One Accord

The First Century Church Greenkill Conference Center Zolezzi, Steve 05/01/2016 05/01/2016

This teaching is about the importance of unity in light of Acts 2:42-47. Great things happen in the Bible when people are of one accord. The believers stood united in Acts and walked with God which took the move of God’s Word to different continents and languages. If people are not united on right doctrine and practice then the Word doesn’t move. To put out a campfire, one thing you can do is spread the coals; we don’t want to be a campfire that goes out because we are separated. We need to stay unified, and then people who are out in the cold will want to join the bonfire. We are likeminded on the Word according to the risen Christ, and we can’t let guilt separate us from God or the believers. Love is proactive and helps to prevent practical errors which can lead to doctrinal error. It keeps things simple when God and His Word are the priority. If the Word is going to move, it’s going to take someone to move it. God moved in Christ Jesus; now it’s our move.

Unity

Power in the People

The First Century Church Receiving the Holy Spirit and Manifestations Greenkill Conference Center Chatten, Bob 04/30/2016 04/30/2016

The teaching starts with how Jesus Christ was the one who taught the Word and operated the power of God in the Gospels. In Acts, a new administration begins where the believers continue the works of Jesus Christ and even go beyond what he could do by the operation of the power of the holy spirit in each born again believer. Signs, miracles, and wonders are explained as well as how they produce respect for God and a rising of believing that brings more signs, miracles, and wonders with the end result of the Word moving over the world.

The Benefits of Being Together and Giving

The First Century Church Prosperity Greenkill Conference Center Carr, Jesse 04/30/2016 04/30/2016

In this teaching, we look at the Church at Philippi as an example of how believers should live by being specifically concerned with the needs of other believers. The teacher compares the Philippians with the descriptions of believers in Acts, Chapters 2 and 4 looking at how they gave of their abundance to meet the needs of others. We also turn to 1 Thessalonians, Luke, and 2 Corinthians to see what God says about giving versus coveting and how other believers should be more important to us than any material possession.

Fellowship with God and Others

The First-Century Church Now

The First-Century Church Greenkill Conference Center Carr, Jerry 04/29/2016 04/29/2016

This teaching reviews how the first-century Church lived and how we are to follow that example as a template for our lives. We see how God provided gift ministries to the Church in order to help, serve, and love people. We are to learn and adhere to the doctrine of God’s Word, helping move it from generation to generation.
