Being Noble

Thank you. See. I wonder whether you've heard of the ignorant Bell prices. I don't have the prices of the infamous. Nobel Prize is given to the age of a cheap. Pretty great things in life for the egg, nervo prizes, actually, celebrate ridiculous attempts of people who have toiled and injured enthusiastically, but to no discernible benefits of interest, but there's no Valentine's Day. So was awarded the Nobel Prize, for example, for explain the physics of white toast with always. I'd down or another favorite was someone. He funny that was such fun to give a reason for the question on everyone's Minds. Why is one back to keep shapes?

What we've been tracking the Journey of any Christian code for and its companions. Meet link. I will get that we've been tracking. This is the story of the Greeks and he's just being evicted from a town called Phillipi, where his friends and his friends were drunk before City officials, stripped and beaten with rods and imprisoned without trial. The reason they said that the Christian poop, but they have the Christian message with the cause of all this and now they travel a hundred miles to Festival like a city in Greece. I meant he would say they now G something which would be deserving of their own Eukanuba price. Pullen's, friends, repeat that same message to go and beaten and mocked and imprisoned in Philippine. Surely. This is the height of stupidity and uses. Let's read together. What happens going to buy, Andrew up to come and read to us? We don't read what happens infesting like it. And then another city called Berea Andre Reed's transport, the similarities between these two cities that were looking at everything and thanks.

When Paul and his companions had passed through amphipolis and Apollonia. They came to thessalonica where there was a synagogue. I was his custom, Paul went into the synagogue and I'm three Sabbath days. He reasoned with him from the scriptures explaining and proving that the Messiah had to suffer and rise from the dead. This Jesus, I am proclaiming to you is the Messiah, he said? Some of the cheese, what persuaded and joined Paul and Silas as did a large number of God-fearing Greeks and quite a few prominent women.

What are the Jews with jealous? So they rounded up some bad characters from The Marketplace phone to the mall and started a riot in the city. They rushed to Jason's house in such a Poulan Silas in order to bring them to the crowd. The when they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some other believers before the city officials chanting. These men have caused trouble all over the world. And then now come here and Jason has welcomed them in his house. They old fine ceases to Kris saying that there is another king want to call Jesus. When they had this, the crimes on the city officials were thrown into turmoil. They then they put Jason on the others on bail and let them go.

As soon as it was night, the believe is sent pulled inside us. The way to Berea on arriving that they went to the Jewish synagogue. Now, the Berean Jews would have more noble character than those infested Annika for they receive the message with great, eagerness and Examining the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true. As a result, many of them believed as it also a number of prominent Greek women and many Greek men. But when the Jews in thessalonica learned that Paul was preaching the word go to Berea. Some of them went back to. I just hate in the crowds and stirring them up. The Believers immediately sent Paul to the coast with Silas and Timothy stayed at Berea. That was what school did Paul brought in to Athens and then left with instructions for Silas and Timothy to join him as soon as possible.

Thank you, Angie.

Say, I see the kitties Tri-Cities that's focused on two similarities. First, the method trust in God's power forward. Coolest custom embroidery cities with scary straight to the synagogue. Public besties with me, as was his custom, pool went into the synagogue, a 10 as soon as they went to the Jewish synagogue. Listen to the assembly place for expat cheese and some other two equals gold ferrous or something. Now, what did he do that stew again? That's what is custom just having some Mike and she's like a great Sabbath days. He reasoned with them from the scriptures explaining and proving that the Messiah has to suffer and rice and the dead this Jesus. I'm proclaiming to you is the Messiah he said, Sorry for zika to tell the message. We are waiting for. The Messiah is the Hebrew title of God's promise King, throughout the whole Bible in Greek, that worth massage translated as Christ. That's why we got Jesus Christ from sorcerer. Name is a title. And the Messiah is the one of the Jewish believe is where I'm at to do, is believe his aunt today waiting for This message is the poorest taxi proclaiming in these vs. And he's synagogues, So I had to suffer and Roy from the dead bastidas. I'm pretending to you. He is the messiah. He's telling these people, look at Jesus. He is the one that you've been expecting the long-awaited promised Messiah. This Jesus. He's the Messiah, the Christ. And look at the reason, look at the basis for his message. He readings with them from the scriptures. I was talking here about the Old Testament scriptures. The Prompt the promises and historical events that we recorded that the Old Point. Jesus Christ. I do have a second time to look it up yourself. They're really worth of him doing. It's amazing out on every page of Lincoln somewhere. I think three looking forward to Jesus the Messiah, the Christ for filled, the great thing to do. I am the rear wheel and pools in the starting. He was preaching the word of God and same thing. And he doesn't beat around the bush, playing the simple gospel, that Christ, suffered and died on the cross to pay the punishments that we all deserve. Imma still relationship with God. And then he rose again from the dead to prove. It was them straight talk. Put your faith in him, are using the scriptures.

Apple was not ashamed of the Bible. Use the Old Testament scriptures had to show you these people needed to trust Christ. Awesome. He tells us that we can move on from the Bible. It's just a Dusty old book that contains the old part of which there may be some nice picture. But really it's just a deli supporting laws and amazing fairy tales. And then she studied by The Bible Society has published a few years ago that shows that over half of UK, parents told that story lines from The Hunger Games with a Libra quarter, believe it's Superman story, with the biblical one. I think the Bible is worth reading as tree is not. The guy that is pitiful at the base, your life on Earth message.

Is this society, says Christians is, there are ignorant about prior to putting so much into this book and following it apparently. We moved on from the Bible. Fairy tales and pool instead says no is living and active. That's why you later rights to some other Christians. We do not destroy the web, go down the country. By setting forth, the truth. Plainly we can mend yourself to everyone site to every one's conscience in the sight of God.

I pulled just write this in the nicest. We see how that he left it out. He has conviction. The goats were, the Bible is powerful. And I seem like a umbrella he proclaimed it except for the truth plainly and they released this week. I was just reading that yesterday after having Christian parents read in the Bible. If a most common reason, the song becomes a Christian in the UK.

Search enforcement officer application flows from this idea. It's be like poor people line. Be like pool with people on the first two teachers in the Bible, not to our children and youth to the Y to church family or in another setting, completely teaches the Bible, this applies to us. I was working on a text message to my friend asked me how do you go about writing it and I told him I tried to understand the Bible and see how it applies to us today. The principle of how they apply. I hit he exclaimed you one of these pictures to use of the Bible.

How many think the role of a Bible teacher is to spend the week before tokra study? Shut in the depths of their heart for wise advice to give to the listeners. I guess the other have much life experience and wisdom on 30 years old and I still struggle to cook microwave oatmeal.

Are you not as she sometimes? Anyway, it would be a problem. If I can't have you, I have something to give you. Many people have much more experience than me, or like me. I didn't why you be here. I have nothing but God does have something to teach us every time we read his word. Auntie just lost touch with the same asked you to pull does here. The reason with them from the scriptures in verse to you. We must be pulling. But this doesn't just apply to teachers in impacted every follower to use in many ways, particularly in the context of this passage sharing Faith with other people. When my friends ask me questions about my faith. My go-to resource is often my own thoughts and experiences, rather than opening the word of God with them. Now, there is a place for an authoritative, then surely. I could Point them to Jesus and his what Rothman mine was. So I really trust it to do the work. I was shocked by this a few years ago when someone challenged me to read the Bible with non-Christian friends.

I could just share the gospel and I called you right away. Yes, I could do that. I can't seem to be very much. Say in the Bible with a few friends. You can uncover that was it was mentioned earlier and then Isis has And let me tell you that transform, the conversations are typing with these people. I'm not Samantha toys using here. He's opening up with him and his evangelism. Look at the different words that he uses her in these vs. Western three. He reasoned with them from the scriptures. He explained he proved he proclaimed. I'm not supposed to be set for us and sharing our faith trusting in the power of God's word and all these different ways. You don't need to be able to give 8 proofs of God because of distance to be able to show your face. Maybe you do, maybe wants to that easy, answering people. Hope that uses office.

That's what folded we should be pulling. Paul's method is to trust in God's power forward. The second similarity. I think it's the results. We can make its pieces or examine. Racine, that pool was actually convinced about sweating powerful. So what the results are comparisons in this account picture, the confessing like it was the advice for some of the Jews but I persuaded that's 5. But others were jealous. And Bria first, 12 many, but the whole of them believed and the same facility and cheese came in Smoke Shop 13th and stirring them up. I truly tell Sara to reactions to this powerful by being proclaimed. Excuse yourself or examine the evidence. Firstly, excuse yourself. This afternoon's accused pool and its companion to being troublemakers. They make accusations of treason against Caesar.

But this is just an excuse to see that will make something that's 50. Other cheese would be jealous. Jealousy. Read sports accusation accusation.

But again, it's simply an excuse. The people think like the things of Jesus in the excuse themselves, by joining this rotting mode. Accusing pool and his companions. I'm not result in suffering for full and for Jason his friend. Message is offensive. It says that each of us has fallen short and we will face justice for all of your sets for and done the guys against both ways. Unless we put our trust in Jesus. Hearing that is not comfortable with it and people understand if you don't like it. Say sometimes they took the keys and imprisoned days. You shall. I hope like Jason and like Jesus? It still happens today. I mean must expect opposition ourselves. When we proclaim the gospel Faithfully, one expected outcome is resistance. I sometimes people just calling some other Consignment Christianity before his own plan, might be some people think the Bible is contradictory.

Christian friends coming on sides.

But maybe some people think the pie was antsy women, 15 and 100 people, focus. And that study. Lincoln oxy great place to start to show you people. They simply isn't the case. Even this passes to be seen here today, contains amazing opponents of women text about time. Does a great mention it woman that just wouldn't be expected in the time and culture. This is revolutionary for them. There are plenty of other excuses that people might use to avoid engaging with the Bible, but that's one. Excuse from the program, people are presented with the Bible and its offer. Am I excused themselves? The second option is to examine choose when they hear the weather, got the plane 11. Now that the injuries were vulnerable counter and there isn't a scene like how they received the message with great eagerness. I examined the scriptures every day to see if Whirlpool said was true. Examining the Scriptures Daily, they mentally engaged. And that's what means have to be of noble character. They would be willing to explore or examine. Gullible morons thinking in that perch. They wants to weigh out. They realized the claims made in the Bible life-changing. If at Tri-C puppy, engage with the ideas. I'm rested with them rather than just feeding them based on what that properly for. So they examined it. This tourist wants to do, excuse with her examined. And I hope a frosty consider. Cuz I'll second application is to be burying be said to be pulling want to be very in. I fish at what we had the Bible for ourselves festival and sharing. We should be discouraged by a lack of positive response to show me off a, we should expect excuses and persecution. Even if even if it happened, even our confidence is not in our power to speak. But in the one who gives us his message to communicate.

This great truth allows us to be both knowing that God uses his word pamphlet as he pleases and we can trust it, go to work and son to help him. Eat me examine his word and we should be drained.

Sharing. What about hearing wherever you are on your journey here today. It's really one for your hair. Thank you for being here and for listening, but that's online in person. One catch up. What does it mean to eat? Really examine the word. Remind me read it carefully with questions often each other with it discuss the talk of the Gathering, or maybe I should just be a passenger in small groups. If you got a long baby girl. I'm just things that I ask questions of text when you read it with it. I wonder how that sounds a bit unspiritual cheap to rational. I made the difficult person is careful consideration.

Give time and sort the words. Does, God speaks to us as we sit on this Authority. The neighbor thing here is to examine goats were investigating. It talk about the rest of it. It's true. It's an ultimate importance on this Saturday. Converse 11 is the moon, a birthing Cibrian. Do what the results when people actually listen to eye exam and God's word. People start to follow Jesus from all different backgrounds. That's for some of the cheese with his wages and join Paul and Silas. I do quite a lot of grease and quite a few prominent women. Dress 12 in Brea 5 result of the word being examined, many of them believed as to those are a number of prominent Greek women and many great men. The word has gone to work and it produces fruits in oil types. The book of Acts often speaks of gospel events when the weather is proclaimed. And this is exactly what we see here. This is how it goes to advance in space, in first-century, prayer and fasting Lanka and in 21st century, Edinborough, so we must be burying And even in the midst of difficulties with Paul and his companions and his team faced, it was gospel Freight. A few pages, 82 and acts 24 was accompanied by softest on a Paris from Berea aristarchus and second just from thessalonica and others as well. I'm related to ask our stalkers was in prison with full moons way to ring. Pools and get them to write at least two letters to the First Union Church Church in the midst of this position. Cost of opposition does not prevent the gospel fruit.

Does income tax place. Racine the goat's blood is powerful. Face peachy Street Xanax can be transformed. Incredible first class and go to invite each one of us here today to be involved in it that someone is engagement thing for the first time. The second time the first time, he's been around this thing for a while and I just need a bit of a reset on our approach to go to what We can have a few minutes now just reflect on what we picked out this morning. I don't think about how it applies to you. They're going to spend just lost. I was just thinking. What if I mean, it's time to each other after that. And I'm sure what you think this might mean to you, or if that's not what you want to do about your experience, with the Bible, say in your life. You had any interaction with that too. They just a little summary that you might be thinking about what we said. We want to be pulling. I wonder if you could share go to bed with someone this week ahead. I call you get friends or family member. That means picking up something like the word once or one, which is a result. I get back to Fresno. You read it with a friend. It means getting some of the bible to read, if you want to take one of your plywood and give it to her friends in the album. We love you to you that that purpose. Stop the music and come to join uncover, the fingers nice and Delia happening whenever it suits them. Helping insulin gauge of Jesus. In his wife has come to church with you trusting. God, worked work. We will see Santa going to be here in about. That means nobody wrestling with the account. So if you just yourself, often difficult questions, but important questions, as you examine him. Want me to sign up to uncover yourself?

Thompson means continuing to come along to church and listen to Bible sitting on the ground and gave me the right way. That means asking for on a Sunday. Anthony's chicken out. All online pre pre Sunday video called the TJ and think about the passage in advance before before we come to church or maybe it means looking at the Gathering to think about some of the more detailed explanations of some of the that you can get from a Sunday morning. Optimum starting. Are we starting have a regular Bible reading for self? It may look like something completely different, but there's just some stocking. I did take a minute or two. We can have some background music. Just sit by yourself and have a think I'll text you in a few minutes.
