A DANGEROUS CHURCH TRANSFORMS
1) THE ORDINARY INTO THE EXTRAORDINARY.

When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus.
Ordinary: idiotes (id-ee-o'-tace) – idiot, ignoramus.
God did extraordinary miracles through Paul, so that even handkerchiefs…that had touched him were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured…
• When is the last time you have believed God for something extraordinary?
2) CONSUMERS INTO CONTRIBUTERS.
• The church is not here for us. We are the church – and we are here for the world!

• When is the last time you have given of yourself sacrificially?

3) THE LIVING TO THE DEAD.
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me...
May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
• Are you dead yet?
All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need.
