Acts 1:9 - 1:26
ActsSteve Gregg
In "Acts 1:9 - 1:26," Steve Gregg explores the concepts of Jesus' ascension, second coming, and the replacement of Judas among the apostles. He notes that the Holy Spirit empowers Christians to spread the Gospel and that the Roman Catholic Church's view of Peter as the foundation of the Church is not based on Jesus' words. The book of Acts offers insight into the early church's mentality, which was later influenced by human traditions. The goal is to return to the practices of the apostles and the early church rather than relying on traditional beliefs.
