Even Greater Things
“You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8
Jesus promised his disciples that if they had faith in him, they would not only do what he had been doing, but they would do “even greater things” (John 14:11 – 14, NIV). And that is exactly what happened. In the years following Jesus’ resurrection, the disciples saw miraculous transformations in the lives of those around them and miraculous multiplication in the sheer number of followers. These transformations and this multiplication are all chronicled in the book of Acts.
Acts provides an invaluable and inspirational account of the spread of Christianity following the resurrection of Jesus. It reveals what life in Jesus’ church was really like way back in the beginning – the people, passions, purposes, problems and priorities. Thus it provides practical vision to help each of us individually and all of us collectively, to understand more of what God expects in Jesus’ church today.
For the next several weeks we will be studying the book of Acts. On Sunday, January 24, John Lusk began with an introduction and overview of the book of Acts. Following is an outline of our study in Acts:
Sunday, January 31 - Acts 1:1 – 6:7 “The Birth of the Early Church”
Sunday, February 7 - Acts 6:8 – 9:31 “Persecution and Expansion to Samaria”
Sunday, February 14 - Acts 9:32 – 12:24 “The Gospel Spreads to the Gentiles”
Sunday, February 21 - Acts 12:25 – 19:20 “From Antioch to the Aegean Shores”
Sunday, February 28 - Acts 19:21 – 28:31 “Paul’s Journey to Rome”
