Update: 2017-07-26
Description
Larry Trotter, pastor, missionary, and evangelist continues to explore with the class the gospel from Acts. What is the message? What are the main points? What was preached? Consider Acts 9:20-22, “And immediately he proclaimed Jesus in the synagogues, saying, ‘He is the Son of God.’ And all who heard him were amazed and said, ‘Is not this the man who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called upon this name? And has he not come here for this purpose, to bring them bound before the chief priests?’ But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived in Damascus by proving that Jesus was the Christ.” Also explore Acts 10:34-43, Acts 13:16-18, 21-25, and Acts 13: 26-32. Consider Acts 14:14-17, “But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it, they tore their garments and rushed out into the crowd, crying out, ‘Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men, of like nature with you, and we bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to a living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them. In past generations he allowed all the nations to walk in their own ways. Yet he did not leave himself without witness, for he did good by giving you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons, satisfying your hearts with food and gladness.’” In Acts 16:31 we read, “And they said, ‘Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.’” In Acts 17:2-3 we read, “And Paul went in, as was his custom, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures, explaining and proving that it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead, and saying, ‘This Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ.’” Consider Acts 17:30-31 and Acts 26:22-23. Finally, we read in Acts 28:23 , “When they had appointed a day for him, they came to him at his lodging in greater numbers. From morning till evening he expounded to them, testifying to the kingdom of God and trying to convince them about Jesus both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets.”
