What's in Your Bucket? (10.27.19)

Acts 1:6–9 (ESV): So when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” 7 He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” 9 And when he had said these things, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight   What’s in your _____________?   Acts 2:14–18 (ESV): 14 But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them: “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words. 15 For these people are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day. 16 But this is what was uttered through the prophet Joel: 17  “ ‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares,   that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh,   and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,   and your young men shall see visions,   and your old men shall dream dreams; 18  even on my male servants and female servants   in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they shall prophesy.   13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. 14 He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. 15 All that the Father has is mine; therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you. (Jn 16:13–15, ESV)   38 And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” (Ac 2:38–39, ESV)   5 and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.  (Ro 5:5, ESV)   11 If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you], he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you. (Ro 8:11, ESV)
