274 - Relief To The Brethren

Overview - Relief To The Brethren. Acts 11:27-30. Our message today comprised of a few different ideas. 1) The specific offices of apostle, prophet, evangelist, etc. that God gave to His servants in the Bible, and that Christ gave to His 12 apostles. Does God still give these offices to people today? 2) The love that the outcast Hellenists show for those in the churches in Judea, including those that had previously been bigoted against them, when they came to Antioch, and would not give the message of Jesus Christ to them. How exactly do they show Christ’s love for those whom had previously been bigoted towards them? 3) Just how financially wealthy was the church in Jerusalem, and the churches of Judea, at this time? Many today think that the Christians in the Bible, including the apostles of Christ, and their churches, were very, very wealthy, as wealthy as Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were. But, is this what we find with the information that God provides us with, in the section of scripture we study today? I touch on these topics and more in this message titled, “Relief To The Brethren” today, so come and take a listen, and be encouraged, and edified in the Lord Jesus Christ. May the Lord bless you, as you diligently seek Him Pastor Ed
