Cornelius, the Roman Centurion | O Church Arise: Modern Lessons from the Early Christian Church

This week, we'll be studying Acts 10:24-48 under the theme "Cornelius, the Roman Centurion." The second quarter of the book of Acts undeniably demonstrates God’s desire for multiethnic, multicultural congregations. God has reconciled a world to himself through the grace of the God-Man Jesus, and now we’re to demonstrate that otherworldly reconciliation in our unity to people with whom we only have Jesus in common. Even the Apostle Peter was shocked that God shows no favoritism.

The book of Acts is the story of the early Christian Church. It is the ministry Jesus CONTINUED to do by his Spirit and through his Church even after he ascended into heaven. By studying this book, believers not only learn the important history of the Church but also receive focus for what our mission as a congregation and individual disciples should still be today.
