Allen Commentary on Acts

Allen Commentary on Acts is a very good commentary on Acts, probably the best expository and applicatory treatment of the book of Acts in common use today.

Mr. Allen’s work is a real contribution to our growing evangelical literature, and for practical purposes it is the best expository and applicatory treatment of the Acts with which I am acquainted. from BaptistBibleBeliever.com

1931

Covetousness is Idolatry an article explaining from the Bible viewpoint how covetousness is a religion unto itself, worshiping money instead of the true God of the Bible. This foundational understanding helps believers to identify the false prophet and reject and flee from their deceptive ministries.

Here is true Biblical exposition, put in simple and terse language; no long and complicated sentences that weary the mind by the laborious process of unraveling their grammatical structure. Yet there is depth; no more skimming of the surface. Yes, it is real interpretation without exhibiting the machinery of critical exegesis. Thus the book can be read for edification alike by the technical scholar and by the general reader.

Discerning a Wolf in Sheep's Clothing from a Man of God

Read this article by Pastor Cox on discerning a wolf pretending to be a man of God. Some of the sections are
1. What are we looking for?,
2. Christ was humble and meek and mild, 1Timothy Requirements,
3. Good signs (Committment and self-sacrifice, be a fruit tester, be skillful and truthful expositor of God's Word, a good father),
4. What are bad marks? (miracles and wonders, willful dictators, false prophets like mutton, hypocritical and Two-faced)

My Tracts on Church Attendance The first and foremost reason to go to church is because God commands us to do so (Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) 24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.).
Coming in behind that direct command of God, we go to church in order to worship God Himself. How? Simple. We hear the Word of God actually read and carefully explained, and then we assimilate those principles y exhortations into our personal lives, and that is worship. Without those elements, there is no worship, and there is no success at "going to church." It is fruitless spiritually, and without spiritual benefit to your life, you will get discouraged and stop going, stop being committed to it, and it will ruin your life because you are a hypocrite.
