Sermon And Prayer Points By Pastor E A Adeboye, 2015 RCCG Holy Ghost Congress, Day 1 (Monday) FLOOD OF LOVE

2015 RCCG Annual Holy Ghost Congress

2015 RCCG Annual Holy Ghost Congress

Text: 1 John 4:7-11
7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

The bible teaches that Heavens has gates. Gen 28:10-17. We’re also told in Psalm 29:10 that God seats on floods and His throne can be described as flood. Isaiah 44:3. When we talk about flood gates of Heaven, it means heaven has gates and He is seating on flood.

THE FLOOD OF LOVE,
1 John 4:8
8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

What Happens When God Releases The Flood Of Love

2015 RCCG Annual Holy Ghost Congress

2015 RCCG Annual Holy Ghost Congress

1. Love covers nakedness. Nakedness and shame are synonymous. Gen 2:23-25, Gen 3:1-13, 21. The first thing God did in d garden of eden was to cover the nakedness of Adam and Eve after their fall. Love covers nakedness. Joel 2:25:27, Isaiah 54:4.

Prayer:
Father, out of Your love, cover my nakedness, don’t let me be put to shame.

2. Love can neutralise death. Song of Solomon 8:6, 1 John 3:14, John 11:1-5, 34 (Story of Lazarus) because He loved Lazarus in a special way, the man who have been dead came to life. Love can change the date of death of someone.

Prayer:

Father, the date of appointment of death over my life, Lord change it right now in Jesus Christ Name! Amen!

3. Love gives the best. John 3:16, Romans 8:32, Gen 29:3-30. Love gives the best and if the best is not enough, it gives extra. 2 Chronicles 1:6-12, 2 Samuel 12:24. When God put it in your heart to do something for Him, He is setting you up for a miracle.

Prayer:
Father, the best You can give to any human being, give it to me tonight.

4. Love guarantees total victory. Romans 8:37, 8:31, Psalm 68:1-3, 1 Samuel 17:32-51. Isaiah 41:10-13

Prayer:
Father, arise tonight and fight for me

5. Love chasten, chastised, discipline. Revelation 3:19, Proverbs 29:15. If you do something wrong and you are not chastised, it means you have been forsaken. Hosea 4:17, Hosea 5:9. Whenever you are doing something wrong and God is not correcting you, you are in danger.

Prayer:

Father if I offend You, rebuke me but please don’t forsake me

In conclusion

We have discovered that heaven has gates, God seat on flood and He is ready to release His love. Proverbs 8:17, God will release His love on those who love Him. 1 John 3:17, 1 John 4:20.

If you haven’t yet given your life to Jesus Christ it means you are wasting His love for you

I Am Like God. If God Cannot Be Defeated, Then I Cannot Be Defeated


I Am Like God. If God Cannot Be Defeated, Then I Cannot Be Defeated

“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him;male and female created he them.”
Genesis 1:27 (KJV)

God, in creating man, took the dust and moulded a form that couldn’t move, talk, hear, reason, or do anything. He took the form, stood it before Him, took part of Himself, and breathed it into that form. Then man became a living soul. When man opened his eyes the first thing he saw was God. God was saying to man, “You are like me.”

You are like God. Do not be afraid to accept the fact that you are like God, because God made you in His image. It is not abomination for a son to say he is like his father. When he does so it is acceptable. But at times we find it intimidating to believe that we are like God and that His plan for us is that we should function like Him. We look around and we are confronted by our inadequacies and errors. The very fact that you feel inadequate is proof that God is ready to do a great thing in you. God hardly ever uses the qualified; rather, He calls the available and makes them qualified. Stop feeling limited, and refuse any attempt by the enemy to put you down. Without any shadow of doubt God said, “I want to make them in my image and likeness”, and He did. Beloved, you are exactly like God.

Child of God, you are like God. And you have eternal life, so stop living a low life. Stop going about with limitations. Stop saying you cannot make something happen or that you are disadvantaged simply because of your background. If God is not limited, you cannot be limited. If God is a success, then you are a success. If God cannot be defeated, then you cannot be defeated.

You are like God your Father. Praise the name of the Lord!

Genesis 1:26-28
26 Then God said, “And now we will make human beings; they will be like us and resemble us. They will have power over the fish, the birds, and all animals, domestic and wild,[a] large and small.” 27 So God created human beings, making them to be like himself. He created them male and female, 28 blessed them, and said, “Have many children, so that your descendants will live all over the earth and bring it under their control. I am putting you in charge of the fish, the birds, and all the wild animals.

 

Genesis 2:7
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

Psalm 82:6
I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.

All The Days Of My Appointed Time, Will I Wait Upon The Lord, Till My Change Comes


All The Days Of My Appointed Time, Will I Wait Upon The Lord, Till My Change Comes

“For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.”
Habakkuk 2:3 (KJV)

Many times, we feel that God is too slow in coming through with His Word. We often feel like taking a shortcut. But beloved, if you take a shortcut you will cut yourself short. Remain steadfast in the word of God.

Let us look at the Patriarch Abraham, who today is called the “father of faith”. When God promised him a son, such a thing did not appear feasible from the human standpoint. In fact, it seemed impossible for the word of God to come to pass. The more impossible it looked, the more reassuring God was. And for the next twenty-five years all Abraham had was the promise. It got to the point that Sarah begged Abraham to help God. He took a shortcut and gave birth to Ishmael. But no sooner was Ishmael conceived than trouble began in his home. Eventually, Abraham had to let go of the son he had gotten through a shortcut.

Abraham was not the only human who tried to help God. Take a moment to remember Jacob and the various methods he used to get wealth from Laban, his uncle. Jacob eventually had to let go of all that he had acquired crookedly and had to seek his true blessing. You must let go of “Ishmael” for “Isaac” to come. At times it may look like God’s promise is delayed, but be assured that the blessing will occur at its appointed time. It will not tarry, so patiently wait for it.

Please wait on God’s timing. Job 14:14 says, “If a man die, shall he live again? All the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come” (KJV). The wait may appear long but as the Psalmist rightly said, “[. . .] weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning” (Psalm 30:5, KJV). Your morning of joy has come. The Lord has chosen to remember you. This is the day that the Lord has made for you to rejoice in. Get ready for your miracle because it shall surely come.

Hebrews 6:11-20
11 Our great desire is that each of you keep up your eagerness to the end, so that the things you hope for will come true. 12 We do not want you to become lazy, but to be like those who believe and are patient, and so receive what God has promised.

God’s Sure Promise
13 When God made his promise to Abraham, he made a vow to do what he had promised. Since there was no one greater than himself, he used his own name when he made his vow. 14 He said, “I promise you that I will bless you and give you many descendants.” 15 Abraham was patient, and so he received what God had promised. 16 When we make a vow, we use the name of someone greater than ourselves, and the vow settles all arguments. 17 To those who were to receive what he promised, God wanted to make it very clear that he would never change his purpose; so he added his vow to the promise. 18 There are these two things, then, that cannot change and about which God cannot lie. So we who have found safety with him are greatly encouraged to hold firmly to the hope placed before us. 19 We have this hope as an anchor for our lives. It is safe and sure, and goes through the curtain of the heavenly temple into the inner sanctuary. 20 On our behalf Jesus has gone in there before us and has become a high priest forever, in the priestly order of Melchizedek.[a]

Psalm 30:5
His anger lasts only a moment,
his goodness for a lifetime.
Tears may flow in the night,
but joy comes in the morning.

Romans 4:17-22
17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.

18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.

19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah’s womb:

20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.

God Sees Only The Best In Me


God Sees Only The Best In Me

(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
Romans 4:17

Many a time, when we look at ourselves, we don’t see what we can become. But when God looks at us, He sees what we can become by His grace.

When Jesus first saw Simon, whose name in Greek means “reed”, He changed his name to “Peter”, which means “rock”. But did Peter instantly become someone with the characteristics of a rock—solid, stable and unshakable? No, for a long time, he continued to act like a reed that bends every which way the wind blows.

Once, when Peter saw Jesus walking on water, he took a bold step of faith and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.” Then, as he was walking on the water, he saw the boisterous wind, got scared and when he began to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” (Matthew 14:28–30) Another time, he said, “Lord, I am ready to go with You, both to prison and to death.” (Luke 22:33) Then, a few hours later, he denied knowing Jesus not once, but three times. (Luke 22:54–62)

Yet, throughout his reed-like behavior, Jesus kept calling him “rock” until one day, how Jesus saw him began to take root in him. That day, on the Day of Pentecost, Peter stood up to preach and 3,000 people were saved! (Acts 2:41) Peter had indeed become a rock, a pillar in the early church.

That was how Jesus transformed Peter. And that is how God wants us to change the people and situations in our lives.

God did not tell us to call those things which exist as they exist. What is the point of stating the obvious? It is not going to change anything. No, God tells us to call those things which do not exist as though they did, and they will!

1-Samuel_2-2: There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God

1-Samuel_2-2: There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God

Jesus Came To Bridge The Gap Between God And I


Jesus Came To Bridge The Gap Between God And I

He has anointed me to preach good news to the poor…
Luke 4:18

“Jesus went through all the towns… teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom” (Matthew 9:35).

Imagine Jesus walking from village to village and proclaiming the good news of His kingdom to anyone who would receive it. “Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things” (Colossians 3:2). Jesus came to bridge the gap between man and God.

Today, we have the advantage of looking back to the cross. On Calvary, Jesus saved us from an eternity spent in Hell and brought us into the glorious kingdom of God… and that’s good news. The message of the cross never changes.

Because of sin, there was an enormous breach between God and His creation. But God built a bridge through the cross. Now, instead of being separated from God by the chasm, we can have a personal relationship with Him. Galatians 3:13 says, “Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law.”

When you share the good news, you are sharing truth already accomplished. God’s love will never change. All you have to look for is God’s anointed time for people to hear.

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God” (Ephesians 2:8).

It’s the most wonderful gift anyone could hope for-share it!

God Will Do What Has Never Been Done Before Because Of His Love For Me


God Will Do What Has Never Been Done Before Because Of His Love For Me

“And in the fourth watch in the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.”

Matthew 14:25 (KJV)

Beloved don’t allow the devil to create fear and doubt in you. If need be, heavens will intervene on your behalf. God will do what has never been done because of you. Jesus had to walk upon the Sea of Galilee. That is a type of divine intervention. He decided to walk upon the sea to show the disciples that what they are afraid of is afraid of them. They were afraid of the storm. And he understood that the only way he could make them cease from fear was to give a demonstration by walking on the sea.

Jesus was in essence, saying: The word I spoke has already taken care of the storm. If only you can receive it. Before I spoke I knew the storm would come. But I have sent my word ahead of the storm. I have already gone ahead of you. Therefore, the storm has no power over you.

Child of God fear not. His word has gone ahead of you. His word will take care of every storm that rises against you. However, be careful not to be so used to God that when he comes in another form, you will not know. The Bible says, when the disciples saw Jesus walking on the sea, they thought he was a spirit because they were used to how He would manifest Himself to them.

Do you know that God can come in the form of the person you hate? And if you are not talking to the person, and God is trying to reach you, you will miss God. The result is that you will remain in your situation. It is imperative, therefore, that you walk in love, so that you don’t miss your moment of visitation.

Do not hinder the power in the word in your life. How can you be living in the same house with somebody for one week and you will not talk with them. If you don’t understand the man that is with you, how then can you understand God? Let us take away the little foxes that destroy the vine.

Matthew 14:22-27
22 And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.

23 And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.

24 But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.

25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.

26 And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.

27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.

 

Galatians 5:1-6
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

King Jesus!

The kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

Romans 14:17, NKJV

The Jews had many preconceived ideas about the Messiah based on their interpretation of Scripture and what they wanted. When Jesus of Nazareth came on the scene with His public ministry, He was neither the Messiah they had been expecting, nor the Messiah they wanted. The Jews wanted someone Who would:

Raise their standard of living,

Grant them privileges without responsibility,

And restore them to the world power they had known under King David and King Solomon.

They wanted someone who would meet their physical and material and emotional needs.

They expected a glorious, victorious King Who would rid them of the Romans and establish them in national peace and prosperity and prominence. But the first time He came, He came to establish the kingdom of God, not in the world, but in the hearts of men. He was born to die. And so He was rejected as the King of Hearts. Then. But what about now? Would you crown Him King of your heart today?

The Word Of God Is More Powerful Than Any Witches And Wizards


The Word Of God Is More Powerful Than Any Witches And Wizards

“And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.”

Luke 1:45 (KJV)

The word of God is more powerful than any obstacle. It is more powerful than witches and wizards. It is more powerful than incantations, spells and divinations. It is more powerful than any pronouncement and negative things that are working against you. The word of God has been spoken. And he will see to it that the word spoken in your life will come to pass.

I encourage you, therefore, to hold on to the word. Hold fast the profession of your faith without wavering. Never give up your confidence. Cast it not away. God will see to it that the word is validated in your job, business, academics etc. Don’t be afraid, no matter what you encounter. There shall surely be a performance. “With God nothing shall be impossible” (Luke 1:1-37, KJV).

If you hold on to the word, you are guaranteed of victory. The word cannot fail. If it fails, it means God has failed. He has said His word will not return to Him void. That is why we have an edge against the world. They don’t have the word of God. We have an edge because we have the God factor. God is with you. With you, God will do mighty things. He will do the impossible. He will shut the mouth of the enemy. He is God. Beside Him there is no other.

Why do you think you are saved? Is it to become a disgrace to His kingdom? No! You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a peculiar person, a holy nation. Set apart to show forth the praises of Him who has called us out of darkness into His marvellous light. You may have missed it severally but you will succeed. Don’t go about with your head bowed to the devil. Lift up your head! God has already perfected everything that concerns you and He wants you to function from that standpoint.

Hebrews 6:9-20

9 But even if we speak like this, dear friends, we feel sure about you. We know that you have the better blessings that belong to your salvation. 10 God is not unfair. He will not forget the work you did or the love you showed for him in the help you gave and are still giving to other Christians. 11 Our great desire is that each of you keep up your eagerness to the end, so that the things you hope for will come true. 12 We do not want you to become lazy, but to be like those who believe and are patient, and so receive what God has promised.

God’s Sure Promise
13 When God made his promise to Abraham, he made a vow to do what he had promised. Since there was no one greater than himself, he used his own name when he made his vow. 14 He said, “I promise you that I will bless you and give you many descendants.” 15 Abraham was patient, and so he received what God had promised. 16 When we make a vow, we use the name of someone greater than ourselves, and the vow settles all arguments. 17 To those who were to receive what he promised, God wanted to make it very clear that he would never change his purpose; so he added his vow to the promise. 18 There are these two things, then, that cannot change and about which God cannot lie. So we who have found safety with him are greatly encouraged to hold firmly to the hope placed before us. 19 We have this hope as an anchor for our lives. It is safe and sure, and goes through the curtain of the heavenly temple into the inner sanctuary. 20 On our behalf Jesus has gone in there before us and has become a high priest forever, in the priestly order of Melchizedek.

Hebrews 10:35-39

35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.

36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.

38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

God Says It! I Believe It! And That Settles It!


God Says It! I Believe It! And That Settles It!

 

“It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”

John 6:63 (KJV)

The word of God will fight for itself. If Jesus did not fail, the word of God will never fail because Jesus and His word are one. Let the rain come down, let everyone be against you, but hold on tenaciously to His word. You may not understand the things around you but just hold the word. And you watch what the word will do.

In Mark 4:35, Jesus said “let us pass over unto the other side”. That was the word that came from the lips of Jesus. And they got into the boat and started going. Suddenly, there was a storm. The wind became contrary. But, nevertheless, they could not be stopped because Jesus had spoken.

Maybe, you are experiencing contrary situations in your life. You are experiencing things that are contrary to what God has spoken. The Lord has spoken that by His stripes you were healed. He has spoken that with long life will he satisfy you and show you His salvation. He has spoken that no weapon formed against you shall prosper. He has spoken that you are blessed going out and blessed coming in. He has spoken that you have been redeemed from every curse of the law. My friend, forget the devil. God’s words are spirit and life. They will not fail. Devil, I say to you get lost. God’s people shall manifest.

Beloved, God is not intimidated by the attacks of the devil. He would not start a thing and stop it halfway. God will overrule for you. There is a divine investment into your life that is about to shake nations and affect community. Don’t you ever think that God will just watch and allow the devil to mess with you. I declare to you that you are coming out of every pressure and every influence of the devil. The devil will never have the last word. If anyone will testify, it is you.

Joshua 21:43-45
43 And the Lord gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein.

44 And the Lord gave them rest round about, according to all that he sware unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the Lord delivered all their enemies into their hand.

45 There failed not ought of any good thing which the Lord had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.

READ: Psalm 105

I Did Not Deserve God’s Forgiveness, But He Forgave Me Through Christ Jesus


I Did Not Deserve God’s Forgiveness, But He Forgave Me Through Christ Jesus

Matthew 18:21
Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?”

Peter asked the Lord how often he should forgive his brother. The Lord’s answer to him was simple: Up to 70 times seven times. (Matthew 18:22) In other words, all the time!

“Well, he does not deserve my forgiveness.”

Neither did you deserve God’s forgiveness.

There is not a single person alive or dead who did not break all 10 of God’s commandments. There is no such thing as a “partial sinner” or “great sinner”. All of us were great sinners when Jesus saved us. And when we realize that we are forgiven much, we will love much. (Luke 7:47)

“How can you say that I have broken all of God’s commandments? I have never committed adultery.”

My friend, Jesus said, “If you lust after a woman in your heart, you have already committed adultery with her.” (Matthew 5:28) That is God’s standard. Man looks outward, but God looks inward at the heart. Moreover, if you break one law, you are guilty of all. (James 2:10) So everyone has broken all of God’s commandments. Everyone is a great sinner.

Now, you are no longer a sinner if you have received Christ as your Savior. You are a new creation. But you were a great sinner and God forgave you your huge debt through the death of His Son.

So if someone has wronged you, tell yourself this: “I did not deserve God’s forgiveness, but He forgave me through Christ. So I forgive this person also.” If you say something like, “He does not deserve it,” it makes no sense. Forgiveness is not for people who deserve it. If they deserve anything, it is punishment. But forgiveness means that you extend grace—undeserved favor—like how God extends undeserved favor to you.

Beloved, if you choose to hold on to bitterness, no one suffers but you. You lose your peace, then possibly your health. It is just not worth it. God says to you, “Let go. Forgive them their debts, just as I have forgiven you yours.”

My God Is No Respecter Of Persons. If I Act On His Word, Without Doubt, He Will Honour My Faith


My God Is No Respecter Of Persons. If I Act On His Word, Without Doubt, He Will Honour My Faith

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.”

John 14:12 (KJV)

In our text today, Jesus began by saying: “Verily, verily [. . .]” (John 14:12, KJV). In other words, Jesus is saying, “I am telling you the truth that I know.” Jesus Christ goes on to say, “[. . .] the works that I do shall he do also [. . .]” (John 14:12, KJV). Is Jesus a liar? Certainly not. He cannot lie. He is the truth and everything He speaks is the truth. Beloved, let us not cower like failures and defeated people. Let us not cower as if we are in trouble. We must begin to exercise our God-given authority in Christ.

In the early ’70s, when the revival hit Nigeria, people were doing all kinds of crazy things and getting results. I’m talking about believers. This is why the word spread the way it did. This is how churches spread. The believers were doing whatever they read in the Bible. When they read that Jesus said, “Go and spread the gospel”, they moved from city to city and saw incredible miracles.

I know of a believer who read that Jesus said, “Go to every city and preach the gospel. Heal the sick, cast out the devil, and raise the dead.” The man began to go to every house. After knocking he would ask: “Is there anyone who died here?” He went from street to street till late in the evening when he finally found a place where somebody had died. A little child had died in the morning. When he said he wanted to raise the child the people looked at him and told him that he was crazy. This man was a new believer. He acted on the word of God, and the Lord honoured his faith. After he prayed, the child sneezed and came back to life. Praise God!

Beloved, God is no respecter of persons. If you act on God’s word, without doubt, He will also honour your faith.

Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.

2 And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;

3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.

4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.

5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.

6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
Acts 3:1-6

4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.

5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.

6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.

7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed.

8 And there was great joy in that city.
Acts 8:4-8
