The Church Of The Living God P2            
…I will build my church…

The Message Of The Church Is To Affirm What God Has Done And Said
Acts 2:36-37  …let all Israel be assured of this: GOD HAS MADE THIS JESUS, Whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.”  When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”

Repentance And Baptism Is Crucial For The Promise Of God’s Forgiveness
Acts 2:38-39  Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off for all whom the Lord our God will call.”

Obedience To God Leads To Blessing From God
Acts 2:40-41  With many other words he warned them; he pleaded with them, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation!” Those who accepted his message were baptized and about three thousand were added to their number that day.

Devotion To Biblical Teaching, Fellowship And Prayer Leads To The Miraculous
Acts 2:42-43  They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles.

A Biblical Church Is Characterized By Generosity
Acts 2:44-45  All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need.

Regular Fellowship Is Necessary For Spiritual Health
Acts 2:46-47a  Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people…

The Result Is Growth From The Lord
Acts 2:47b  …the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.
