Spread The News .. 11/25/2012

Sunday School Lesson for 11/25/2012. Unit III. Where Does Faith Take Us? Acts 28:23-31 ............................ First let's go back to October 28, 2012 Sunday School Lesson. Acts 8:26,29 where Philip (deacon/evangelist) was guided by the Holy Spirit to share the good news with a total stranger. I would strongly recommend allowing the Holy Spirit to guide you when going places and approaching strangers. .............. Spread the News Correctly - Acts 28:23-24 ....................... Verse 23 - Scripture, Promulgation of Scripture, Instruction in Scripture (Promulgation - to make known, proclaim, to make clear)................ Verse 24 - The Hebrews, Labors Among the Jews in Other Places, Rome ........ Paul's method of teaching was via of explanation. As with Paul "some believed and some believed not the teaching/message that he shared." ............... Spread the News Purposefully - Acts 28:25-27 ....................... Verses 25, 26, 27 - The Hebrews, The Jews Given Up, By The Apostles .......... There were some Jews who did believe the Gospel, but there were more that rejected the Gospel based on Isaiah's prophecy. ...................... Spread the News Faithfully - Acts 28:28-31 ....................... Verses 28, 29 - The Hebrews, The Jews Given Up, By The Apostles ........... Verses 30, 31 - Sacred Persons and Offices, Of General Ministry In General, Self-Support ....................... Paul shared with the Jews "the salvation of God" included a ministry to the "Gentiles, and that they would listen" to the Gospel. ..................... Paul was in Rome for two (2) whole years. ....................... Christians should use Scripture when sharing with others about the knowledge of Jesus Christ. Some will not be saved no matter what we do to share/explain the Gospel.
