Yet they assure us that man can, by courageous action, pull him- self out by his own bootstraps. Man has been desperately trying to do this. But the bootstraps have been breaking. The pit has been growing deeper. In the United States alone there are more than two million criminals. There are more than five million alco- holics. There are over 60,000 narcotics addicts. There are so many addicts of pornography that their obscene tastes support a $500-million-a-year porno- graphic industry. There are more than 400,000 divorces each year. There are hundreds of fathers who annually de- sert their families. "Man is responsible only to himself," the existentialists tell us.

  • Paul's Concluding Words Before King Agrippa
    Paul’s Concluding Words before King Agrippa So far in his defence before King Agrippa, the Apostle Paul has given his testimony of what happened to him until that day Jesus stopped him in his tracks on the road to Damascus. All of this was just background information, and didn’t really explain why Paul was seized by the Jews in the first place. Paul’s next few words briefly explain how he followed the leading of the Lord in his life from that day forward. Here is how he worded his defence: ACTS 26:19 Whereupon, C king Agrippa, I nas not disobedient unto the heavenly vision: 20 But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts ofjudaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance. 21 For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill ma 22 Having therefore obtained help of God, I con tinue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come: 23 That Christ should suffer; and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles. Let’s look at these words a little closer. In verse 19 Paul wants to make sure King Agrippa is listening to this next, and most important part of his testimony as it pertains to the charges brought against him, so Paul directly calls King Agrippa to attention by stating: Whereupon, C king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision:..

  • NEGLECTED CHARACTERS of the BIBLE: ANANIAS Sermon
    NEGLECTED CHARACTERS OF THE BIBLE: ANANIAS Sermon Preached by the Rev. Dr. Lindley G. DeGarmo Union Church of Pocantico Hills August 30, 2020 Psalm 145:10-18 Acts 9:1-20 I am continuing this week with my series of sermons on neglected characters of the Bible. It’s based on the work of Bishop William Willimon while he was Dean of the Chapel at Duke University, and focuses on a number of the “little people” of the Bible— folks who arguably play a minor role in the story of God, and who therefore rarely receive much pulpit time. Last week, we talked about Rahab the prostitute from Jericho, who helped fulfill God’s promise to settle the people of Israel in the land of Canaan. Today, we turn to the newer testament and a man: Ananias of Damascus. The call or conversion of Paul is a dramatic event, etched indelibly forever in the Christian consciousness. He was not always known as Paul. In the Jewish community he was known as Saul of Tarsus, a devout Pharisee, a scholar and zealous adherent of the Jewish law. And, he was one of the first and fiercest foes of the young Jesus movement. He was convinced that these Jesus-followers were a dangerous cult, renegades within Judaism, and that they would irreparably damage Judaism with their blasphemous innovation, their claims of Jesus as Messiah. And so, Saul persecuted Christians. He was there when Stephen became the first Christian martyr. He held the coats of the elders who stoned Stephen, and Luke tells us “Saul approved of their killing him.”1 Saul was on his way to Damascus with official letters from the Jewish authorities giving him power to seek out and destroy Christian groups there.

  • THE CESSATION of HEALING MIRACLES in PAUL's MINISTRY Τ Gary W
    BIBUOTHECA SACRA 155 (July-September 1998): 299-315 THE CESSATION OF HEALING MIRACLES IN PAUL'S MINISTRY τ Gary W. Derickson .^L. his article addresses the issue of the cessation of the exer­ cise of the gift of healing by the apostle Paul on the basis of the historical-theological evidence of the New Testament record. Three lines of evidence suggest that Paul was unable to perform healing miracles near the end of his ministry. The first line of evidence comes from a study of Pauline literature. The second line of evidence is from an evaluation of the record of the three men Paul failed to heal, their circumstances, and arguments that Paul would have healed them if he could. A third line of evidence stems from Hebrews 2:3-4. These three areas of evidence indi­ cate that miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit were no longer being distributed to the body of Christ by the end of the first century, but that the church was being given gifted individuals (Eph. 2:20; 4:11). Nonmiraculous spiritual gifts, of course, continued to be given to believers by the Holy Spirit. Further, even those who had previously had the ability to perform miracles were no longer able to exercise that gift as they had previously done. God's inter­ ventions through individuals gradually ceased in the waning years of the first century. MIRACLES AND MIRACLE WORKERS The range of opinion on the issue of miracle workers is spread between those who believe God continues to work miracles today in the same manner and number as in the first century1 and Gary W.

    A. J. B. Higgins, “The Preface to Luke and the Kerygma in Acts," W. Ward Gasque & Ralph P. Martin, eds., Apostolic History and the Gospel. Biblical and Historical Essays Presented to F.F. Bruce. Exeter: The Paternoster Press, 1970. Hbk. ISBN: 085364098X. pp.78-91. CHAPTER IV The Preface to Luke and the Kerygma in Acts A. J. B. Higgins [p.78] According to ancient tradition Luke both the Gospel and the Acts.1 While the identity of “Luke” is disputed, unity of authorship, including the “we” sections of Acts in their present form, is widely accepted on the basis of style and language.2 The Lukan writings also form a distinct theological unit within the New Testament, so that we can speak of the theology of Luke”.3 The most notable attempt to disprove unity of authorship on linguistic grounds was that of A. C. Clark,4 who tried to demonstrate that the linguistic differences between Luke and Acts are much more important than the resemblances; that they cannot be explained, as Hawkins thought, by the supposition that Acts was written considerably later than the gospel; and that they point, in fact, to different authors. But the complete unsoundness of Clark’s arguments was proved by W. L. Knox.5 The common authorship of the two Lukan writings may be regarded as established. I Does the Lukan preface (Luke 1:1-4) refer only to the gospel, or to both the gospel and Acts?6 The former view is supported by H. Conzelmann7 and E. Haenchen.8 [p.79] In 1953 R.

  • The Acts of the Non-Apostles Karen Kogler; July 1, 2006 Biblical Exegesis Class Concordia Univ., Irvine, CA; Dr
    Churches Equipping Saints for Service The Acts of the Non-apostles Karen Kogler; July 1, 2006 Biblical Exegesis class Concordia Univ., Irvine, CA; Dr. Michael Middendorf The Acts of the Apostles , it is often said, would be more appropriately titled The Acts of the Holy Spirit . The Holy Spirit is the main character, “an almost tangible force, visible if not in itself, certainly in its effects” ( New Intl Dictionary of NT Theology , p. 698) in this story of the movement of God’s word. Luke tells this story primarily through the ministries of Peter and Paul, yet a great many other believers also populate the pages of Acts. This paper will focus on the non-apostolic people--people other than the 12 apostles and Paul--in the first 15 chapters of Acts, through the pivotal Jerusalem Council. While looking at the work of the Holy Spirit through these people, implications for the Spirit’s work through the people of today’s church will also be suggested. Non-apostolic believers in Acts encompass a wide variety of individuals. The church as a whole is frequently mentioned, as in 2:44, “All the believers were together and had everything in common” and 12:5, “the church was earnestly praying.” Luke’s periodic progress reports often reference believers, as in 6:7, “The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly,” and 9:31, “the church . grew in numbers.” Many non-apostolic believers are named, including the lowly and women, such as Jesus’ mother Mary (1:14), the paralytic Aeneas (9:33-35), and the servant Rhoda (12:13-15).

  • Governor Felix's Treatment of Paul
    Governor Felix’s Treatment of Paul We have just looked at the doctrine of resurrection, which the Apostle Paul taught, and preached, and left us so much information. Three times in sermons, or speeches that he gave, the Apostle Paul wasn’t allowed to say any more after mentioning the resurrection of the dead. In ACTS 17 during his sermon on Mars hill, we read this concerning Paul preaching about Jesus: 31 ..whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he bath raised him from the dead 32 And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter. 33 So Paul departed from among them. We see here that the majority in Athens didn’t want to here the message about resurrected Jesus Christ. Again before the Sanhedrin council in ACTS 23:6 Paul’s final words he was allowed to speak unto them were: ...Men and brethren, 1 am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question. 7 And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees: and the multitude was divided. 8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both. 9 And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisee? part arose, and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God.
