THE BOOK OF ACTS
Lesson 1a
The book of Acts is one of the most interesting
books in the New Testament because here we see the unfolding of the glorious
kingdom that the Messiah had talked about while He walked upon the face of His
earth! A kingdom that would stand forever, which man could not destroy! That
kingdom was established as Jesus foretold, on the day of Pentecost, as is
recorded in the second chapter of this wonderful Book.
