The Unhindered Harvest Acts: The Unhindered Harvest

Acts 2:41-47 So then, those who had received his word were baptized; and that day there were added about three thousand souls.

They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

Everyone kept feeling a sense of awe; and many wonders and signs were taking place through the apostles. And all those who had believed were together and had all things in common;

and they began selling their property and possessions and were sharing them with all, as anyone might have need.

Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart,

praising God and having favor with all the people praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord was adding to their number day by day those who were being saved.

A Summary An atlas of God’s work “People” not “persons” Demonstration Acts…the new Exodus

“Luke is giving a description of the ministry…to one another in a variety of contexts, not simply telling us what happened when they gathered for what we might call ‘church.’” (Peterson, pg. 160)

Signs of Life Critical to see They received They were baptized They were added

Signs of Wellness Unending sequence They were devoted Formally Spontaneously The teaching The fellowship

They were acutely aware They were together Signs of Wellness They were acutely aware They were together More than attendance Actively attentive Daily living

Signs of Wellness God caused growth The “people” grew The “persons” were faithful By the hand of God

Reaping the Harvest It’s all about devotion Isolation is never healthy We live, God grows Reaping the Harvest
