Divine Disruptions (Part 2) - Acts 8:14 - 24 Lamont Ross, Senior Minister - Cultural norms, political lines and ethnic boundaries are disrupted by the gospel. - Divine disruptions redefine our relationships. - The Spirit moved in an exceptional way that was visible to others in the initial establishing of the church and when a representative group of people who had not previously obeyed the gospel believe the gospel. - In addition to giving us peace with God, obedience to the gospel allows us to have peace with each other. - Acts 8:14-24 (NASB) - Divine disruptions restructure our identity. - Heart change comes through living a life of submission to God. - The Spirit is not a commodity to be purchased and exploited. The Spirit is a gift to be stewarded - We can be tempted to abuse the power of God for personal gain. - God is calling us to the life of discipleship.
