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.

The Terrible Triumvirate - Part 5 - Devo for 03/20/2009

Reading
Revelation 12:1-13:18

Going Deeper
Daniel's visions and prophecies of the end times contain similar imagery. Compare this Old Testament vision with Revelation. Read Daniel 7:1-28.

Exploring the Meaning
1. What added insights does this passage contribute to your understanding of the beasts in Revelation 12-13?

2. What promises are given of God's ultimate victory (vv. 9-14, 18, 22, 27)?

3. Read John 8:44. How did Jesus describe Satan?
(Verses to consider: John 10:10; 1 Peter 5:8; 1 John 3:8)

1. I think it explains more about the beasts then revelation does and more about what will happen....it is easier to understand.

2. That God will take away all the other beasts power and rule in the end.

3. as a liar and the Father of Lies.
