Expelled is a feature-length film in which host Ben Stein (Ferris Bueller’s Day Off) embarks on a quest to unveil new scientific facts that may suggest evidence of intelligent design in the universe and expose the suppression of such evidence by science’s anti-theist elite.

Last week we looked at the decision of the Jerusalem council, which determined that the non-Jews who were now coming into the church didn’t have to become Jews in order to become Christians.  This was a very important decision and essentially ruled out all forms of legalism or works-based  merit before God.  We examined legalism and the difference between that and a biblical faith which leads to good works.

This week we will look at idolatry - one of the things the council wanted to emphasize to the Gentiles as prohibited.  They rightly assumed that non-Jews would need to learn that the God of the Bible is not to be worshiped with idols.

The notes and audio can be found on the Notes & mp3s page.

KIDS Inc’s KIDS Church happens in the gym Wednesday evenings from 7-9pm.  We have fun and games, kids’ worship and a Bible lesson.  KIDS Church is aimed at kids at the elementary school level.  

At the same time we’ll also have worship, teaching, fellowship, communion and prayer upstairs at 66 Books in Horizon Hall. The study is a book-by-book Bible survey, taking a look at a new book each week.

KIDS Church and 66 Books are synchronized to the same book.  This week we’ll look at Book 38: Zechariah.  You can view the notes here below:

In this chapter a conflict arises in the church.  Certain Jewish believers wanted to impose specifically Jewish rules and practices, including circumcision, on the newly converted Gentiles.  The conflict leads to a big meeting in Jerusalem among the recognized leaders in the church.  They conclude that clearly the Gentiles need not “become Jews” in order to be Christians.  Rather they come up with a short list of things that the Gentiles need to be aware of.  In conclusion, we’ll look at the whole issue of legalism in the church. 

Notes and audio can be found on the Notes & mp3s page just as soon as they are ready.

Next week in Part 2, we’ll finish the chapter examining both idolatry and sexual immorality.  These are two points the early church leaders realized needed to be specifically addressed in the non-Jewish world of that time.  They are areas we need to address just as much today.

Today we start by looking at what is in many ways a model church, the church in Antioch.  They are an international group, committed to prayer and fasting, and became the first church to deliberately send out missionaries.  Those missionaries were Barnabas & Saul, later called Paul the Apostle.  We’ll also look at the first part of their first missionary journey.  Check out the Notes & mp3s page to study along with us.
