Episode Synopsis

‘The Hand of the LORD’ was with them and great many people believed and were taught in Christian doctrine. Here in Antioch ‘Christianity’, at least in name, is born. The very idea that ‘The Supreme Being’, who cannot ignore sin, is willing to completely forgive it, was such good news to the heathen theist, they could not and did not resist. When the hand of the Lord accompanies the efforts of sincere believers, stuff happens, lives are changed and the Christian church thrives!  F. F. BruceImagine if you will.. a group of two or three of the unofficial missionaries in the streets of Antioch, with a small group gathered around them, listening to the gospel. Someone watching asks another bystander, “Who are these people?” The other answers, “O, these are the people who are always talking about Christos, the Christ-people, the Christians” .the Jesus. While it may have been meant as a term of derision, it really was a supreme compliment for the pagans to notice that these men were “Christ-men.”TEXT: ACTS 11:19-26SONGS: BUILD YOUR CHURCH, MAVERICK CITYNEW WINE, HILLSONG COVERTAKE ME AS I AM, CAINTHE JESUS WAY, PHIL WICKHAMI SPEAK JESUS, KINGS PORCH
