Miracle #1
Paul breathed out
Paul breathed out insults, persecutions and threats to the followers of “The Way”
insults,
persecutions and
threats to the followers of “The Way”
Paul asked for and received permission from the
Sanhedrin (Old Testament Levites, called by God to be His Holy One’s, never to own land but to serve and be served)
Why would the Sanhedrin care about the people of “The Way”
Took from their power
Took from their influence
Took from their INCOME
Here is the miracle...
Acts
Like a bolt of lightning…except there was no thunderstorm
The Lord Jesus spoke to him…audibly, a voice, maybe a loud voice.
I don’t know about you but… that would get my attention.
Then in verse 5
Understand “Lord” here is not “Lord Jesus” it is Lord as in boss.
Saul is saying… I am busted!!
Jesus who I saw or at least heard about
Did many miracles
Cast out demons
Healed the sick
Walked on water
Fed the thousands with really nothing
Was tried and convicted, and sent to be cruxified
Died and was buried
Rose from the dead!!
IS TALKING DIRECTLY TO ME
Miracle #2
Acts
He was given explicit instructions what to do
and by the way Saul...
YOU ARE BLIND
Miracle #3
Ananias was told in this vision exactly what to do
But he checks it out and verifies exactly what he is suppose to do..verifies again, and just checks things out
Acts 9.
Miracle #4
This is the miracle that has the most impact on us, today in our world
This is the miracle that has the most impact on us, today in our world
Acts 9.15
Jesus says…in my name, wherever there is a person to be reach, they should be reached out in the name of Jesus!
There is NO LONGER an emphasis on the Jews first then the Gentiles
It means we all are to be offered salvation in the name of Jesus and his work on the cross was done so that Whosoever will accept him as Lord and Savior will be saved.
Miracle #5
Jesus says…in my name, wherever there is a person to be reach, they should be reached out in the name of Jesus!
He called him “Brother,” Adelphe…were the word Philadelphia “City of Brotherly Love” comes from.
This man, up until 3 days ago was persecuting, killing, salking Christians or followers of “The Way.”
AND NOW HE IS BROTHER!!
AND he is filled with the Holy Spirit… the same Spirit that indwells all believers today.
AND HE CAN SEE AGAIN!!!
Miracle #6
Acts 9:20
He had a complete change of heart…he was no longer the man he was before
He was no longer an ally, an advocate, a zealot of Judiasm
He was a follower of Christ
He went on to write 3/4 of the New Testament
And here is the 7th Miracle in this passage
THAT SAME JESUS, WHO CALLED TO SAUL
THAT SAME JESUS, WHO BLINDED SAUL
THAT SAME JESUS, WHO GAVE THE SPIRIT
THAT SAME JESUS, WHO HEALED SAUL FROM HIS PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL BLINDNESS
THAT SAME JESUS, WHO GAVE SAUL A NEW NATURE AND A NEW MISSION AND A NEW RESULT
— IS THAT SAME JESUS--
WHO GAVE ME A NEW NATURE, WHEN I ASKED
WHO ANSWERED THE SIN IN MY PAST WITH A FORGIVENESS IN THE FUTRE
WHO CAN FORGIVE ANY AND ALL SIN, NO MATER HOW HORRIBLE AND HOW UNFORGIVABLE IN OUR MINDS
WHO WILL BE THERE ON JUDGEMENT DAY…ADVOCATING, PLEADING OUR CASE WITH THE FATHER
TELLING HIS FATHER THAT HE HAS ALREADY DIED AND SUFFERED THE WORST OF PUNISHMENTS FOR MY SIN
AT WHICH POINT JESUS WILL SAY…WELL DONE GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT!!
