Fortner Discovering Christ in Acts

01. ‘Ye shall be witnesses unto me’
Act 1:1-8

The book of Acts is an inspired history of the apostolic ministry of the early church, covering a period of thirty to thirty-five years. The central theme throughout the book is the ascension and lordship of Jesus Christ. It was written by Luke, who was also the author of the gospel narrative bearing his name.

In these first verses five important lessons are set before us.

The class, Advanced Bible Searches NEAR shows you how to use the search NEAR function in theWord. This function will allow searching for situations where the word "Son" "Christ" are within so many words or verses of each other, but not necessarily next to each other. This is a very powerful function that is totally lacking in other Bible programs. You "loosely" search for two words or phrases that are just "near each other."
