It's Day 17 and we're in Acts 1.
Where God Spoke To Me:
- Verse 7 - I don't remember noticing this verse before. This has a lot to say to preachers who spend endless time speculating on end times possibilities.
Help:
- Verse 11 - The latter half of the verse is a reference to the Second Coming.
- Verses 15-26 - I think this is a mistake by Peter. He was not told to fill that twelfth spot. I think God had Paul in mind as being Judas' replacement and Peter did something he wasn't asked to do. If so, that means the first major decision by a Christian after Jesus left was a mistake.
