Christ Community Church January 11th, 2025 Rev. Bernie Diaz Church Life                                “Kingdoms in Conflict and Confrontation”                         Acts 19:21-41Spirit Led Persecution (vv.21-23) Satan Led Accusation (vv. 24-29) Ro. 1:22-23, 25 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.... 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, Jo. 15:18-19  18 “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 2 Pet. 2:1-3, 14-15a 1 But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of truth will be blasphemed. 3 And in their greed they will exploit you with false words. Their condemnation from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep... 14 They have eyes full of adultery,[a] insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children! 15 Forsaking the right way, they have gone astray.Spirit Blessed Resolution (vv. 30-41)
