Acts of the Holy Spirit
Author: Otu-amate
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781499668148
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
This intriguing book is about the history of the church from the day of Pentecost to the present. It thus covers a long span of time: over 2000 years; thus the entire history of the existence of the church. Yet it is not, by any means, superficial or cursory; for it focuses on what one would regard as the most significant events and changes in the history of the church, providing incisive interpretations of these events and changes.The author contends that the name of the book Acts of the Apostles in the Bible is a misnomer and that the acts recorded there and indeed, in the entire history of the church are acts of the Holy Spirit. This is a valuable book, clearly written with a clear explanation of events. The book ought to be read by all Christians as well as students of the history of the church. It is rewarding reading.

Reading Acts
Author: Joshua Jipp
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1498293034
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
The book of Acts tells the story of what happened after the death and resurrection of Jesus. The book is filled with adventure and entertainment as Acts narrates God's activity among his people and the world. In this book I explore one way of reading Acts that attends closely to the plotline of the book and seek to invite readers into the story that Acts tells. Along the way, I examine some of the most important themes of Acts, including divine activity, the extension of the gospel to surprising people in surprising ways, conflict and congruence between the gospel and the broader world, and the ongoing importance of Israel as God's people. While there are many excellent reasons to read Acts, I reflect too upon the theological and ethical vision of Acts for those who read this book as Christian Scripture.

Together for the World
Author: Wagenman, Michael R.
Publisher: Lexham Press
ISBN: 1577997204
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 90
Book Description
The disciples and early Christians faced doubt, opposition, and threats--just like many Christians do today. In Together with the World, Michael Wagenman shows how the book of Acts can help modern Christians respond to crisis and critique in our contemporary world. The book of Acts is about more than simply the beginning of church history. In Together for the World we find a group of disciples, empowered by the Holy Spirit, following God's call to spread the good news.
