The crucifixion of Jesus Christ is the greatest event in history; it is the central theme of the Scriptures; it is the crisis point through which God’s eternal purpose of redemption was accomplished. It is imperative that we study and know about this critical event in the life of our Savior, Jesus Christ. In this series, we examine one particular aspect of the crucifixion: the 7 statements Jesus made while He hung on the cross. These statements, which were uttered during the greatest event in history, are clearly significant. We will look at the order in which the statements were made, the situation and purpose for each statement, and the insight each one gives us into the mind and heart of our Savior as well as the reason that He died on that cross.

The Jerusalem Council - 1

Acts - Book of Transitions

(Acts 15:1-6, Gal. 2:1-14) We begin a study of the council at Jerusalem as recorded in Acts 15. When false teachers came to Antioch (Syria) insisting that Gentiles must be circumcised to be saved, Paul and Barnabas withstood them. The church in Antioch determined to send Paul and Barnabas to the apostles and elders in the church in Jerusalem to settle this issue. However, Paul records in Galatians 2 that he went up to Jerusalem by revelation from the Lord, not just to address the issue of Gentile salvation, but also to validate his apostleship and ministry to these leaders among the Jews.

Scripture References: Acts 15:1-6, Galatians 2:1-14

From Series: "Acts - Book of Transitions"

The book of Acts is one of the most important books in the Bible, touching on many key doctrines that affect how we worship and serve the Lord. Yet, it is also one of the most misunderstood books of the Bible, an issue that has caused great division among believers. This series of lessons is a verse by verse study, from a dispensational perspective, through the book of Acts, a book that is marked by transition. These messages were preached by Pastor Gregg Bing at Grace Bible Church during the morning worship service in 2022-2023.
