What the Bible says about God's Church
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Acts 1:6-8 Despite spending three-and-a-half years of intense training with Jesus, the apostles retained the common Jewish concept of the establishment of God's Kingdom. Paraphrased, Jesus said, "God is working it out. You need to focus your attention on another area at this time." The work of God was about to make a dramatic turn, occasioned by something that had never occurred before in the history of the earth. God would give His Spirit, visibly manifesting His power in many, and simultaneously launching His church and the preaching of the gospel! His Family was about to make its greatest numerical advancement to that time. It was a unique time in history. It has not happened in that manner since. John W. Ritenbaugh Preparing the Bride Related Topics: Church | Church of God | God's Kingdom | God's Work | Holy Spirit | Holy Spirit, Manifestation of | Preaching the Gospel | Work Of God
