We Are witnesses: Part Two
The book of Acts is the action book of the New Testament, and it constitutes therefore one of the most exciting books of the Bible. The full name is “The Acts of The Apostles,” but there are not many apostles mentioned in it. James, John, Peter and Paul are the only ones who appear in any prominence. Through the centuries, Christians have shortened this title and called it simply, ‘Acts.” I like that better for this is the book of action, revealing how God is at work through Church.
Acts is the book that reveals the power of the church. Therefore, when a church begins to dwindle, lose its power, and turn dull and drab in its witness, it needs desperately to get back into the spirit and the knowledge and teaching of the book of Acts. In this book, the principles of the exchanged life — "Not I, but Christ" — is dramatically unfolded.
