Media, Other Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Beautiful things surprise us, take our breath away and send chills down our spines. Beauty can be visual, audible, or spiritual. We are fascinated by beauty. It captivates the human heart, mind and soul. But, we rarely stop to ask where beauty comes from. The Bible tells us that all beauty finds its origin in God – particularly in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

In Acts 15:36-16:40 we witness the planting of the church in Philippi. It is hard to imagine a more diverse group: severely religious, severely enslaved and severely indifferent. These three are racially, socially, psychologically worlds apart. But, what we see in this passage is that Jesus is an all-sufficient savior that applies and appeals to all people, everywhere – even today.

In Acts 15:1-35 we get to listen in on the great Jerusalem Council. This episode is far from being an irrelevant 1st century debate. In fact, here we learn about the primary enemy of the gospel and the primary essence of the gospel. This is vital for us as we seek to increasingly become a Gospel astonished church, filled with people who give everything they have because they understand that in Christ they already have everything the need.

In Acts 13-14 Paul and Barnabas embark on the first of three missionary journeys. The Christian mission is not merely to build houses and help people do a little better. It’s not less than that, but it is much much more. This is not merely the story of two guys walking around convincing others to believe something different. The Christian mission is to reestablish supremacy of Christ among all the peoples of the world, starting with us.

In Acts 12 is about the deep providence of God. The chapter opens with James dead, Peter in prison and Herod victorious. But, the chapter closes with Herod dead, Peter free, and the word of God victorious. This is the goal of all that God does, to spread the fame of Jesus, who saves sinners, and makes much of the Father. That’s our mission too.

In Acts 11:19-30 we see five marks of Jesus’ mission for the church: method, message, character, people and the mercy. God calls us to Him, by faith in Jesus, but then sends us out with Him on mission. You’ve never really lived until you being to live for something bigger than yourself. Jesus invites you to do just that, in Him.
