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 Nation Israel is Set Aside

Acts - Book of Transitions

(Acts 28:30-31) After Paul's final pronouncement of blindness upon Israel and his final turn to the Gentiles in Rome, the book of Acts ends rather abruptly, leaving us with many unanswered questions. The reason for this is found in the purpose of the book of Acts. It is not just a history book; it is not a biography of the life of the apostles; it is not a record of the birth and development of the Church, the Body of Christ; it is a record of God's final dealings with His earthly people Israel. The nation's rejection of the ministry of the Holy Spiit during this period results in the setting aside of Israel as a nation. This morning, we look at what this means for them as well as for believers today in this present age of grace.

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.
