The Temple Comes to Samaria Acts 8:4-25 by William Klock Remember back in Chapter 5, when Peter and John were arrested and brought before the priests and elders, and Gamaliel, one of the leading Pharisees, told his fellow council members: “Leave them alone. If what they're doing is of human origin, it will come to ruin. But if it's from God, you won't be able to stop them. You might even be found to be fighting against God.” They let Peter and John go that day, but since then they haven't been heeding Gamaliel's advice. They stoned Stephen. And at the end of last week's text Luke told us that Saul of Tarsus was going house to house, dragging men and women to prison and that, while the apostles remained in Jerusalem, everyone else was scattered through Jerusalem and Samaria. And it turns out Gamaliel was right. Neither Saul nor anyone else could stop what God was doing. This new temple, not made with hands, not made of bricks and mortar, but instead of people, purified by the blood of Jesus and indwelt themselves by God's Spirit, this temple was going to fill the earth. Persecution won't stop it. Just the opposite, in fact. Luke writes in Acts 8:4 [Page 1089 in the pew Bibles]: “Those who were scattered went all over the place announcing the word.” These were people who knew, first hand, the transforming power of the gospel. Many of them had been eyewitnesses to the risen Jesus. They had seen signs and wonders, done by Jesus and then done by the apostles. They knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that God was at work and Israel's hopes were being fulfilled. There was no stopping them. If they had to flee Jerusalem, so much the better. Now the good news about Jesus would be proclaimed all over the place. Think back to Stephen's speech before the Sanhedrin and how he'd highlighted how God works through rejection and persecution. Joseph's brothers had sold him as a slave, but through their evil God delivered his people. Ditto with Moses. Pharaoh wanted all the baby boys of the Hebrews drowned, so Moses' mother put him in a basket and Providence floated him down the river right to Pharaoh's daughter. And Jesus, the supreme example: The forces of evil and death rose up to do their worst in killing Jesus, but in doing so they played right into God's hands. They concentrated themselves all in one place, in one great act, allowing Jesus to rise from death to conquer them. So Saul of Tarsus, threatening the church? God's going to use that to—to get the gospel out of Jerusalem, to all of Judaea—and even to Samaria. So Philip. You remember Philip? He was one of the seven in Chapter 6, whom the church chose and laid hands on to do the work that was taking the apostles away from their prayer and preaching. Stephen was another of them. When the church calls people and lays hands on them and commissions them to be servants of the gospel, there's no telling where that may lead. So “Philip,” says Luke in verse 5, “went off to a town in Samaria and announced the Messiah to them.” I suspect no one would have thought—or wanted—to take the gospel to Samaria—at least not for a long time—even though Jesus had said that his church would take the gospel there. But in the context of Acts, I think Luke wants to stress that even more than taking the gospel to Samaria, what Philip is doing is taking the temple there. And that's pretty significant. Samaria was the piece of land between the two Jewish territories, between Judaea in the south and Galilee in the north. The Samaritans were the people who had lived there while the Jews were off in exile in Babylon. We don't really know for certain the origins of the Samaritans. They claimed—and they still claim, as they're still there to this day—that they're the descendants of what was left of the northern Israelite tribes after the nation was destroyed by the Assyrians. The Jews claimed that the Samaritans were the people resettled in the land by the Babylonians after they'd sent the Jewish people into exile. There's probably some truth to both. Whatever the case, the Samaritans followed their own form of Judaism. They had their own version of the torah, of the first five books of the Old Testament. They rejected the Prophets and other books. They looked forward to their own version of the Messiah. They called him the Ta'eb or “The Returner”—the prophet Moses promised would come. But maybe what's most important in the context of Acts, was that the Samaritans had their own temple on Mt. Gerizim. The Jews would never let them anywhere near the temple in Jerusalem—they weren't real Jews and they had corrupted Israelite religion—but even if the Jews allowed them into the temple, the Samaritans would never go there. As far as they were concerned, theirs was the real temple. The Samaritans were a people utterly without God's presence. And now Philip finds his way there and carries the for real real temple to a people who didn't even know the old one. And when God's temple arrives in Samaria, the people can't help but notice. Verse 6: “The crowds, acting as one, clung to what Philip was saying, as they heard him and saw the signs he performed. For unclean spirits came out of many of them, and several who were paralyzed or lame were cured. So there was great joy in that town.” “But there was a man named Simon, who had lived in the town for some while and who practiced magic. He used to astonish the Samaritan people, giving out that he was some great personage. Everyone, small and great alike, paid attention to him, and said, “This man is the one called ‘God's Great Power'!” [Luke might be hinting that the people thought of Simon as maybe being the Ta'eb, the Samaritan “Messiah”.] They had been under his spell for some time, since they were amazed at the magic he could perform. But when they believed Philip as he was announcing to them the message about God's kingdom and the name of Jesus the Messiah, they were baptized, men and women alike. Simon too believed and was baptized, paying close attention to Philip. When he saw signs, and great and powerful deeds, it was his turn to be astonished.” The devil was doing one thing in Judaea in a futile attempt to quash the gospel. He was doing something else to the same end in Samaria. He'd been doing it for a long time, leading the Samaritans away from God's torah and God's temple. Now there's this man, Simon, who has enchanted these Samaritans with his magic. Maybe it was just sleight of hand magic, but the way Luke, throughout Acts, contrasts magic with the power of the Holy Spirit, it seems like Simon actually did have some kind of power and if that power wasn't from God, it was coming from demonic forces of some kind. That's just the sort of thing the devil would do to lead people astray. But Philip, empowered by God's Spirit, it's obvious to everyone—even to Simon—his power was different and it was far superior. Seeing it, these people believed the good news about Jesus that Philip was proclaiming. And they did what believers do: they were baptised. Like Israel following God through the Red Sea and into the promised land, in faith these Samaritan followed Jesus through the waters of baptism and into God's new creation. Samaritans embracing and giving their allegiance to Jesus may not seem like a big deal to us, but it was a really big deal to everyone involved. Again, Samaritans and Jews didn't mix. Even though Jesus had said that his disciples would take the good news to Samaria, they had no plan to go there—and probably little or no desire to. But God had a plan to get them there, and when Philip does end up in Samaria, he doesn't let that hold him back. It's pretty clear that these early believers thought of the gospel as something for Jews, but—hey—if gentiles came to them and wanted in, if Samaritans heard and believed, that was great. They saw God at work in these people, even if these people weren't their evangelistic priority. And yet, something odd happens. These Samaritans hear the gospel, see God at work, they believe, they're baptised, but there's something missing. I suspect Philip noticed it immediately and sent word back to Jerusalem—excited on one hand, but concerned on the other. Verse 14: “When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received God's word, they sent Peter and John to them. When they arrived, they prayed for them, asking that they would receive the Holy Spirit, since up to that point the Spirit had come upon none of them; they had simply been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus. Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.” Like I said, something was missing. The Spirit was clearly at work. Faith in Jesus is a gift of the Spirit and no one comes to Jesus without the Spirit first moving in the heart. But so far in Acts, when people believed and were baptised, they all had some kind of experience of being transformed by the Spirit They were obviously different. The Spirit did a work of new creation in them. And they typically—and immediately—displayed supernatural gifts. Some prophesied, some healed, some spoke in other languages, and so on. Whenever we see God doing something new in the story of redemption, it's usually got miracles clustered all around it and we see this no less in the early days of the church. Bringing Samaritans to Jesus was very much something new. But this time the miracles didn't happen. I expect Philip was surprised. What was wrong? So he sent word to Jerusalem and Peter and John decided to go see for themselves. And, sure enough, something was missing. These people had believed, but the Spirit—God—hadn't yet come to live in them They were not yet part of the new temple. I don't know if Peter and John understood everything at this point. I suspect that they just recognised that these new believers were lacking the indwelling Spirit. It was weird and inexplicable at the time. And so Peter and John just did the only thing that made sense: they laid their hands on these people and prayed that God would give them his Spirit. And God did. Luke doesn't say how it was obvious, but it was apparently obvious that the Spirit had filled the Samaritans. And I think as time passed, Peter and John and the others started to figure out what God was doing in withholding the very thing—I should say, the very person—who fulfils God's promises to dwell with his people. By the time Luke wrote, it all made perfect sense. You see, there was always a danger that the Samaritans would hear the gospel and believe, but that because of the divide between them and the Jews, the Samaritans would end up with a separate church of their own. A lot of them would have been perfectly happy to have it that way and plenty of Jewish believers would no doubt be happy to have it that way. But that would undermine the very gospel itself. God doesn't have multiple people. He has one. With all our divisions in the church today, it's easy to forget this, but Jesus was clear: God has one people and one of the essentials of the gospel is that it heals the breaches, heals the divisions, heals the animosity between the people of the world. We saw the first dramatic sign of this healing at Pentecost as the men there heard the gospel proclaimed in their own languages. It was a dramatic reversal of the Tower of Babel episode. And now it happens with the Samaritans. God withholds his Spirit from them in order to get Peter and John to pray and lay hands on them and in that God makes it clear to everyone that they are all united in Jesus and the Spirit. The apostles and the Jewish believers can't dismiss the Samaritan believers and neither can the Samaritans—with their long history of doing their own thing and having their own temple—neither can they act as if they have no need of or can be separate from the Jewish believers. We need to be careful we don't mistake Luke's point here. We often read this passage at confirmations when the bishop lays hands on us and prays for us to be strengthened by the Holy Spirit. But Luke wasn't thinking about confirmation. Confirmation is a rite that developed centuries later. Pentecostals and Charismatics use this passage to explain their experience, arguing that this passage proves that receiving the Holy Spirit is a second work of grace apart from baptism and conversion. But that's not Luke's point either. In fact, his point is that what happened with the Samaritans, with God withholding the Spirit, was unique—a one-off thing—that was necessary to ensure everyone knew that there is one church, one body and that our unity in diversity is one of the gospel's most powerful witnesses to God setting the human race to rights. The whole thing that made this episode stand out was the delay in the Samaritans receiving the Holy Spirit, because the indwelling of the Spirit it not a second blessing or a second work of grace. It's what happens when we believe and are baptised. It's what makes us God's temple. Jesus purifies us so that the Spirit can fill us. And then Simon the Magician. The gospel goes to a new place, but the same old problem comes up again. In Jerusalem it was Ananias and Sapphira. The devil crept in. They let their love of money compromise the purity so essential to being God's temple. They serve as a warning: Jesus purifies us so that we can be God's temple, but to remain God's temple requires continued purity. And now the Samaritan believers their own warning about this. Verse 18: “When Simon saw that the spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money. “Give me this power too,” he said, “so that anyone I lay my hands on will receive the holy spirit.” “May your silver die with you!” retorted Peter. “Did you really think that God's gift could be bought with money? You have no part or share in this word! Your heart is not straight before God. So repent from this wickedness, and pray to the Lord. Perhaps he will forgive the scheme you had in your heart. I can see that you are still stuck in the bitter poison and chains of unrighteousness.” “Pray to the Lord for me,” said Simon in reply, “that none of what you've said will happen to me.” After Peter and John had finished bearing witness and speaking the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, announcing the good news to many Samaritan villages.” Simon liked the status his magic gave him. And now he sees something really amazing, something that clearly and dramatically upstaged whatever it was that he was doing. And Simon wanted it. But it wasn't so much the Holy Spirit that Simon wanted. Tricks were nice. He'd been doing them for a long time. But what Simon wanted was the ability to control people. He didn't want the Holy Spirit. He wanted what he thought Peter and John had: he wanted the ability to lay hands on people and to give them the Spirit. And in that, Simon was exposed. It wasn't about Jesus for Simon. It wasn't about being God's temple. It wasn't about being purified by the cross. It wasn't about being part of God's new creation. Simon was still firmly part of the old. He wanted to use and control people for his own personal gain and prestige. His old magic had been upstaged. No one would be impressed by it anymore. But if he could be like Peter and John, if he could lay hands on people himself and impart the Spirit to them, well, then he's be back on top of things. For those who read The Magician's Nephew this month, he's like Uncle Andrew, seeing a new world being miraculously born around him and new life sprouting from the ground, and all he can think of is bring bits of iron to plant so they can grow into factories and battleships to make him rich. He was blind. He heard the gospel. He heard the good news about Jesus. He saw the life the Spirit in these people and he saw new creation being born. But he wasn't interested any of it. He just wanted to be in control. He saw it as a way to get rich. So he offers to buy this gift from Peter and John—as if it was theirs to sell. As if it was their power to impart the Spirit. But Peter and John had no such power. They didn't go around laying hands on people and giving them the Spirit any more than a modern-day Anglican bishop or Pentecostal evangelist does so. This was a unique situation. God gives the Spirit, not men, not preachers, not bishops, not even apostles. This was simply a case in which it was necessary for both the Jews and the Samaritans to understand that they were one people in Jesus and the Spirit. The crazy thing is that we still see this sort of thing despite all the warnings in scripture. There are far too many people out there, preachers—people calling themselves “apostles”—offering the Spirit or his gifts for money, as if those gifts are the work of human beings and not God. I expect that when Simon asked Peter and John to sell him this gift—one they didn't even actually have—Peter immediately remembered Ananias and then Sapphira falling dead at his feet. Because he knew, this false idea needed to die. If allowed to fester, it would corrupt the church. And so he rebuked Simon—who, by God's mercy isn't struck dead on the spot. “You're no believer, Simon. You're still stuck in the bitter poison and chains of unrighteousness.” Luke tells us that Simon asked them to pray for him so that he wouldn't fall under God's judgement. I have to wonder if they told him about Ananias and Sapphira and left him quaking in his boots. Luke doesn't tell us what happened to him, whether he eventually understood and actually believed the gospel or not. What Luke wants to stress here, what we shouldn't lose of, is that the Spirit is not under human control. The Holy Spirit isn't magic. Magic is the human attempt to manipulate God. Humans have been trying to figure out ways to do that ever since our fall. Magic treats God like a vending machine. Push B5 to get this or push D2 to get that. Say this spell, offer this sacrifice—follow the right formula and you can control the divine. The so-called “Prosperity Gospel” is a modern version of this. But you don't have to be into the Prosperity Gospel or the Word-Faith movement to be guilty of thinking you can control God. When we bargain with God, we're doing the same thing. We think that if we offer God this or that, we obligate him to give us something in return. Brothers and Sisters, God's been teaching his people from the beginning that he doesn't work this way. He's sovereign. He sends his Spirit as a mighty rushing wind and, as Jesus said to Nicodemus, “Those who are born of that Spirit are blown along with it.” Those who surrender themselves to Jesus and the Spirit are blown into purity, blown into holiness, blown into godliness, blown into ministry and blown into mission. That's what Luke shows us in Acts. Jesus purifies us, the Spirit fills, and in those acts God make us his living temple. A temple through which he will make himself known and through which he will eventually fill the earth with his presence. In this morning's Collect we asked the Lord to teach to us to ask for the things that please him. Brothers and Sisters, if we understand ourselves to be his temple, his working model of new creation in the midst of the old, I can hardly think of a better prayer. It's a prayer very much like “on earth as in heaven”. A prayer that sets aside our own agendas and ask for God to bring us into his. I'd like to close praying that Collect again. Let your merciful ears, O Lord, be open to the prayers of your humble servants; and, that we may obtain what we ask of you, teach us to ask for those things that please you, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Today on the podcast is Ty Cirino.Ty is the #2 returner in Oregon 5A cross country, out of Central High School in Independence, Oregon. With the graduation of Tayvon Kitchen and Josiah Tostenson this past spring, the door is open in Oregon high school XCTy Cirino is a possible heir to the throne.As a junior, Ty won the The Mook XC Invite at Alderbrook in a new course record of 14:43 (which was just recently broken by Kellen Williams in 14:28). Ty also finished 2nd at the Rose City Invitational in 14:35. After finishing 4th at Oregon 5A State Cross Country as a junior and placing 3rd in both the 1500 and 3K this past track season, many have been expecting Ty to rise to the occasion this cross-country season.But, it hasn't been without struggle. Despite a groundbreaking summer of training, Ty sustained a tiny flare-up that has temporarily sidelined him for a couple weeks to end his September. However, as we head into October, and as you will learn today, Ty believes that this setback could be his strength.Aside from a minor setback, Ty and I go in-depth on his thoughts on the competition in the northwest this cross-country season, as well as his thoughts on the change of the NXR location, why a state title would mean more than an NXN birth. We also discuss his preferences and insights tactical racing vs. front running and we run the gauntlet on the recruitment process.Ty definitely has a bright future. I think we all have to remember, that as you will here Ty say today, “championship season is all that matters”. People don't remember who sets a course record in September. But people do remember the clutch moments, whether that be winning a state title, winning NXR, or even winning a national title.It was a refreshing perspective to hear, and I hope you enjoy my conversation with Ty today.Please consider leaving a follow and a five-star review!I hope you enjoy this episode of The Sunday Shakeout!

The “Returner” phenomenon is a very real thing: people leave their small towns as young people and come back later when they're ready to settle down, and there is a huge opportunity for both the returners and the small towns they're coming back to–but we're not always open to these boomerangs. This episode is about inviting people back, creating spaces, and growing as communities so they everyone is thriving. We think you'll love it! About Jessica: Originally from Winner, SD (pop. 2,852), Jessica Meyers was raised in Winner and Vermillion, SD, and earned her bachelor's degree at South Dakota State University in Brookings. Jessica and her husband Matt followed the flight pattern of many young adults and left the small towns of SD for bigger cities. After 10 years of living in some of the largest cities in America, she now lives in Sioux Falls with her family. Pairing over 20 years of sales and recruiting experience, Jessica discovered a unique opportunity for the Midwest. She is co-founder and CEO of PorchLight, a talent recruitment firm that partners with rural communities to prepare for the 21st-century workforce and connect rural workers to employment opportunities. Jessica created the first-of-its-kind PorchLight Certification and created the platform where rural development and job opportunities connect. Personally, Jessica has been married for over 20 years to her high school sweetheart Matt, and they have three daughters, Eve, Grace, and Juliet, who live in Sioux Falls, SD. In this episode, we cover: What is a returner? A different approach to thinking about housing (hint: it's not just workforce housing we need to consider) Why “People don't want to work anymore” is a myth Why remote work *works* for small communities What every single one of us can do to support our community's small businesses Links + Resources Mentioned: PorchLight's Website: https://porchlight-services.com/ Small-Town Shout-Out! This shout-out was blatantly stolen from the webinar with Saveyour.town, and in the chat, Jamie Shanks from Glendive shared an idea inspired by a Reimaginig Rural Event: They've recently formed a group focused on action vs meetings, and they call themselves the “VigiPlantes.” Their efforts are centered around planting new ideas, community beautification, planting actual trees and plants, and sometimes doing things in the wee hours so people in their community wake up to a surprise. Can you even?! Snaps to Jamie, Glendive, and the VigiPlanties for this very stealable, very amazing idea. New Segment Alert!

We send out our deepest sympathies to area families that will be devastated by the American Airlines plane that crashed in DC when an Army helicopter got in its way. The flight originated in Wichita and, as we all view our part of the country as a region, we know this will impact thousands.
