Luke was a physician and close friend of the Apostle Paul who wrote the Gospel of Luke and the book of Acts. The book of Acts details the early Christian church following Jesus' ascension. It describes how the apostles performed signs and wonders and many people believed. However, this led the Jewish leaders to become jealous and imprison the apostles. An angel freed them and instructed them to continue preaching, which they did despite being flogged. The Pharisee Gamaliel advised leaving the apostles alone, saying their movement was of God and could not be stopped. The book of Acts illustrates the opposition and persecution faced by the early Christians but also their persistence in preaching the gospel.

_MINISTRY_Encounter #3_Presence of the Holy SpiritRohan Dredge
In this, the third installment of the ENCOUNTER Series Rohan takes you through how the Holy Spirit was present and worked through people in the Old Testament and then on into the New Testament. Notice the shift in the activity of the Holy Spirit as He comes upon people in the OT for specific tasks and is poured out on all people in the NT.
This message is thick with scriptures as we unpack explore the specific role of the Holy Spirit in the OT and the shift in dispensation in the NT.
Landing on the big idea that “awareness of his presence enables access to his power.” Take some time to become aware of the places in your life where you need the Holy Spirit to come upon you in fullness and power. Ask God to make that real to you right now.
Enjoy beginning to walk with and relate personally to the Holy Spirit as your guide and best friend.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

6. A medical doctor
A close friend of Apostle Paul and
companion in missions
7. He writes the book of Luke, which is about
the life and ministry of Jesus.
8. He writes the book of Acts, which is about
the life and ministry of Jesus’ people, the
first Christians, the early church, and their
explosion and expansion outside of
Jerusalem.

10. 10 My fellow prisoner Aristarchus sends you
his greetings, as does Mark, the cousin of
Barnabas.
11 Jesus, who is called Justus, also sends
greetings. These are the only Jews among
my co-workers for the kingdom of God, and
they have proved a comfort to me. ...

12. 1 Inasmuch as many have undertaken to
compile a narrative of the things that have
been accomplished among us,
2 just as those who from the beginning
were eyewitnesses and ministers of the
word have delivered them to us,
3 it seemed good to me also, having
followed all things closely for some time
past, to write an orderly account for you,
most excellent Theophilus,
LUKE1:1-3
13.
14. William Mitchell Ramsay
He was one of the leading archeologists in the
late 19th and early 20th century, and he had
doubts about Luke’s historical accuracy.
16. He devoted his life to unearthing the
ancient cities and documents of Asia
Minor. After a lifetime of study,
however, he concluded: 'Further study .
. .
17. showed that the book could bear the
most minute scrutiny as an authority
for the facts of the Aegean world, and
that it was written with such judgment,
skill, art and perception of truth as to
be a model of historical statement
18. (The Bearing of Recent Discovery, p.
85). On page 89 of the same book,
Ramsay accounted,
'I set out to look for truth on the
borderland where Greece and Asia
meet, and found it there [in Acts].
19. “You may press the
words of Luke in a
degree beyond any
other historian's and
they stand the keenest
scrutiny and the
hardest treatment...”
20.
21. 1 When the day of Pentecost arrived, they
were all together in one place.
2 And suddenly there came from heaven a
sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it
filled the entire house where they were
sitting.
ACTS2:1-2
22. The Move of the
Holy Spirit did not
stop upto this day.
THIS IS HIS DAY !
23.
24. 12 The apostles performed many signs and
wonders among the people. And all the
believers used to meet together in
Solomon’s Colonnade.
ACTS5:12
25.
26. 14 Nevertheless, more and more men
and women believed in the Lord and
were added to their number.
ACTS5:14-16
27. 15 As a result, people brought the sick
into the streets and laid them on beds
and mats so that at least Peter’s
shadow might fall on some of them as
he passed by. 16 Crowds gathered also
from the towns around Jerusalem,
bringing their sick and those
tormented by impure spirits, and all of
them were healed.
ACTS5:14-16
28.
29.
30.
31.
32.
33. 17 Then the high priest and all his
associates, who were members of the
party of the Sadducees, were filled
with jealousy. 18 They arrested the
apostles and put them in the public
jail.
ACTS5:17-18
34. When proud people see “losers in life”
picked by God and gives them His
power to touch people, they become
jealous and starts to oppose.
35.
36. 27 But God has chosen the foolish things of
the world to confound the wise; and God
has chosen the weak things of the world to
confound the things which are mighty;
28 and God has chosen the base things of
the world, and things which are despised,
and things which are not, in order to bring
to nothing things that are;
1COR1:27-29
37. 29 so that no flesh should glory in His
presence.
1COR1:27-29
38.
39. 19 But during the night an angel of the
Lord opened the doors of the jail and
brought them out.
ACTS5:19-23
40. 20 “Go, stand in the temple courts,” he said,
“and tell the people all about this new life.”
21 At daybreak they entered the temple
courts, as they had been told, and began to
teach the people. When the high priest and
his associates arrived, they called together
the Sanhedrin—the full assembly of the
elders of Israel—and sent to the jail for the
apostles.
ACTS5:19-23
41. 22 But on arriving at the jail, the officers did
not find them there. So they went back and
reported, 23 “We found the jail securely
locked, with the guards standing at the
doors; but when we opened them, we
found no one inside.”
ACTS5:19-23
42.
43. 24 On hearing this report, the captain of the
temple guard and the chief priests were at
a loss, wondering what this might lead to.
ACTS5:24-26
44. 25 Then someone came and said, “Look!
The men you put in jail are standing in the
temple courts teaching the people.” 26 At
that, the captain went with his officers and
brought the apostles. They did not use
force, because they feared that the
people would stone them.
ACTS5:24-26
45.
46. 27 The apostles were brought in and made
to appear before the Sanhedrin to be
questioned by the high priest.
28 “We gave you strict orders not to teach
in this name,” he said. “Yet you have filled
Jerusalem with your teaching and are
determined to make us guilty of this man’s
blood.”
ACTS5:27-28
47.
48. 29 Peter and the other apostles replied: “We
must obey God rather than human
beings! 30 The God of our ancestors raised
Jesus from the dead—whom you killed by
hanging him on a cross.
ACTS5:29-32
49. 31 God exalted him to his own right hand as
Prince and Savior that he might bring Israel
to repentance and forgive their sins. 32 We
are witnesses of these things, and so is the
Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those
who obey him.”
ACTS5:29-32
50.
51. 33 When they heard this, they were
furious and wanted to put them to death.
ACTS5:33
52.
53. 34 But a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a
teacher of the law, who was honored by all
the people, stood up in the Sanhedrin and
ordered that the men be put outside for a
little while.
ACTS5:34-39
54. 35 Then he addressed the Sanhedrin: “Men
of Israel, consider carefully what you intend
to do to these men. 36 Some time ago
Theudas appeared, claiming to be
somebody, and about four hundred men
rallied to him. He was killed, all his
followers were dispersed, and it all came to
nothing.
ACTS5:34-39
55. 37 After him, Judas the Galilean appeared in
the days of the census and led a band of
people in revolt. He too was killed, and all
his followers were scattered. 38 Therefore,
in the present case I advise you: Leave
these men alone! Let them go! For if their
purpose or activity is of human origin, it will
fail.
ACTS5:34-39
56. 39 But if it is from God, you will not be able
to stop these men; you will only find
yourselves fighting against God.”
ACTS5:34-39
57.
58. Act 22:3 I am a Jew, born and raised in
the city of Tarsus in Cilicia. I was a
student of Gamaliel and was taught to
follow every single law of our ancestors.
In fact, I was just as eager to obey God
as any of you are today.
- Apostle Paul
59.
60. 40 His speech persuaded them. They called
the apostles in and had them flogged. Then
they ordered them not to speak in the
name of Jesus, and let them go.
ACTS5:40-42
61. 41 The apostles left the Sanhedrin,
rejoicing because they had been counted
worthy of suffering disgrace for the
Name. 42 Day after day, in the temple
courts and from house to house, they never
stopped teaching and proclaiming the good
news that Jesus is the Messiah.
ACTS5:40-42
62. Do not resist persecution, but persist
preaching
DO NOT RESIST, PERSIST !
