5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Commentary on Acts, March 29, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Acts of the Apostles: When the Church Connects to Ultimate Power (Bible Study Companion Set, Vol. 4) (Paperback)

If you want to read a wonderful, general commentary dealing primarily with the events of the book of Acts, read this book. Here is a great quote from the chapter Transformed by Grace. "Prayer is heaven's ordained means of success in the conflict with sin and the development of Christian character....For the pardon of sin, for the Holy Spirit, for a Christlike temper, for wisdom and strength to do His work, for any gift He has promised, we may ask; and the promise is, "Ye shall receive." (Acts of the Apostles, p. 564).

Here is another wonderful statement. "Your sins may be as mountains before you; but if you humble your heart and confess your sins, trusting in the merits of a crucified and risen Saviour, He will forgive and will cleanse you from all unrighteousness." (Acts of the Apostles, p. 566).

This book was written years ago and you might find the style somewhat quaint, but you will be blessed if you are seeking for deep spiritual refreshment.

5.0 out of 5 stars From Sin to Minister in the Name of Christ, January 21, 2001

By 

Cameron Nelson (Stanwood, Washington) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Acts of the Apostles: When the Church Connects to Ultimate Power (Bible Study Companion Set, Vol. 4) (Paperback)

This book, being among a set of 5, reveals the nature of Sin and its far-reaching impact on all. As with all Ellen White's books, she conveys the way toward the abhorence of sin and to the Grace of a righteous life in Jesus. From the book, "Patriarchs & Profits", to "The Triumph of God's Love" (now titled, "The Great Controversay"), I have personally experienced steady growth in the Spirit of Christ Jesus. Thank God for Ellen White!
