I am finishing this subject about the early church accepting the Gentiles. I am reading an entire chapter of my new book shortly coming out called, "The Great Transition" This chapter deals with the Jerusalem council in Acts 15
The inclusion of the Gentiles into the family of God starting rubbing the Jewish believers the wrong way. Why was that? This episode explores who gets to be in God's family.
We go back to Ezekiel on this program to show the life of God flowing from the temple of God. We overlay this powerful imagery over the Book of Acts and the people who were walking out these prophecies.
This episode shows again the parallel between Ezekiel and Acts. It is fascinating to see this. Ezekiel mirrors perfectly to the Book of Acts. On this one I show how differently God dealt with the Gog of the Old covenant and the Gog of the New Covenant.
We are going further into this teaching from the book of Ezekiel and how it mirrors the book of Acts. This shows the introduction of the New Covenant, The Baptism of the Holy Ghost, and the worldwide revival. Buckle up!
We are up to chapters 8-10 which shows the expansion of the early church. Jesus said the Kingdom of God was like a mustard seed. It starts out small but when it is grown it becomes a mighty tree filled with birds in its branches. This typifies the early church. They started small but ended up all over the world even up until today. Go with me on this journey!
I wanted to take a program to catch everyone up on where we are in this series. There has been so much revealed and I don't want you to lose it. The next several programs are challenging and you need this foundation.
The only way God could legally offer a New Covenant was to completely fulfill the Old Covenant. One of the most powerful promises in the Old Covenant was that Israel would be reunited. It would no longer have a Southern Kingdom (Jerusalem) and a Northern Kingdom (Samaria) This program explains all of this and how God did Just that!
Have you ever wondered why Jesus specifically mentioned Samaria when He sent His apostles to the world. Why was it so important that they go to Samaria BEFORE the went to the world? Well there was a very good reason. Listen and find out!
