Acts of the Apostles (Page 13)
The Coming of the Spirit
Acts 2:1-13 When the Spirit came upon the disciples, it was not something the Lord wanted to keep a secret. He came on Pentecost, when Jews from the entire known world were in Jerusalem, and came in such a way that His coming would not go unnoticed.
The Last Days
Acts 2:14-21 Peter now interprets the outpouring of the Spirit which took place. We examine: * Paul’s defense of the disciples’ conduct * His confirmation that the event signals the start of the last days
The Upper Room
Acts 1:12-14 Having witnessed the ascension of Christ, we study the reaction of the disciples. We see: * Their immediate obedience in returning to Jerusalem to wait for what had been promised. * What they did in Jerusalem while they waited
Let Another Take His Office
Acts 1:15-26 As the disciples waited and prayed for the promised Holy Spirit, Peter realizes from Scripture that a replacement for Judas must be appointed.
Wait for the Father’s Promise
Acts 1:1-5 In the book of Acts, we have an account of the life of the early church. In these early verses, Luke sets the scene and explains what the book will cover.
Christ’s Kingdom Strategy
Acts 1:6-11 Luke continues to set the scene for the remainder of this book. Here, he defines clearly the work that Christ intends to do on Earth through His Church – which is all related to His Kingdom.
