Dear Friends in Christ,

So onto our study of Acts using Revolutionary Bible Study.

Edwards Key points -

  • Year 30 CE/a.d

  • March 30 - April 4 - Passion of the Christ

  • April 7 - Resurrection

  • May 29 - Coming of Holy Spirit and the founding of Church

  • May 30 - Crowd hears of Jesus and stays in Jerusalem

  • “Church life was spontaneous, part of divine nature of God express by” people. p. 34

My Thoughts on the Bible- 

The telling of the formation of the Church is hyperactive and always in motion.

  • Jesus’ resurrection and teaching for 40 days about the Kingdom of God.

  • Jesus’ ascension with angels - message the Holy Spirit will come.

  • Believers spend time together in prayer waiting and watching

  • Peter speaks and ties Jesus to the history of God with Israel.

  • Appoint Matthias as a replacement for Judas - 12 disciples/12 tribes of Israel

  • Holy Spirit comes as a mighty wind. Spirit gives the ability to speak in unlearned languages

  • Peter speaks using Joel 2:28-32. Jesus is the fulfillment of Scripture.

    • Ties Jesus into the salvation history of Israel

  • What can we do? Repent and be baptized in name of Jesus for forgiveness and receiving of the Holy Spirit.

  • Gathered together day by day praising God and sharing possessions.

  • And their numbers increased.


God blesses people and ministry.

In Christ,

Dave Eitland
