The Bible a weird and
fascinating book: the ascension and Pentecost coming and a PCC / synod meeting
to sort out a technical admin issue?
Narrative and normative:
this is not just a dusty history lesson, but what are we to learn from it exactly?
It was a church that
obeyed Jesus and waited
It was an apostolic church
– but of course it wasn’t just the apostles
It was a church that
joined constantly together to pray
It was a church that made
good decisions together:
It was a church that read
the Bible in a striking way as significant and authoritative for its life and
all about Jesus
It was a church which trusted
in the sovereign plans of God
It was a church that intended
to provide convincing testimony to the ministry, ascension and resurrection of Jesus
It was a church that saw
itself as the New Israel
