Who is Jesus ? Who knows the answer ? This has to be the most important question of all time !

The people who met Him. How can I be a witness? Let’s look in the book of Acts! Writer ? Dr. Luke Date ? 61 AD Reader ? Theophil Divisions ? Four Key word ? Witness(es) 33x Message ? Be true Application ? Is my testimony true ?

A good witness is hard to find. “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you ; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth." Acts 1v8 NASB Good or bad you are one !

Let’s look at just one example ! “After they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch.” Acts 14v21 NASB “Preaching the Gospel”

Digging deeper for diamonds “After they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch.” Acts 14v21 NASB “Evangelism in depth”

Gospel gems we often miss “After they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch.” Acts 14v21 NASB “Make disciples”

Let’s continue the journey. “After they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch.” Acts 14v21 NASB It takes persistence !

So what’s the results ? “After they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch.” Acts 14v21 NASB Timothy !

Don’t stop now ! “When they had appointed elders for them in every church, having prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.” Acts 14v23 NASB Never stop praying.

Review, react and remember:  The book of Acts is more than history, it is a “manual”.  A good witness is hard to find.  The world needs to hear the Gospel and what to do about it.  God saves, we make disciples.
