All Nations Presbyterian Church: Afternoon Sermon Series

Last Sunday afternoon, we resumed our sermon series in the book of Acts together. We saw that Acts is Volume #2 in Luke’s two-volume history of Jesus Christ. Volume #1, the gospel according to Luke, focuses on what Jesus began to do and teach, especially showing us that the Lord Jesus Christ lived and died and rose again to save us from our sins. Volume #2, the book of Acts, focuses on what the risen Lord Jesus Christ continues to do and teach from His throne in heaven. Although Jesus is seated in heaven, the book of Acts reminds us that He is still at work in this world, building His church and spreading His word by the power of His Spirit. With this in mind, Acts 11 especially shows us that Jesus is building His church among all nations—Jews and Gentiles alike. This week, take some time to thank God that Jesus is seated on the throne and still at work in our lives and in this world. Pray that King Jesus would continue to spread the waves of the gospel among all nations, here in Perth and to the ends of the earth.
