22.07.19 “Global Jesus” (Acts 10:44-48)

 

Would you consider yourself to be a spontaneous person, or one who likes things well planned in advance and everything happening according to plan? Have you noticed God most often does not do miraculous things in a well-planned, orderly fashion? Have you noticed God's miracles often appear to us to be unexpected?  Let's rejoin Peter who is standing in the middle of a totally unexpected miracle. Remember yesterday I left you with Peter, a Jewish apostle of Jesus, standing in the home of a Gentile, Roman centurion soldier, surrounded by other Gentiles. Peter had just explained to them how far out of his comfort zone he felt and how contrary this was to all he had been taught since he was a young Jewish boy.  But then Peter explained about Jesus and how Forgiveness from God for our sins is ONLY found in Jesus. The people were stunned... was Peter actually saying Jesus died on the cross for God's forgiveness of Gentile sins?  (Click here to see full text, images and links)       Today's Scripture is Acts 10:44-48. Choose below to read or listen.​​ Pastor Doug Anderson    262.441.8785   “Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, with our eyes fixed on Jesus…” (Heb. 12:1,2) Have a comment or question about today’s chapter? I’m ready to hear from you, contact me here.
