20220715 Act 1:1-5 Heaven’s Grand Opening!

17 minutes Posted Sep 16, 2022 at 2:21 am.

(ESV) In the first book, O Theophilus, I have dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach,

Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile a narrative of the things that have been accomplished among us,

just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word have delivered them to us,

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,

that you may have certainty concerning the things you have been taught.

(ESV) until the day when he was taken up, after he had given commands through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.

(ESV) He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God.

-21 (ESV)

(ESV) And while staying with them he ordered them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, he said, “you heard from me;

Act

Dedication to Theophilus

(Theophilus means "lover of God," )

Luk

Jesus opened the door for our reconnection with God that was lost in the Garden of Eden…

Submission to the Holy Spirit IS the renewal Paul refers to in Romans…

Rom

1 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.

2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

———————————————————

Act

Luk

20 Being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, he answered them, “The kingdom of God is not coming in ways that can be observed,

21 nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or ‘There!’ for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.”

Act

Joh

16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever,

17 even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you.

Joh

26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

———————————————————

Act

Joh

7 Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.

Eph

13 In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.

God’s Spirit is our direct connection to God…

Rom

26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.

27 And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

Thru The Spirit, God enables me to live differently in this world.
