Acts: The Spread of the Gospel

This study is taken from John MacArthur's "Acts: The Spread of the Gospel." My prayer and goal for this devo is that we will learn more about how the early church laid the foundation for what we possess today, and that we would allow God to use us to turn our world upside for Him!

This will be an exciting journey, so encourage others to join you! I'm looking forward to the interaction we will have on this blog as we study the book of Acts!

The devos will differ in format from day to day, but two things are constant: 1) a daily reading, and 2) additional Scripture passages that are in bold. Be sure to read any and all of the readings/bold verses that appear so that you can see the full picture of what is taught that day.

Remember, you can access any of the previous devos that have been posted from the "Blog Archive" section on the left side of this page.

Chapter Two - The Reality of God's Supremacy - Devo for 11/01/08

(Review & Continued from yesterday)

The author of this study says, "If we do not spend time meditating upon these unique excellencies [the supremacy - firstness- of God], we cannot understand how it is that we are to "glorify God," nor will we know what it means that "all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." The Bible writers everywhere admonish us to "glorify God" - to show His supremacy."

QUESTIONS
Read over these last three verses and quickly explain how we are to put them into practice.

1. Romans 15:6
2. 1 Corinthians 6:20
3. 1 Corinthians 10:31

questions:

1.
Romans 15:6-we need to use our mouth and heart to glorify God in all that we do.

1. We shold (with our minds AND our mouths) glorify God.
2. We were bought by God, for a price, so we should glorify God with our body and our spirit, which belong to God.
3. Whatever we do, even if it is small like eating or drinking, we should do it all for God's glory.
