Acts 9:15 – But the Lord said to him, “Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the children of Israel.”

1. Our purpose as a church

  • Acts 9:10-19
  • Who am I – chosen instrument
  • Why am I here – to carry my name
  • What should I do – go and suffer

2. Four Hindrances to Becoming a Multiplying Church

  • Failure to take seriously Jesus’ promises about the Holy Spirit – John 16:7
  • Failure to understand how much lost people in our culture must be reached today
  • My Own Idolatry
  • Unbelief

3. Speak Up!

  • Acts 4:1-31
  • Get the word out with urgency Acts 4:1-5
  • With Simplicity Acts 4:6-12
  • With Boldness Acts 4:13
  • With Passion Acts 4:14-20
  • With Prayer Acts 4:23-31
