Exposition Of Acts

Summary

The sermon explores the Book of Acts as a crucial transitional text in the New Testament, highlighting its role in bridging the Jewish ministry of Jesus and the Gentile mission of Paul. It emphasizes that Acts is not primarily written to establish churches as understood today but records the spread of the gospel from Jerusalem to Rome. The preacher clarifies misconceptions about Pentecost, asserting the church existed before that event and differentiates between the experiences of Jewish and Gentile believers in Acts. The sermon also discusses the opposition faced by early Christians from Jewish and Roman powers and the guidance of the Holy Spirit in the church's mission.
