Because He Lives (Part 2) Episode 2
August 6, 2019
Young men know their strength, older men know their weaknesses. When you discover strength that exceeds your own and power that comes from the Lord, you can either defer the glory to God and be thankful or you can steal that glory for yourself. Pastor Jeff Johnson shows how God used imperfect people like Peter and John in Acts 3 due to their willingness to completely defer to the Lord. And he elaborates on how God still does that today if we too will walk in humility. With more on this nn, let’s join Pastor Jeff in our study titled, “Because He Lives Part 2” for our time in Sound Doctrine.

It’s been said that it’s not how you start the Christian life, but how you end that life that matters most. Paul chastised the church in Galatia for trying to perfect themselves in the flesh after having begun in God’s Spirit. And today Pastor Jeff says that it is the overflow of continuing in God’s Spirit that is necessary in our lives in order for Him to work and move through us. As we begin a new study titled, “Because He Lives Part 2” Pastor Jeff helps us to see more of the working of God’s Spirit in and through the church that caused them to be effective for the Lord. With more on that, let’s join Pastor Jeff in Acts 3 for our time in Sound Doctrine.

How would you describe the lifestyle of the person whom Jesus uses in our world? What do they look like? What do they do on a regular basis? When it comes to finding such a person, we have to look no further than Jesus and the accounts we are given in the book of Acts. Pastor Jeff helps complete the picture by translating this ancient book with modern application. It’s an important reminder for maintaining an effective walk. We invite you to join us for our study titled, “Because He Lives” Part 1 as we glean more truths in our time in Sound Doctrine with Pastor Jeff in Acts 3

When a miracle working, almighty God does the impossible, what should the response of His people be? The reaction gives insight into where believer’s mind and heart actually dwell. To the Jews in the book of Acts, Peter addressed as those who should have known that God alone has the power to do the incredible. Our role is to trust in Him and wait upon how and when He wants to work. This serves as a good reminder to the believer who has simply relegated God as One who only worked in incredible ways in the past. And so join us in Acts 3 as we take in the message titled, “Because He Lives” Part 1 with Pastor Jeff in Sound Doctrine.

Sin brings sickness, sorrow, and death. And Jesus came to deliver us from a life that is dominated by sin. As we look at the picture of the lame man who was healed, Pastor Jeff uses him as an illustration of who the Lord doesn’t want us to be: one who simply ekes out an existence with no hope, and without God. As we learn lessons from this impactful study the Lord will help us also to be able to walk by the power of God as well. Join us in Acts 3 for our time in Sound Doctrine for our study titled, “Because He Lives” part 1 with Pastor Jeff Johnson.

Sin brings sickness and death. It produces calloused hearts and minds. It’s no wonder that in the picture of the lame man we are able to recognize a picture of our lives before Jesus Christ came in. And as we continue to look at the message from the life of the lame man, Pastor Jeff helps us to see how bad was our condition without Jesus. And the salvation God has brought us when we least expected it. With compelling scriptures and personal experience Pastor Jeff opens up the Word to see how Jesus is still able to do the same thing through us as He once did for us. Join us in Acts 3 for our study titled, “Rise up and Walk” part 2.

A miracle is by definition a suspension of the natural and physical laws around us. They are uncommon phenomena that God works at His discretion. Such was the case of the healing of the lame man in Acts 3. Two faithful followers of Jesus were used by God to get the attention of those who needed to hear the message of salvation. God wanted to take one miracle of physical healing and work other miracles of spiritual healing through salvation. Pastor Jeff helps us to see what God is did and what Jesus will do in the life that is yielded to Him. With more on our study titled, “Rise up and Walk Part 2” let’s join Pastor Jeff in our time in Sound Doctrine.

When it comes to healing, is God bound by a template that says only those who are demonstrating faith to be healed, will be healed? Or does God exercise His Sovereign will in our affairs as we invite Him to be our Lord? Pastor Jeff shares important principles from God’s Word to show how God isn’t restrained by a pattern, but He moves in what will work best for His glory and our good. He simply calls us to trust Him. We invite you to follow along in part 2 of our study titled, “Rise Up and Walk” for our time in Sound Doctrine, with Pastor Jeff Johnson.

What is a believer’s responsibility to the social gospel; that is the need to improve the social, moral, and economic conditions of our culture? Pastor Jeff reminds us that there is one side that is emphasized while many times the actual Gospel of Jesus Christ is abandone. He then helps us to see what is a proper Biblical balance in light of the social issues we confront. With more on this, let’s join Pastor Jeff in Acts 3 for our study titled, “Rise up and Walk, Pt 1” for our time in Sound Doctrine

The Bible is both a spiritual, and a very practical book. It outlines how we are to live as citizens on this earth and citizens of heaven as well. That’s why in our study today we are going to look at topics like prayer, how to respond to the homeless and those in need, and how to use our gifts. Pastor Jeff helps us to see the partnership of God initiating and us responding to His Holy Spirit in order to be used by Him. Stay tuned as Pastor Jeff shares on these important issues back then and now in Acts 3 for our study titled, “Rise up and Walk!”

Conspicuously absent in the church today is the appearance of miracles as we see in the book of Acts. Pastor Jeff gives both the cause and the reason for that phenomenon and shows what led to the miracle of the healing of the lame man in that first fellowship of believers. And he shows that as we seek to reclaim some of those areas that have been neglected in today’s church, we will then allow God to do what He wants to do. In this study that is both an observation and a sobering comparison, it causes us to ask the Lord to search our hearts today. With more on that, let’s join Pastor Jeff in Acts 3 on the study titled, “Rise Up and Walk.”
