What Happened To The Kingdom?

Pentecost

"This is that!" Peter said. But what is "that?" Pentecost is like the "big bang" of the Church, if you'll pardon the analogy. It's a flash of light so brilliant that we can be blinded to things before it and around it. When Peter explained, "This is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel," he was helping us see the context, and he was setting expectations for what could happen next. Jim will pray, to open this sermon. It continues our investigation into What Happened to the Kingdom?

Pentecost 2

The Spirit didn't come to the Inner Court; He came to the Upper Room. In our quest to know "What Happened to the Kingdom?" we've come to Acts 2, where we'll find a key piece of evidence. Today Jim will talk about something that often gets overlooked about Pentecost: the location. It turns out that Jesus wasn't overstating it when He said, "Your house is left to you desolate." After the Ascension, God continued to bypass the center of Jewish worship and identity.

God's Passion For The World

God wasn't improvising at Pentecost! The Composer has written a grand symphony, and it's being played, note for note. If the audience in Jerusalem had been able to read the score - that is, the Scriptures - they would have been anticipating the next, dramatic movement. We'll see just how essential Pentecost was to the divine program in a new sermon called, God's Passion for the World. We'll be in Acts 2; Peter is quoting from Joel 2; and here's Jim to open with prayer.

Pentecost Did Not Establish The Kingdom

"Sit back and put your feet up!" When our work is done it's nice to grab a drink and relax in our favorite chair. It's a picture of rest, accomplishment, and satisfaction. That's an image that David gave us of the Messiah. He's seated in the place of honor, "taking it easy," as we might say, and now the Father has something to do: He's going to provide a footrest. Jim will get us started with prayer, then we'll hear Part 1 of his sermon, Pentecost Did Not Establish the Kingdom.

Giving, Growing, Healing

God gives better than we ask. Thanks for taking time on Independence Day to focus with us on a different political structure: the Kingdom of God. The lame beggar in Acts, chapter 3 was asking for money, hoping for money, expecting money. But he would get a far greater gift, "exceeding abundantly above all he could ask or think." True, he might have dared to ask for such a miracle from Jesus, but Jesus was dead. Wasn't He? Here's Jim to open his sermon, Giving, Growing, Healing.
