Focusing on Jesus

Relentless: The Book of Acts

June 17, 2018 • Jimmy George

MAIN POINT:
"The foundation of our faith is the resurrected Jesus and nothing else."

CHALLENGE QUESTION:
Can you honestly say that you are relentlessly devoted to proclaiming the message of Jesus resurrection, or do you need to repent, re-clarify, and refocus your message?

KEY VERSE:
"For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures..." – 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (NIV)

SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:
Acts 2:41-42, Acts 2:24, Acts 2:32, Acts 3:15, Acts 4:33, 1 Corinthians 15:3-4, Acts 2:38

SERIES SUMMARY:
In the book of Acts in the Bible we learn that the early church - Jesus' first followers - was relentlessly devoted to what Jesus taught them to do. Because of their devotion, this group of ordinary people had a massive impact on the world in just one year. During this 12-part series, as we seek to be people who make a lasting impact on the world around us, we explore the key components of the first church and what it would like look if we lived with the same relentless devotion today.
