Eastern Heights Christian Church
In our "Manifesto" series, we will be studying the book of Acts verse by verse as we discover who we are, what God desires us to be about, how the Holy Spirit works, and how we were all called to be a part of what God has been doing for the last 2000+ years.
Acts 13:13-23 NIV
1. ALL SCRIPTURE points to Jesus!
Acts 13:24-37 NIV
2. Jesus is the fulfillment of PROPHECY.
“If Jesus was the Messiah, predicted by the O.T. Scriptures, and if He fulfilled them when He came, then how did the JEWS MISS HIM?”
Acts 13:38-52 NIV
3. Jesus is the full expression of GOD’S MERCY.
The difference between the Law and Jesus:
Law: The law EXPOSED your sin and CONDEMNED sinners
Jesus: Jesus JUSTIFIES sinners as if they’d NEVER sinned.
Note: God didn’t let anybody go here. He didn’t let anybody OFF FOR THEIR SIN.
JESUS took your PUNISHMENT upon Himself, for your benefit.
