Acts 12:20-13:12

7/13/2012

 
Click here to read today's passage on Bible Gateway.

First of all - I'm aware it's been a while since we've done a Friday giveaway.  Things have been busy, but be patient!  We'll have one in a few weeks.

The Bigger Team
Something different for today:  a short little Bible study on missions for you.  The Mexico STM leaves next Thursday, so this is a very timely study.

Read over Acts 13:1-4 again more closely, then answer the questions.  You don't have to put your answers in the comments, but please do let me know some of your thoughts after doing it, particularly on the final question!

Who really sent Paul and Barnabas as missionaries?

How was their “home church” involved?

What did the church do before sending them out?

What are some of the ways that people who are NOT going on a missions trip can be part of God’s work in that trip?

Why do we as Christians “do” missions? (Feel free to use whatever Bible verses or other resources you need to answer)

I remember that Jesus said one of the greatest commandments was loving thy neighbor as you love yourself. I remembered that passage in the bible because i realized that "neighbor" can mean a lot of people- actual neighbors to neighboring countries. Therefore by sharing the love that Jesus showed us to our neighbors, no matter how far or close they are, we are fulfilling His greatest commandment.

Did the people of Tyre and Sidon receive the Gospel before Herod was angry at them? I was looking up where Tyre and Sidon were, and I wasn't sure if they were part of the lands that the apostles preached to beforehand?

In verse 2, it says that the Holy Spirit set them apart for their work. Is it the same these days for people doing missions or any sort of ministry? Is everyone set apart by the Holy Spirit for specific work?
