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. Acts begins where the Gospel of Luke ends, with the ascension of Christ. It is a history of the church of Christ in its infancy, showing God’s constant care and special providence for it. In these first verses five important lessons are set before us.

Ministerial Requirement Not Covetous is a short article about why ministers of God are not to be covetous, or interested so much in the things of this world. Their interest in riches and power contaminates whatever good that can possibly do for God. theologicalsystems.com/false-prophet-teacher/ministerial-requirement-not-covetous

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.
