Hebrews 10:24-25 gives a direct charge to believers to gather, to consider one another, and to spur one another on toward love and good works. This study will treat that command as practical and binding, not as a mere preference, because God connects assembling...
The account of Paul and Silas in prison in Acts 16 is one of the clearest examples in the New Testament of God intervening publicly, powerfully, and unmistakably. The foundations shook, the doors opened, and chains fell off. Luke records these details because they...
