Well if you will turn over to the 1st chapter of the book of Acts, we want to begin with what it says and what it doesn't say. The Acts of the apostles' "The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach," so of course he wrote the book of Luke, and of c ...

Those people are supposed to be serving the Church downwards, that's their job, their job relates to the people, the membership to the Church for whatever, for physical or for ...
Well the other way is to save a Nazarene and the Paulicians and Waldensians where your line of ancestry going back to the book of Acts, the only trouble is what was a Nazarene?

There was a certain man called Simon which before time in the same cities used sorcery and bewitched the people of Samaria. Now, apparently this man convinced Philip that he was sincere, maybe he was, there's no way of really knowing whether he was or wasn't. If he was then he's through foreve ...
So Cornelius sees in a vision, evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, saying to him, Cornelius. And when he looked on him, he was afraid. So every time you see a Christian or a man of God in the Bible meets up with a Spirit Being he is always struck with awe and ...
Now notice all of a sudden how Barnabas plays second fiddle, he's the best 2nd fiddle player I've read of in the Bible. Well of course not except Jesus. When Paul and his company, boy that's all Barnabas is a part of Paul's company. You know maybe if we were in Barnabas's shoes we'd be s ...
And after they had held their peace, after they keep silence, James answered, saying, men, brethren, that's no crowd, that's just the same people above, hearken, hear, same as gave audience in verse 12, the same as here back in verses 7 and 24. So it doesn't carry any more weight in those word ...
Psalms 74 verse 17; you might want to jot in your margin there. It's another verse that reminds you of the same thing; Psalms 74 verse 17 (Psalms 74:17). "Thou hast set all the borders of the earth:", and you know God really made the Blacks where they were best to dwell on the rich conti ...

Now that's what we're expecting next over here in Europe, is that there will be a union of ten nations going together in Europe and the Pope at Rome will sit on top of the whole heap. There will be one man over all the governments. There will be a King (or, I don't know whether you will call h ...
Now, you can't read the Bible straight through from beginning to end. There is a story flow in the Bible in a way. It begins with the creation of man, and it does show how man was offered life and did not choose it, rather chose to have his own way. Because we can only have life God's way, in a ...
We want to cover the subject of Church eras this evening. First I might make a few qualifying statements as far as why would I be presuming to go through the subject of Church eras.

Now God created the whole universe BY Jesus Christ, who was the Workman. But instead of electricity and tools, Christ used the Holy Spirit; and He spake, and it was done. When Christ spoke, the Holy Spirit did it immediately; and that's the way all creation came about. Now then, go back and let yo ...
We had finished the Books of Romans and Galatians and they have been recorded so that they could go out to various Churches and I thought it would be good if we would start now at this time, in the Book of Corinthians; starting I Corinthians.
