Dec 12_2012 Acts 17




Dear Saints,


Today we prayerfully read, Acts 17. Paul preaching and teaching at Thessalonica. The Bereans are more serious than those at Thessalonica. Paul is always preaching and teaching about Jesus, Athens is no exception. He preaches there using their religious superstition to teach them about Jesus. The scornful conduct of the Athenians. “32 Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked. But others said, “We will hear you again about this.” 33 So Paul went out from their midst. 34 But some men joined him and believed, among whom also were Dionysius the Areopagite and a woman named Damaris and others with them.” Acts 17:32-34, English Standard Version (ESV). Wherever Paul went he was telling people to believe in Jesus. Why would he do that? I’d say that the love of Jesus and the forgiveness of sin are the best part of life. “But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.” Galatians 4:4-5 ESV. Jesus gives every believer the best life they can have. That includes our adoption into the family of God. Keep the first thing first, that is salvation paid for, in full by our Lord Jesus Christ. How can anyone accept this gift without sharing it?

Dec 11_2012 Acts 16





Dear Saints,


Today we prayerfully read, Acts 16. Timothy a young sincere man of mixed birth (Greek and Jew) impressed Paul. So Paul took Timothy to be his assistant. Following the leading of the Holy Spirit Paul proceeds to Macedonia. A devout lady named Lydia accepted Jesus and was baptized and invites the disciples to her home. Paul casts an evil spirit of divination out of a young slave girl. Her owners have Paul and Silas scourged and imprisoned. There was an earthquake and the prison was opened, God had Paul and Silas stay rather than to escape This impressed, the jailer at Philippi and he accepted Jesus. Paul and Silas released with apologies. They visited Lydia and the brothers, they encouraged them before leaving. “30 Then he brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 31 And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.” 32 And they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all who were in his house. 33 And he took them the same hour of the night and washed their wounds; and he was baptized at once, he and all his family. 34 Then he brought them up into his house and set food before them. And he rejoiced along with his entire household that he had believed in God.” Acts 15:36-41, English Standard Version (ESV).When the jailor asked what he had to do to be saved, they simply told him to believe in Jesus. That’s all we have to tell sinners when they ask us what they need to be saved. “Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” Isaiah 7:14 ESV. Think of this as Jesus said “a fisher of men.” Fish can’t be cleaned prior to being caught. Let’s keep the first thing first, that is salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. When asked what to do to get this salvation, simply say believe in the Lord Jesus. No man comes to our Father God, by any other name.
