Bible Journey: Acts 2
2:1- Can the day of Pentecost still happen again? What will the church need to do to get there? Can we be united, connected? How does the church look like as a church in ONE ACCORD?
2:4- When you are filled with the Holy Spirit you cannot be the same. “Never the Same” Something that has been preached for about a month at the “FUSE”
2:8- With God all things are possible!
2:12- I think in our church there are several people in these same shoes, asking themselves “Watta? What is happening here?” but the mysteries of God were never meant to be confusing.
2:14- Going back to that phrase that P. Nick has been reiterating, “Never the Same!” Peter the one who denies Jesus lives out those 3 simple words. After the Holy Spirit joins him he is never the same, and displays an act of courageous living.
2:16-21- Peter protects himself with the Word of God. The bible literally says that the word of God is sharper than any two edged sword (Heb. 4:12), so what are you fighting with? Have you enough word inside of you to combat out in the battlefield?
2:22- The first word of this scripture shows Peters passion, “People...” As Christ followers one of our top passions need to be people, both unsaved and saved.
2:23- God has plans for our lives, in detail, long before we were even conceived. Want to know more about your own life, consider his ways. Because the more you find out who He is the more you find out who you are.
2:37- Change can’t happen until YOU want to change. As a Christian you can’t convict nobody, that’s the Holy Spirits job not yours.
2:41- Lord is it foolish to pray and ask for this many baptisms, well if it is or it isn’t I’m still going to pray that you may bring 3,000 people to know you and be baptized for you.
2:42- Discipleship consists of 4 areas: 1. Teaching- teaching sound doctrine of the word of God. 2. Sharing- sharing personal experiences both the good and the bad. 3. Breaking Bread- spending time whether it’s a one-on-one deal or with a group enjoying fellowship. 4. Praying Together- Knowing that someone is praying for me makes me feel a lot safer. There is power in numbers. Becoming partners in prayers brings a corporate anointing.
2:47a- If these new rising Christians were liked by ALL the people, why are some of today's Christians hated by the world and even their own church members?
2:47b- Lord here is another crazy prayer: Lord nothing is impossible in your eyes so I ask that you may add to the numbers of those who will be getting save here in San Jose, Milpitas, and Hawaii.
