Come and See
Author: Todd Wagner
Publisher: David C Cook
ISBN: 1434711145
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
Come and See what? LIFE as God intended irresistibly revealed today in a way that is every bit as awe-inspiring and life-changing as when Jesus Himself walked the earth. Todd Wagner invites readers to experience the adventure, goodness, and fullness of life that God has intended for humankind from the beginning of time and especially today through His provision through His people. Weekly meetings of mostly bored adults who regularly attend services have nothing to do with God’s vision for His people. Wagner paints the picture of a perfect Father’s intention to bring His people into an adventurous life full of authentic relationships, powerful transformation, and seemingly impossible significance and meaning.

The Book of Acts
Author: Bob Emery
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780997644432
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The Book of Acts gives us a basic understanding of the story of the first-century Church from 30 AD (Pentecost) up until Paul's first imprisonment in Rome, which lasted from 61 AD to 63 AD. Luke's account in Acts ends when Paul is still under house arrest. But it only gives us a skeletal understanding of the story, not the full picture.By combining what we find Acts with details found in the rest of the New Testament letters, we can gain a wealth of information and revelation about what Jesus continued to do and teach through his apostles and prophets. But all these details are a challenge to sort out, and without a timeline to put the people and events in context, it is still difficult to discern the full picture. Where in our Bibles are we given a summary about what specifically transpired during that period from 63 AD, when the Book of Acts ends, through 70 AD, during which time the rest of the New Testament epistles were written? When precisely was each written? From where were they written? What circumstances and events were taking place within secular history and circumstantially within the churches that motivated them to be written? Where do we find that history, or that story, clearly laid out for us as we study our New Testaments? The answer is, we don't!Piecing together the story of the early Church is much like putting together a puzzle. Understanding the timeline is critical. It's like finding the corner and edge pieces of a puzzle around which the rest of the puzzle all falls into place. Having a timeline will guide you into a fuller understanding of the real story of the New Testament Church.
