Power to be Bold


This Sunday in our 8:30am Contemporary Service, I'm going to be speaking from Acts 4. The message title is, Power to be BOLD.


There are some Christians who are so bold they're weird. Some Christians aren't nearly bold enough...how do we find the balance? Especially considering that we're living in the politically correct culture that we do, and all of the added pressure that brings into our lives of being witnesses.


There's a scripture in Acts 4:12 that is so bold, and so non-politically correct, that I would guess if any of the candidates for president dared quote this scripture, they would be run out of their party...

"Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."


Sadly, I am sure we will never hear any of them quote it...
How did the same disciple who denied knowing Christ find such boldness? He plugged into the power of the Holy Spirit...and so must we if we want to do something to impact this world.

I am bold, I think.
