hechos-2:8-jbs

I. INTRODUCTION A. In our last study, we made the statement that "baptism in the Holy Spirit" is subsequent to being born again. 1. Calvary believes that Scripture proves this to be so, and tonight I hope to give that Scriptural evidence 2. Since this is part 2 of "THE BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT", a... Read More

For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true, but into Heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us. Nor yet that He should offer Himself often, as the High Priest enters into the Holy Place every year with blood of others, for then ... Read More

This series of articles has been arguing that the root cause of the moral collapse in America and more specifically the church has been the loss of the fear of God. My primary appeal to this fact is that on the whole those calling themselves Christians are basically doing the same things in the same... Read More

In this chapter the apostle is referring to these tongues which shall cease; the Corinthians were vain of them; and he says they are not to use them save conditionally. Verse 3 is the way in which prophecy works, rather than a definition of prophecy. It is speaking unto men to edification, and exhor... Read More

Paul was at Ephesus, intending to go to Corinth, but they were in such a bad state there that he could not go, but he wrote a letter, and then went up from Ephesus to Troas, in hope to meet Titus with an answer to his letter.

Chapter 5:1-11 gave us the peace, present grace, and hope, which Christ's dying for our sins gave us, and what God is to us in and by it. This chapter gives our state and place before Hi...

Acts 1 We shall find that "The Acts" follows Luke's Gospel: it speaks of a "former treatise," which is the Gospel, but it follows it in its tone and character. Is the style of the Greek the same? Yes, there is no question with anyone that it came from Luke's pen. The only thing, and an astonishing t... Read More

100 Acts 3 - 17 What is striking here is that, after the setting up, in a sense, of the church, and saying "Save yourselves from this untoward generation," Peter then addresses himself to Israel as such, and tells them "Repent ye, therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out," not ...

These three great feasts of which we read here were the feasts of gathering "in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose to place his name in." All the males were to go up there; all the people were to be gathered up round the Lord. There was the Passover, the Feast of Pentecost, and the Feast ... Read More
