Sunday's Text 1-6-07

Hope everyone is having a great New Year's and Epiphany Week. Starting this week I'll begin publishing the Sermon text for the coming Sunday as soon as I have it selected. You may read ahead and also respond to this post with any questions or discussions regarding the week's sermon. Bear in mind this is not for me to heap up praise (or abuse) this is for real discussions or questions. So please, as much as I enjoy hearing "Good Sermon Pastor!" I'm not looking for that here. But I hope this can be used to start some great interactive discussions that our busy schedules and crazy lives might otherwise cause to be neglected.

In Christ and on the Shepherd's Path,

Mark

Acts 2:37-42

Now when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, " Brethren, what shall we do?" 38 Peter said to them, " Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 "For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself." 40 And with many other words he solemnly testified and kept on exhorting them, saying, " Be saved from this perverse generation!" 41 So then, those who had received his word were baptized; and that day there were added about three thousand souls. 42 They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.
