God's Mighty Power to Save

September 29, 2013 Speaker: Missio Dei Church Series: Acts - The Church: Continuing What Jesus Began

Topic: New Testament Expository Passage: Acts 22:1–22:22

Week 53 of a 68 week series in which we will be exploring the book of Acts in a series titled "The Church: Continuing What Jesus Began." This series will not just be a travelogue through the early church's history. It will be a reminder for us of what Jesus did on the earth in his tough, compassionate, loving, healing deeds and what he said on the earth in his truthful, authoritative, convicting, comforting teaching was only the beginning of his doing and his teaching.

Theme: Paul’s testimony teaches us how God works mightily to save sinners.

Our latest installment of Missional Community study guides for the book of Acts can be found by clicking here. The questions for this coming Sunday include:

  1. Read aloud the above Scripture and talk about what stood out to you. This could be Scripture alone or it could something that the sermon pointed out to you from Sunday.

  2. Why is the idea that God elected us because He foresaw that we would choose Him opposed to Scripture?

  3. What are some practical applications of the doctrine of election? Are there any dangers in believing this doctrine?

  4. Some churches teach that baptism is essential for salvation. Is this a denial of the gospel? Why/why not?

  5. God’s purpose involves His being glorified among the nations. How can a Christian determine how he fits into this purpose?

  6. So, what are we, as individuals and as a Missional Community, going to do with this section of Scripture? What is God calling us to be? What is God calling us to do?
