Abundant Life - Acts

Latest: 21 January 2016

The book of Acts is a continuation of the Gospel of Luke. The main purpose of the book of Acts is to show how the early followers of Jesus Christ, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, spread the gospel from Jerusalem to the whole world.

Another highlight of the book of Acts is the work of the Holy Spirit, which was poured out on the believers on the day of Pentecost.
