Acts 1:1-11
Very exciting to know Luke's mind about the work of Jesus. The gospels began the work and now Acts continues to record His ongoing work. The story has no ending, He still is witnessing to the world about who He is. He brings you and me into His work, actually speaks of it as though it is Him doing it! That says allot about you and me.
Does our message today resemble theirs? They preached Jesus is risen! He's alive and with us right now, not a dead savior a living one! They preached the Kingdom is here, it's within you and this was their mission! He is a living risen King, reigning now in the hearts of all who come to know Him. They preached He is coming back any minute now and this fueld ther Motive for movong on. Not just academic understanding but a personal deep conviction. They moved out into the because they lived what they beleived, Do we?
Let's not get lost in side issues that aren't our focus like times and epochs. Jesus said somethings were ours to know others were not, you focus on what God has given you to do, be a good witness! Get out ther e and take the message to the whole world! The continuing saga of our Lord and Savior, king of all!
