The Apostle Paul has been arrested and has been tried three times but the Jews who accused him could not prove any of their accusations against the apostle. Thwarting the Jews plan to kill Paul, the apostle, as a Roman citizen, appeals to Caesar. The last two chapters of the Book of Acts depict Paul's journey to Rome. A Journey fraught with much harm but Paul, and all those that sailed with him, are delivered by the Angel of the Lord. And God will deliver us from every evil if we will trust in Jesus and not be afraid. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/

Acts 14 concerns Paul's First Missionary Journey and Acts 15 covers the First Council in Jerusalem concerning the Gentiles coming to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ without the need to be circumcised first.

These chapters chronicle the martyrdom of James, the brother of John; the arrest and miraculous deliverance of the Apostle Peter and the sending forth of Barnabas and Saul into the Mission field where they preach the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ; his death, burial and resurrection.

In this session of the Wonderful Words of Life, we will look into Acts Chapters 9 and 10 to study the early lives of two of the greatest men in the Church, namely Saul of Tarsus, who later came to be known as the Apostle Paul, and the Apostle Peter. We thank God how He worked through these two men to bring the gospel to the entire world and through their example of boldness and consecration we can learn from these two what God can do through all of us if we will follow Him. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/
We are looking at Acts Chapters 7 and 8. Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Ghost pays the ultimate price for his testimony of the Lord Jesus. He compares the unbelief and rebellion of the Jews against Moses as an example of the unbelief of the Jews concerning Jesus Christ. At the end of Stephen's message the Jews were "cut to the heart".We'll see the Jews response to the preaching of Stephen was opposite that of the response the Jews reaction after Peter preached on the Day of Pentecost. What is your reaction when you hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ preached? +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/
In Acts Chapters 5 and 6 we see the tremendous Holy Spirit revival continue to break out upon the people of Jerusalem with many of them coming to the Lord. In the midst of this revival the devil deludes a husband and wife to attempt to sow sin and wickedness into the midst of what the Holy Spirit was doing.Judged of God, both died immediately and the mighty revival continued. We will also look at how government in the church administered by the Holy Spirit will cause the church to grow and flourish. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/

As in the old hymn that says, “let me more of their beauty see,” the wonderful words of life grant life from God unto us all.
Do you know where you will spend eternity? The proof of your eternal destiny is in the Word of God. John has left us many proofs of the resurrection of Jesus and other scriptures give us assurance of eternal life, but this assurance only becomes present in our lives through faith in Jesus Christ. Have you made Jesus your Savior? If you haven't, what are you waiting for? Receive salvation through Christ today, don't wait - do it now. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/
This session covers the Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ we find in Matthew Chapter 28. Along with this chapter I provide 10 Proofs of the Resurrection of Jesus that are found in the New Testament. Christ Is Risen Indeed! Jesus was put to death by the hands of wicked men but raised again to life, God vindicating His Son for the work he did on the Cross paying the penalty and ransom for the sin of men. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/
The Crucifixion of Jesus Christ is the culmination of the ministry of Jesus. The Cross is the reason He was born into this world. And yet, so many in the world do not spend a moment contemplating what the Lord Jesus was willing to endure in order to bring us to God. Matthew Chapter 27 speaks to men of the Cross and Crucifixion of Christ. There are no earthly words of man's wisdom sufficient that be added to the record of the death of the Spotless Son of God. I pray for everyone within the sound of this broadcast will take the time to listen and contemplate the price God was willing to give to reconcile men to God. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/
Are you watchful for the Lord's coming and are you prepared? Many who call themselves believers are not and the day of the Lord's coming will catch them unprepared. This program forms the conclusion of the Olivet Discourse of Jesus Christ which he gave to the disciples on the Mount of Olives the Tuesday before his arrest and trial and forms what the end result will be for those who look for the Lord's coming versus those who are not. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/

We continue our study of the Olivet Discourse. Jesus is answering three questions posed to him on Mt. Olivet Tuesday evening of Passion Week. What Jesus said was relevant to the Jews within a generation of the discourse and relevant to us today who are awaiting the Rapture of the Church.

Why does it seem that so many churches lack spiritual power and do not have enough strength to resist all of the plots, schemes and devices of the enemy? And why is it that Christian believers have become weak in their faith and are not able to resist the tests, trials and temptations that accompany life? The lack of prayer is the answer. Prayer in God stirs the Christian and the Church, and motivates them to do great things for God. A prayerless Christian and a prayerless Church is sin! In Luke Chapter 11:1-8, Jesus shows the believer and the Church what it will take to be victorious over the world, the flesh and the devil. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/

All true believers are blessed with faithful Abraham through the merits of Jesus Christ. It is Christ who has done for us what the Law of Moses could not do, and that is to present every born again believer perfect In Christ Jesus.

In God "covenanting" Himself with men, obligated Himself to men, and men, through faith obligated themselves to God. The biblical example of this is in the life of Abram, who later had his name changed to Abraham. Today, through the element of faith, men enter into an everlasting covenant with God through the blood of Jesus Christ that was shed on Calvary. All the benefits of this covenant are realized through Faith. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/
Is it a hard thing for the Lord God to take ordinary people to work through to make something great happen that will bless the entire world? Nothing is too hard for God (Gen. 18:14). Whatever promise the Lord God has made concerning you and me He will fulfil it because we are in covenant with Him through faith in the precious blood of Jesus. It is faith in him and in the work done in redemption that makes the promises of God real to us who believe. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/
Was God working through His covenant He cut with Abraham, Moses and King David in the lives of Zacharias and Elizabeth? The realities of the Covenants of God are at work in the Christmas story of this righteous couple. What God did for them in blessing them and rewarding them for their faithfulness concerning God's covenant with the people of Israel, God will do also for all those who are in covenant with Him through the blood of the everlasting covenant made sure through the merits of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, as long as we "walk by faith, and not by sight". +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/
Does God arbitrarily move in men's lives, or is there a plan and purpose behind what God does? "Everything" God does is based upon a covenant(s) He has made with men, tribes or nations. Elizabeth and Mary were recipients of the covenant God made with Abraham hundreds of years before them. And God wants to bless you through the covenant He has made through Jesus Christ, His Son. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/
All of us should be thankful people for all the Lord has granted unto us through His goodness. The Psalmist declares God's goodness and His faithfulness towards us.

Are you a thankful person? The Bible has much to say about being thankful. Every true believer in Christ Jesus has been granted a new nature through the faith in the merits of the blood of Jesus Christ that he shed on Calvary's Cross. Paul writes a lot about what the New creation is and how it is to act in relation to the world and toward fellow believers.

The Prophet Isaiah speaks to us of both "The Tragedy and the Triumph of the Cross". What we enjoy today came to us at someone else's cost. The blessing of Eternal Life that believers enjoy today came at the cost of Christ's life. Those who have never asked Christ to be their Savior and Lord are living the tragedy side of the cross.

Israel, through its long history, has been a nation in crises. From the times of the Roman domination of the tiny nation of Israel until present, Israel has suffered. Many in the denominational churches think God has abandoned Israel and permanently cast him out of his presence, but the Apostle Paul, who was a Jew, said absolutely "No". God has not cast away his people forever. It is through Christ the Jews are being saved individually and His coming and future return to earth will save Israel as a nation and preserve him throughout the Millennium and Israel will be glorified throughout eternity. +++++++ You can find more information on my website: https://pastorjohndunning.com/ You can hear my personal testimony on this website: https://www.ifyouonlyknew.life/
