Living in the power of Jesus’ name

And when they had set them in the midst, they inquired, “By what power or by what name did you do this? Then Peter, filled with the Holy Sirit, said to them, “Rulers of the people and elders, if we are being examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed, let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead – by him this man is standing before you well.

Stay…until you are clothed with power from on high.

And behold, I am sending the promise of my Father upon you. But stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high.

Though we cannot see, we believe.

John 20: 30-31 Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

Alleluia! He is Risen!

He lives! All glory to His Name!
He lives, my Jesus, still the same!
Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives:
I know that my Redeemer lives!

Have this mind among yourselves

Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.

Whoever would be great among you

But it shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many. (Mark 10:43-45)

Look to Christ and Live

So Moses made a bronze serpent and set it on a pole, And if a serpent bit anyone, he would look at the bronze serpent and live…. for by grace you have been saved, through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God….. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already…
