Most people assume that water baptism is something that Christians should still practice today, but they certainly don’t agree as to who, how, or why it should be practiced. The Apostle Paul, our apostle for this present dispensation of grace, declares in Ephesians 4:3-6 that one aspect of the unity of the Spirit is that there is only one baptism. In this brief series, we examine what Paul meant by this and how it affects our understanding of the place of baptism in God’s purpose for His people.
These Bible messages on the One Baptism were preached by Pastor Gregg Bing in 2006-2007 during the morning worship services at Grace Bible Church in Fort Worth, TX.

Israel's Response to the Kingdom
(Acts 3:22 - 4:7). In our previous study, we saw that though Israel had rejected and crucified their own Messiah, Jesus Christ, they had done so in ignorance and were given another opportunity during the Acts period through the ministry of the Holy Spirit. After healing the lame mane in the temple, Peter offered the kingdom to Israel if they would repent of rejecting Jesus as their Lord and Christ and if would turn their hearts back to God. In this study, we look at the response of the nation to this offer, including the response of both the people and their rulers.
Scripture References: Acts 3:22-26, Acts 4:1-7
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.
