The book of Acts shows us the spreading of the church for the enlargement of Christ on earth, and at the same time it shatters our natural concepts, it shows God’s sovereignty, and the blending of all races and kinds of people in the church, the Lord’s testimony. The basic principle of the church is […]
The Lord’s Way and Means of Spreading the Church Shatters our Natural Concepts
Preaching the Gospel of Christ as the Stone-Savior for the Church as God’s Building
In Acts 4:10-12 Peter proclaimed Christ as the Stone-Savior; we need to preach the gospel of Christ as the Stone-Savior for God’s building.
