Abounding GraceAbounding GraceGrowing Churches Require Godly Leaders Part 2Today on Abounding Grace we turn to Acts chapter six. The early church is just a few months old at this point in time, and it’s growing rapidly. But then a problem arises in the form of complaining and potential division. We’ll see how the leadership faced the problem directly and biblically today.

Some suggest that the sign gifts have ceased, and no longer for today. That would include the speaking of tongues, it’s interpretation and prophecy. But today on Abounding Grace, as we complete First Corinthians thirteen, we’ll discover that we need the Spirit, gifts and manifestations until the Lord returns.

But in the midst of this unity came hypocrisy - as a husband and wife named Ananias and Saphirra conspired to give the church the impression that they were giving all they had from the sale of a property. God disciplined them by taking their life. Today on Abounding Grace pastor Ed Taylor investigates the effect this had on the church at the time and the effect it should have on us today.

Following their deaths, you might think that the church would go down in numbers and it would have a negative impact. But the exact opposite occurred. It resulted in large numbers coming to Christ and a good number of miracles too! Today pastor Ed Taylor speaks of the purity, unity and power that returns to God’s church. We’ll be in Acts five.

The passage before us describes a couple that were living a life of hypocrisy. Another way of putting it is they were giving the appearance of something they were not! This displeased the Lord greatly and He ended up taking their life as a result, sending a powerful message to those that follow!

But Satan used all of this as an occasion to inspire something else. It’s then, Satan recognized, he couldn’t beat the church, so he joined it. It’s an ancient tactic he still employs today.

But now our focus shifts to the soon return of Jesus, and you’ll see how the two are related in a moment. We’re to love like Jesus, until He returns.

But you may be pleased to know, that’s not required to be used of God.

The Lord gives this man far more than he could have ever imagined! It’s very encouraging to remind ourselves that our God seeks to do far more in and through our lives than we could have ever dreamed possible.

But do you try to figure it out on your own? A much better way to go is to look to the Lord in prayer, and wait upon God. Today we’ll join pastor Ed in Acts chapter one, where a case could be made that Peter is getting ahead of the Lord. Instead of waiting, like God instructed him to do, he’s acting and putting limitations on God.

If you’ve been in the church for quite some time, you’re probably familiar with some of the controversy. In one camp you have those that claim these sign gifts have ceased.
