Solidarity with the Savior through His Witness

Acts 1:8

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy ghost is come upon you; and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” (KJV)

“TAKING CARE OF UNFINISHED BUSINESS”

We have a fireplace in our home and I love to start a fire. I a fire starter, light it on each end, and small flames burn the edges and grow. I place the wood on the flames, and the flames fueled by wood and air builds, until higher and wider it spreads consuming the wood. The flame becomes a fire.

Nearly 2,000 years ago a match was struck in Palestine. At first, just a few in that corner of the world were touched and warmed, but the fire spread beyond Jerusalem and Judea out to the world and to all people. Acts provides an eyewitness account of the flame and the fire- the birth and spread of the church (the ekk-lesia- the called out). Beginning in Jerusalem with a small group of disciples, the message traveled across the Roman Empire. Empowered by synagogues, schools, homes, markets and courtrooms; on streets, hills, ships and desert roads- where God sent them, lives and history were changed.

Acts 1:1 says, my former book. The Gospel of Luke. The book of Acts continues the story Luke begins in his Gospel covering the 30 years after Jesus’ ascension. Notice how Luke ends his gospel in chapter 24:49, “I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.” The Greek word for endued (enduo) en-doo-o, clothed, implies put on, to sink into, as you put on clothes. Acts written by Luke as a sequel to his Gospel, Acts is an accurate historical record of the early church. Acts was addressed to the same patron. Of all that Jesus begin to do and to teach. An apt summation of Luke’s Gospel, implying that Jesus’ work continues in Acts through his own personal interventions and the ministry of the Holy Spirit. The Gospel of Luke records what Jesus ‘began (the Greek word archomal (ar’-khom-ahee), to be the first to do (anything) both to do and teach’ in the human body, and the Book of Acts tells us what Jesus continued to do and teach through His spiritual body, the church. All I’ve said thus far is, Berean we got to take care of unfinished business.

Acts 1:8 also gives us a general outline of the Book of Acts as it describes the geographical spread of the Gospel. The apostles were to be witnesses from Jerusalem (Acts 1-7) to Judea and Samaria (Acts 8-9), and then to the Gentiles and to the ends of the earth including Caesarea, Antioch, Asia Minor Greece and Rome (Acts 10-28). No matter where we live, as Christians we should begin our witness at home and then extend it “into all the world.” As Doctor Oswald J. Smith used to say, “The light that shines the farthest will shine the brightest at home.”

I. THE PROMISE OF THE POWER

1.8 Jesus promised the disciples that they would receive power to witness after they received the Holy Spirit. Notice the progression: (1) they received the Holy Spirit, (2) he gave them power, and (3) they witnessed with extraordinary results. Witnessing is not showing what we can do for God, but showing and telling what God has done for us.

II. THE PROVISION OF THE POWER

This 1:8 verse describes a series of ever-widening circles. The Gospel was to spread, geographically from Jerusalem, into Judaea and Samaria, and finally to the whole world. It would begin with the devote Jews in Jerusalem and Samaria, spread to the mixed race in Samaria, and finally be offered to the Gentiles in the uttermost parts of the earth. God’s Gospel has not reached its final destination if someone in your family, your workplace, your school, or your community hasn’t heard about Jesus Christ. Make sure that you are contributing in some way to the ever-widening circle of God’s loving message.

CHRISTIANS who refuse to witness are saying to those people they choose not to witness to, “You can go to hell!”

IMPORTANCE OF WITNESSING

When the Titanic went under, three messages had been sent that said to watch out for the icebergs. Because everything looked all right, the folks taking the message never passed it on. They never sent the warning out to people who needed to hear and, as a result, over fifteen hundred people lost their lives. The folks who knew kept quiet.

Another tragedy of the Titanic was the lifeboats, designed to carry people away from the sinking ship, were only half full. People who had made it to safety in the lifeboats didn’t want to turn around and go pick up people who were dying. They didn’t want to take the risk of panicking people flipping over their boat. So the people who were saved and safe kept on going. Fifteen hundred people didn’t have to die, but they did. The folks who were saved didn’t want to go back because it was risky.

Sharing the gospel has risks- the risk of rejection, the risk of being made fun of, the risk of being called “holier than thou,” the risk of being called “Reverend”, the risk of being avoided, the risk of being asked questions you don’t know the answers to. Yes, there are risks, but when someone is dying, offering them the gift of salvation is worth the risk.

“Witness” Witness- martus (mar-toos) is a key word in the Book of Acts and is used twenty-nine times either as a verb or a noun. A witness is somebody who tells what he has seen and heard, But Peter and John replied, “Judge for yourselves whether it is right in God’s sight to obey you rather than God. For we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard (Acts 4: 19-20 NIV)

III. THE PURPOSE OF THE POWER- HOTSPOTS

Was in Branson Missouri recently, in Starbucks getting my favorite drink. A couple of guys came into the coffee shop with matching t-shirts. On the back of the t-shirts, it had Matthew 25:35-36, “For I was hungered, and ye gave me meat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me dring; I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came unto me.” On the front of the t-shirt had the name of the church, Highland Baptist Church, Natchez, Mississippi. I said to them, ya’ll long way from home. Yea they said, about a 9 hour drive. I then asked, what brings you to Branson? They said they were on a mission trip, they did a survey and found that Branson is a tourist attraction, 2-3 million people flock to Branson, and they decided that with so many people, Branson would be an ideal spot to witness about Jesus Christ. So they do a mission trip to Branson, right here in the states, come there every year, and hand out water. It blew me away, 1) we look and go to Branson just for entertainment, excitement, fun- but they look at it as an opportunity to be a witness. 2) Group of 12 young people drive 9 hours to be a witness. In this context Branson is a hotspot for evangelism. The first rule of evangelism is that to be effective you got to go where they are. The problem is that we are not going to where they are. Instead of being hotspots for Jesus, we have become cold spots. Instead of being Missionary Baptists many of us have become stationary Baptists.

My wife bought me an I-Pad. Little pad that has internet access (that’s what the “I” stands for). So whenever I go out, I look for a “Hotspot”.

“Hotspot” is a site that offers internet access over a wireless local area network through the use of a router connected to a link to an internet provider. Hotspots can be found in coffee shops, restaurants, train stations, airports, libraries, hotels, hospitals, bookstores, fuel stations, department stores, supermarkets, RV parks, and campgrounds. Many universities and school have wireless networks on their campuses as well.

WELL—I would like for you to think of the church as a “hotspot” for Jesus.

The day of Pentecost

At the day of Pentecost, God used hot stuff to usher in His Church. God is the master user of hot stuff.

The Spirit came and the people heard the sound of the rushing wind and saw tongues of fire.

The Spirit baptized and filled the believers.

The Spirit spoke as they praised God in various languages.

The Spirit “empowered” peter to preach.

The Spirit convicted the listener so that 3,000 trusted Christ and were saved.

Blessings to each and every one for a Prayerful, Public, Persistent and Praiseful Year

Carlton R. Caldwell, Moderator Berean District Association

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” Matthew 28:19

The Berean District’s Church Planting Initiative---

The Baptist Standard Church Directory and Busy Pastor’s Guide on page 5 states this plainly, “More particularly the formation of new churches as the outgrowth and fruit of strife and dissension in older ones should be avoided.” Tragically this statement expresses the historic reality of much of the church growth within our metropolitan area.

The Berean District’s Church Planting Initiative seeks to grow the body of Christ by prayerful and thoughtful intentionality to implement the mandate Christ Jesus gave in Matthew 28: 19-20 and to use methodology outlined in Acts 14: 21-28.

There are three basic models for starting new churches that the Berean District will utilize:

· The Traditional Model

Identifying and training a planter/pastor and launching the church from a specific area.

· The Organic Model

Connecting with a small group already in an area to provide leadership with a planter/pastor, encouragement, support and resources to grow the small group into a congregation.

· Multi-site Model

Facilitating, training and planting new churches as an off-site or satellite location from a main campus.

5 Steps to getting involved

Step 1First, personal relationships are the most significant reason why unchurched people were attracted to and stayed in the church. We must develop a personal relationship with non-churched community through:

· Door to door

· Face to face meetings

· Interacting

· Encouraging new people to church

Step 2Organize large gatherings (Greetings):

· Individuals can remain anonymous as they check out the church.

· Determining what relationship they have with God before making any commitment.

Step 3Set up small groups- Organize groups regarding individuals issues (drugs, education, marital, sex and peer pressure). New converts often reach their unsaved friends through their testimony and the witness of a changed life. Gaining a sense of belonging and discipline. In other words, the practice of providing small groups is the most effective means of helping new people form significant relationships and grow spiritually through:

· Bible Study Groups

· Men’s and Women’s groups

· Sunday School

· Newcomer and membership classes

· Need-Meeting Ministries

· New Believers Class

Step 4Discover Gifts

As individuals surrender to Christ, they need to uncover their God given talents & spiritual gifts. Discovering and exercising your God-given spiritual gifts allows you to experience maximum fulfillment in your Christian life and ministry. A spiritual gift is an expression of the Holy Spirit in the life of believers which empowers them to serve in the body of Christ, the church. Whether it’s leadership, faith, giving, hospitality, administration, teaching, prophecy, discernment or shepherding.

Step 5Putting your Gift’s into action.

God’s will is revealed to those who are growing spiritually in Christ through the use of their God-given spiritual gifts. Spiritual understanding takes place in action. Action produces the spiritual growth that is needed to recognize spiritual insight through:

PLEDGE’S

YOUNG PEOPLE’S PLEDGE

Realizing that in the Lord Jesus Christ, I live and move and have my being, I promised Him that I would strive to do whatever He would have me to do.

I will take the Bible as my guide and will aid my church in its work and worship. I will have grace at each meal in my home and strive to have daily family worship.

I will endeavor to be present at the meetings of the society and will try to enlist others in His service. I will give as I can for the spread of His Kingdom.

In these efforts and at all times will I seek the Savior’s guidance.

THE AMERICAN FLAG

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America

And to the Republic, for which it stands,

One nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

THE BIBLE

I pledge allegiance to the Bible, God’s Holy Word.

I will make it a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.

I will hide its word in my heart that I might not sin against God

THE CHRISTIAN FLAG

I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag and to the Savior for whose Kingdom it stands

One Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again with life and liberty for all who believe.

Disaster Relief Ministry

The Berean Missionary Baptist District Association (BMBDA), Disaster Ministry takes its lead from the Missionary Baptist State Convention of Missouri (MBSCM) and The National Baptist Convention USA (NBCUSA) Inc. The focus of the MBCSM Disaster Ministry is on our partnership with the American Red Cross to provide facilities that can be used as shelters and people who can be shelter workers. The focus on the NBCUSA Inc. disaster Ministry is much broader. While emphasizing the need to support our Red Cross Partnership, it addresses other areas of concern as well.

Based on the NBCUSA Inc. vision, we propose the following emphasis for our BMBDA Disaster Ministry:

I.Prepare the people.

II.Prepare our churches.

III.Prepare our District.

Disaster Ministry Committee:

Sister Linda Mackey, Chair

Brother Ronald Elliott

Sister Lorna Vaughn

Rev. Morris Williams

Reverend Carlton R. Caldwell, Moderator
