Glorifying God in all Nations Celebrating God’s Plan of Unity in Diversity

God demonstrates that his plan through the gospel can & will penetrate all cultures and ethnicities of the world.

Scriptures to walk through today Acts 17:26-28; Acts 2:5-12 Acts 6:1-3;13:1-3 Galatians 3:27-28 Revelation 7:9-10

26 And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, 27 that they should seek God, and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, 28 for “‘In him we live and move and have our being’; as even some of your own poets have said, “‘For we are indeed his offspring.’ Acts 17:26-28

How it started: Acts 1:8; 2:5-12 An Obedient response The Holy Spirit Enables

How it was Sustained: In Antioch of Syria 3 rd largest city in empire Diverse & Cosmopolitan “ Here Christianity first displayed it’s cosmopolitan character” F.F. Bruce Acts 6:1-3; 13:1-3 Maturity & Humility Harmonious Worship & Prayer

Recognizing the removal of barriers in Christ. Galatians 3:27-28

How it will Conclude (Gods Intent) Revelation 7:9-11 Worship together around the throne We are not the focus Holiness at the center

We can celebrate God’s diversity in unity because of his grace in our lives.

How can I embrace & live out God’s plan for the nations this week? How am I living a more barrier free life with those ethnically and culturally different from me under the banner or Jesus Christ?

How am I displaying and demonstrating the grace of God to transform lives and bring men & women together under himself?
