Liberti Church Carrara Sermons

Acts 13:13-52 | In Acts 13, Paul's first sermon demonstrates God's sovereign initiative in Salvation from Abraham all the way to Christ; to whom the Old Testament continually points. As Paul preaches the gospel of grace he urges his audience to continue in the grace of God. While the Jews initially seemed pleased in hearing Paul's presentation of the gospel, they became jealous as they saw multitudes of gentiles responding to the grace of God. As we consider the reviling response of the Jewish audience, we are invited to reflect on our own response to the gospel and to consider what may be hindering us from continuing in God's grace.
