The Mission Advances
from Solid Rock Church Sermons Hosted by Jason Williams
In the sermon this past Sunday, we looked at the movement of the Gospel from Jerusalem to Samaria. Fueled by severe persecution, the church members from Jerusalem began to disperse throughout the region of Judea and Samaria. In Acts 8, we followed the story of Philip as he took the Gospel message to the Samaritans. Here, Philip encountered a dark and demonic culture steeped in magic. Through Philip’s proclamation of the Kingdom of God and the name of Jesus, many Samaritans became believers. The Holy Spirit was imparted to these believers after Peter and John arrived, drawing a significant distinction between the power of man through the magic of Simon and the power of God through the message of Philip.
