Double for all our sins.

11:00am Service | Pastor Lee Armstrong | The Whole Christian Life
#1) Acts 2:42- 47 (Read NLT)
Vr0 46 “Every day they continued meeting”
In the temple AND
From house to house (12 scriptures of validation)
*Acts 1:13, Acts 2:2, Philemon 1:2, Col. 4:15, Rom. 16:1-27, 1st Cor. 14:26, 1st Cor. 16:19, Acts 20:20, Rom. 12:4-8, Acts 5:42
Acts 1:13, Acts 2:2 Upper Room/Filled the House
Philemon 1:2 “To Philemon our beloved friend and fellow laborer, to the beloved Apphia, Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house”
Col. 4:15 “Greet the brethren who are in Laodicea, and Nymphas and the church that is in his house”
To many Christians only experience only ½ the Christian Life. If you’re not fully alive your half dead!!
- Christianity without outward expression/involvement becomes nothing more than Religious Narcissism.
- Like being a part of a championship team but refusing to play in the game.
An Observation: Most the people complaining about “not being fed”. Are from people not doing anything!!!
#2) Jesus did only two miracles “In the Church”!!
*Healed a withered hand (Mark 3:1-6)
*Cast out am unclean spirit (Mark 1:23-28)
All others were in the market place and homes!!!
#3) 40 plus years of experience have shown me that the biggest impact and influence in my life have been outside the church, face to face, NOT my messages!!
You can influence by the thousands, but you have transformational impact one on one.
Principle: Transformational impact is always about a willingness to get involved!!
