Stay In Your Lane

Acts 1:6-11

Church with a messed up structure…

TURN: As Christians, we can often lose focus on our job…

1. The disciples were concerned with things for which God is responsible (Develop Inductively) (Acts 1:6)

2. Jesus reminded the disciples of their responsibility (Develop Inductively) (Acts 1:7-8)

Jesus corrected the disciples for not staying in their lane (Acts 1:7)

He instructed them to tell the world what they learned about Jesus (Acts 1:8)

3. Until Jesus returns, his disciples have a job to do (Develop Inductively) (Acts 1:9-11)

Jesus ascended into heaven (Acts 1:9)

Angels told the disciples to stop staring because Jesus would return (Acts 1:10-11)

Main Idea: It’s the Father’s job to decide when Jesus comes back; it’s our job to tell people about Jesus until he does

APPLICATION: (1) Share the gospel; (2) model gospel transformation…

CONCLUSION: How are we using the time God has given us?
