delivers a word from Acts 15 revealing how God purifies our hearts through faith, instilling in us a willingness to obey Him, ultimately leading us to new life.

Young, married, and with a baby on the way, Cynthia Anderson and her husband set out for Nepal to “take new ground for the gospel,” bringing Jesus to the unreached. But God was already working in Nepal. “We weren't taking Him there,” Cynthia says, “He was [already] there!” Today, decades later, Cynthia is a longtime gospel worker in multiple nations and a trainer of pastors, mission agency and other Kingdom-minded leaders in how to multiply disciples and catalyze Jesus movements in their areas. She is a leader in YWAM Frontier Missions. Listen as Cynthia shares what it truly looks like to make disciples and train others to continue making disciples, launching Disciple Making Movements (DMM). Her new book, The Multiplier's Mindset: Thinking Differently About Discipleship, examines the mindset shifts that need to take place in order for multiplication of the gospel to happen. As a young missionary, Cynthia was drawn to examples from the gospels and the book of Acts. “I was so convinced by scripture. Wow! God uses ordinary, broken people; people who don't have their act together. Faith rose up in my heart to believe: ‘God can do it here; God can do it through us!'” The harvest fields are ripe, even in Western nations. Research shows that only 3 out of 10 unchurched people in America have had a Christian explain the gospel to them. Listen to Cynthia share stories of persecuted Christians who have become obedient disciples of Christ passionate to reach their people with the gospel. “Keep disciple making easy and actionable,” Cynthia advises. “When we have a simple repeatable pattern and people are like, ‘I can do that,' it is reproducible, even by a brand-new believer.” As you listen, you'll also learn how you can pray for our persecuted family who are making disciples among their own people. You can learn more about Cynthia's work on her blog and by listening to her first interview on VOM Radio. Never miss an episode of VOM Radio! Subscribe to the podcast.

Chocolate MilkJohn 20:21-22 “Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit."This verse takes place after Jesus has been crucified. The apostles are all locked up in the upper room because they are afraid if the Jewish people knew where they were, they would be crucified, too. I am sure this was a very confusing time for the apostles. They had been living life with Jesus for the last few years. Every day extraordinary things happened. Then they find out that Jesus is going to be crucified. I mean, they knew Jesus had enemies, but I don't think they understood what was truly going on. How could they? How is it possible to comprehend the man they had been following, the man they knew was the one true king, was going to be crucified? The Messiah was supposed to come and deliver them from their captives. Yet Jesus hadn't defeated the Romans yet. How could He be leaving them?I am sure this thought was going through so many people's minds at the time. It must have been very confusing. They had read or been taught that when the Messiah comes, He will save them. They assume this means He will save them from the Roman occupation. They don't realize that Jesus is here for much bigger things. Jesus has come to save their souls.The apostles are locked in the upper room, and Jesus appears to them. I wonder if they were frightened at first. I wonder if they asked Him if it was really Him. Take a minute, close your eyes, and try to picture what it was like for them in that upper room. The man they thought was the Lord was crucified, and then they felt they needed to lock themselves in a room for fear of death, and then Jesus appeared to them in this locked room. I wonder if they thought He was a ghost? I wonder what they were thinking, what was going through their mind.It says in the verse above this one that Jesus showed them his hands and feet, and then they rejoiced that He had risen. The first thing that Jesus did, even before showing them His hands and feet, was to impart peace to them. The first thing He said in that room was, “Peace be with you.” I think this makes perfect sense because they probably weren't very peaceful. They were scared and unsure of what to do next.After Jesus shows them his wounds, and they rejoice that He has returned, Jesus talks to them. “Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” Jesus knows they are confused about what just happened and what is going to happen. They had been following Jesus. That was their job, their life for the last several years. They had to have been wondering what they were going to do now that Jesus was gone. Then Jesus appeared and told them what to do. He told them that He was sending them out to do the works that He did. This gives them some direction and some guidance.However, how could they go out and do the things that He did when they were scared of persecution? The next line answers this. It says, “When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.” Jesus gave them the Holy Spirit to build them up and give them strength. The Holy Spirit gave them a holy boldness to go out and proclaim the good news about Jesus Christ. It gave them the courage to come out of the locked room and say all the things they had been taught to say. They witnessed all they had seen and heard over the several years they were with Jesus. They had the courage to leave the room, and that very same day, they baptized 3,000.This is the same Holy Spirit that each one of us has living inside of us. We each, you and me, have the Spirit of Christ living inside of us. We have the potential to have this same holy boldness that the apostles exhibited. We have the potential to do all the signs and wonders that they did. The reason for this is that they were only capable of doing signs and wonders because Jesus gave them the authority, and He gave the Holy Spirit. Jesus didn't just give these gifts to the apostles, and then they died with them 2,000 years ago. When Jesus gave them to the apostles, He was giving them to all those who were to follow after them as well.If you have been baptized, you have received the Holy Spirit. This means you have all the power and all the courage that the apostles had living inside of you. You just have to access it. There is an analogy that I heard in Encounter Ministries, and I have also heard it at the Life in the Spirit seminars. I am not sure exactly how it goes, but it basically compares our lives to a glass of chocolate milk. Our life before the Holy Spirit, before baptism, is just plain milk. However, when you add the Holy Spirit, it is like you are adding chocolate sauce to the milk. Now that we have added the chocolate sauce, do we automatically have chocolate milk? No, we need to stir the milk to spread the chocolate sauce all around. This is similar to the Holy Spirit.The Holy Spirit can give you the power and the courage to do many things, but you need to call up it. You need to step out in faith and believe that it will be there to help you. Once you start calling upon the Holy Spirit to help you, then you will begin to see extraordinary things start to happen all around you. All you have to do is read the book of Acts in the Bible to see all the amazing things the apostles accomplished once they had the Holy Spirit living inside of them. Check out the book of Acts and then decide what amazing things you are going to do with this beautiful gift of the Holy Spirit that Jesus gave us.Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those listening today. Lord, thank you for giving us the Holy Spirit. You are amazing. Thank you for giving us the authority to do the works that Jesus did and even great works now that He is with you in Heaven. Lord, we ask that you help us to see the ways you want us to use the power of the Holy Spirit in our own lives. Help us to see what you want us to do. We love you, Lord, and we ask all of this in accordance with our will and in Jesus' holy name, Amen!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus.

Throughout Scripture, we see situations where God protected entire families because of His relationship with one family member. In the Book of Acts, God saves the lives of an entire boat full of people just because the Apostle Paul is onboard. Then, in Corinthians, He tells us of a supernatural effect we can have on the life of an unbelieving spouse. Join me this week in CyberChurch as we explore the supernatural way we can stand in the gap for our family members.

 The Kingdom Unleashed: "How to Improve Your Testimony" By Bobby Wallace, Lead Minister 9/24/23 If you've ever felt like your testimony or story wasn't impactful enough, you're not alone. What can you do to allow your life to make an impact. As we look at the conversion accounts of Paul in the book of Acts, we see 4 questions you must ask answer if you want to make an impact for the Kingdom.

Luke, the author of the book of Acts, employs a sophisticated literary technique known as Inclusio to illuminate his audience's grasp of his narrative. Inclusio functions akin to bookends, where the author strategically positions a central concept at the outset and conclusion of a composition, signifying that everything enclosed within serves to reinforce this central idea. Within the book of Acts, this Inclusio masterfully directs our attention to the Kingdom of God as the overarching theme of Luke's writing. Join us on an enlightening journey as we delve into this captivating literary device, skillfully woven throughout the pages of the Bible. Explore its intricacies and unveil the profound insights it imparts.

The “Gospel of Luke” contains the words and acts of Jesus in human flesh.  The “Book of Acts” contains the words and acts of the resurrected Jesus.  Following the Ascension of Jesus a second remarkable story picks up where the first story ended.  This story is best described as the “Book of the Acts and Words of Jesus live on. The first story begins with a baby Jesus in Bethlehem.  The second story begins with the Baby Body of Jesus the Lord in Jerusalem.

Pastor Peter Verhulst | Acts 10

Jesus didn't make it difficult for people to turn to God, he made it simple. This idea is based on biblical principles found in the book of Acts. This is one of the most foundational passages that informs and inspires so much of what we do at Northpoint.In this message series, we will share how Northpoint started, where we are headed, and what our dreams and goals are with you in mind. We want to make it clear where to go, what to expect, and how to see yourself here. We want to be intentional about our environments with the assumption that we have guests every single week mustering up the courage to give church a shot. We want to know! If there is anything we are doing that is making it weird or difficult to engage, we want to know. If there is anything that you think would make it feel safer for you to invite a friend, we want to know that too! ➡️ https://forms.gle/22wAErj81WtnBSDT8MUSIC:GiantsWhat A Beautiful NameRun To The FatherNEXT STEPS: Wherever you are, we want to help you discover what's next.https://www.npaustin.com/whatsnextSTAY CONNECTED: Subscribe to stay up-to-date on all things Northpoint: https://www.youtube.com/@NorthpointAustinWebsite: https://npaustin.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/experienceno...Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/northpoint_ch/ABOUT US:We believe that for too long, the church has been known for what it's against.  We want to be known for what we're FOR – our community, healthy relationships, the next generation, and people discovering a God who loves them. Vision: To inspire people to follow Jesus.Mission: Make Jesus relevant for everyone in Greater Austin.Thank you for giving to support our vision and mission: https://www.npaustin.com/give#Jesus #heart #God #encouragement #soul #churchonline #Northpoint #2023 #church #wisdom #inspiration #faith #freedom #connection #NorthpointAustin

ACTS: The Triumph of the Gospel“SERVING AND BEING SERVED”Acts 28:1-16“Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart, praising God and having favor with all the people.”  (Acts 2:46-47). “And the word of God kept on spreading; and the number of the disciples continued to increase greatly . . .”  (Acts 6:&). “So the church throughout Judea and Galilee and Samaria enjoyed peace, being built up; and going on the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, it continued to increase.”  (Acts 9:31). “So the churches were being strengthened in the faith, and were increasing in number daily.”  (Acts 16:5). “So the word of the Lord was growing mightily and prevailing.”  (Acts 19:20). WOW!!   Just about on every page of the book of Acts we see the amazing story of THE TRIUMPH OF THE GOSPEL even in the darkest of times.   So what did the early church as described in Acts have that the modern church today doesn't have?  Answer:  ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!  God has given to us today the very same thing that He gave the early church.  As we begin our journey into this faithful and carefully written history of the early church by Doctor Luke, let's pray that God will instill a new excitement and joy for what He has done and can continue to do by His Holy Spirit through the Church of Jesus Christ today, so that the TRIUMPH OF THE GOSPEL  can be experienced even now in the dark days in which we live.

Happy Interruptions Acts 12:6-19 Teacher: Jon Morales, Lead Pastor of Oak Pointe Church “An unsuspected turn of events that completely changes the outcome from the direction it was likely to go” Few things captivate an audience like a plot twist. Who doesn't love that mind-blowing, never-saw-it-coming feeling they get when the same-old story takes a staggering turn? As we continue our series “Against All Odds: How the Name of Jesus Spreads,” we're taking a front-row seat to one of the book of Acts' most dramatic plot twists. Join us for our newest message, “Happy Interruptions,” to see God's hand at work in the most unexpected ways.

As we jump into the Book of Acts, we are introduced to the star of the show: The Holy Spirit. He is not new to God's story. He has been working mostly behind the scenes since time began. In chapter 2 we see Him burst into the limelight and into the hearts of the new believers and the early church. From this point on, He will play a very personal and public role in the life of every believer.

Why do we do what we do? Pastor Lee begins a new series through the book of Acts and we examine why we love and lead all people to new life with Christ =. Welcome to Heights Baptist Church! Our mission is to love and to lead all people to a new life with Christ.

The Gospel is simple; explaining the Gospel can be quite complex. God did not give us the entire Bible only to have us throw out everything except a platitude or a statement like "God loves you." There is good reason for the Bible to be written as is. God reveals Himself through story, and I will demonstrate a little of how that story works today.❤️ SHOW YOUR SUPPORT - LINKS BELOW...➡️ DONATE ➡️  Join our team!https://www.givesendgo.com/karlgessle...https://www.patreon.com/karlgesslerSocial Media➡️Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...➡️Telegram - https://t.me/FaithoftheFathers➡️Truth Social - https://truthsocial.com/@UCLOvq6O4aIX... ➡️Gab - https://gab.com/KarlGesslerSupport the show
