Our video on Acts 8-12 explores how God’s Spirit transformed Jesus’ followers from a small collective of messianic Jews in Jerusalem, into a multi-ethnic movement that quickly spread throughout the nations. #Acts #Paul #BibleProject
The Bible Project guys, I'm from Brazil, and what you are making with this videos is awesome, I would love to volunteer myself as a translator, I work in a TV studio and I have pretty good notions on filmmaking process. As I was watching this video, God put that in my heart, let's talk ?
Hi Canal! Fill out a translators form here: thebibleproject.com/translators/ We may already have a Portuguese team in mind, but you might be able to help out.
No I don't think I have because he was talking the Bible not a different Bible. and Jesus was talking about being unpopular among the world. but most of the people who watch this channel are Christians!
Have you ever heard of the "Mahdi" he is the "peacemaker" before the Messiah(Jesus)comes in Islamic Theology. Look him up, he sounds just like the depicted Anti-Christ. And Islam is a Anti-Christ religion so its followers won't notice a blink.
@@aocnetwork I love watching both of your channels it has helped me understand the Bible more in depth 🙌🏽❤️🙌🏽❤️ more and more content .. we can never get enough 🤗
A lot of people don’t realize how intense all this stuff really was. And the Bible’s writers were not afraid to tell it how it was. The Bible’s really intense.
Jon Collins, too funny. So Saul is going to start a new diet 😂😂 you can hear the laughter in Tim Mackie's voice 😂👍🏼❤🕊🌈🤓 love it! Keep the kingdom fires burning Bible Project
you guys didnt know how this series helped me understand the bible and the opportunity it gave me to spread the good news to others by sharing these. God bless you all
Paul is my favorite story of redemption, because it shows us why God tells us to love our enemies. "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible" Matthew 19:26
I thank the Lord Jesus the Message has spread and reached Brazil . Thank you guys for sharing and spreading it too. I love your work guys. Greetings from Brazil
@@matthew4449 Didn't the messagearrive in Brazil with the sword and vast bloodshed. As with the arrival in Mexico where 4/5th of the popoulaion died of murder disease and pestilence. The population of Jamacai was all but a few totally destoyed by murderers. Is the kust by murder for Aztex & Myan gold the message you wrote of?
Brett Williams ik right it's such an amazing movie!!!! But the movie took place right before he was going to die. And he was just rememberering. It would be so cool to see a movie of everything. Of all his voyages and just the relationships he built and persecution he faced and then write back to those friends to keep strong. I love acts 😂
I sincerely, can't wait to meet us all mighty soon!!!!! Ooooohhhhh Precious HOLY SPIRIT, thank YOU for keeping us prepared for The Kingdoms of our LORD GOD ALMIGHTY and of HIS CHRIST ammmmeeennnnn
Please don't lose faith in me even when I'm slipping away. I beg you to bring me to you. I want to be humble. I want to be selfless. Please help me! Your stories give me hope even when no one else is there! Even when there are others around me I know it is you who keeps me alive! Thank you for your great word!
"God writes straight through crooked lines" - despite all the tragedy and persecution early Christians faced, God did not let it stop the Gospel from reaching the ends of the earth. Rather, He even used the scattering of the disciples to spread the Good news all around the world, and to reach us up to this day! Same with the apostle Paul: He used Paul's life to demonstrate His power to bring about a 360° transformation/conversion even in someone with a terrible, bloody, and hateful past like Paul (Saul). God's sovereignty is awesome!
Now I fully understand the story about the founding of early Christian Church and how the message of Jesus spread from Jerusalem to the world. Thank you so much for bringing the story alive.
thank you for the video! i got new perspective why Paul did all bad things to Jesus's followers. God's word is amazing, always give me something new to learn.
i am a sinner. every day i sin....and every night i repent....and the cycle continues. been trying to talk to this thing in my head...i dont know what or who it is. all i know is it is in my head....and it want me to come back to him. he loves me, but i dont know if i love him. but i am stuck with him. then the strange part......everytime....i read the bible or hear a holy message or watch videos like this.....i feel an electric shock starting in my brain. a tingling...and it radiates from my brain down to my spine and outwards throughout my body and it feels so good! peaceful....and i say "i know it is you, why do these words make me feel good?" and he says....."because you love me"
Praise GOD for the work of his believers. Thank you so much for creating such a epic way of learning the Biblical Gospel. All Honour and Glory to our Father in Heaven. Thank you JESUS 🙏😇 Love this, and love what it is doing to the hearers of his living word.👍👍💯
Yes Lord Jesus said, But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” acts 1:8 ❤❤❤
Thank you soooo much for explaining that vision Peter had in its proper context. I can't even begin to tell you how many people of the Christian Faith that have made that vision into a doctrine about how they believe that they can eat unclean animals and that God was okay with it. It's true what God said in Hosea 4:6. My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge.
You guys do such a great job. God bless you all abundantly and enable you to keep up the good work. You are making great impact. I so love this channel
Indeed, it wasn't PRIMARILY about food, but it does have implications for food. Jewish Christians may still adhere to Kosher food laws, but Gentile Christians do not have to.
Hailey Paige that verse isn’t in the original text, hence the parenthesis. (Its Mark 7 btw...) But even if He said it, all *_food_* IS clean. But some animals are not food. Pigs, catfish, shrimp, clams, lobster, rats, dogs, etc., are not food according to the biblical definition of food set forth in Leviticus 11. Jesus would NEVER have changed the laws on food. Read that chapter again. The whole discussion was about why the apostles didn’t wash their hands with a man-made ritual hand washing before they _ate bread._ They weren’t having a conversation about whether pork was now on the menu. Why not trust that God knows better than you what animals are not good to be eaten? He did make them all, after all.
kosi okoye that’s not true, did you read what I wrote above? All verses used to support that doctrine are taken wildly out of context. Food is definednin Leviticus 11. All _food_ is clean. Some animals are not meant to be food. They never “become” food. Also, notice that Peter was commanded three times and he STILL did not eat. Did God chastise Him for not eating? No. He simply took the sheet back up, and left Peter bewildered. Peter figured out the visions _correct_ meaning when three Gentiles stood at the door. We do not have any right to add private interpretation to a vision in scripture where the interpretation is given _twice._ Some people might also go to Romans 14 for a defense of eating all things... but Paul, being a Pharisee, would have NEVER taught that you can eat all things, He was even falsely accused of teaching against the commandments of God in Acts 21. Romans 14 is about _fasting_ and how _fasting_ is NOT a commandment, so no one can compel you to _fast_ on any certain day, (looking at you, Catholic Church!), nor can anyone compel you to refrain from any particular _food._ all food is clean. Period. That never changed! But not all animals were meant to be food. We have to believe that our Creator knew better than we do what should go into our bodies- since He designed us!!
Awesome video, I’ve watched these videos for about half a year, and when I talk to my family about the Bible they say that my knowledge about the Bible and Christianity is a lifetimes worth of knowledge, and it’s all thanks to the amazing prophets the LORD is sending. GOD BLESS!!! ❤️✝️
I love you guys for teaching to the best of your knowledge and doing your best to spread the word. God richly bless you and keep you so you may fulfill your purpose. 💖💖💖💖
James 4:11-12 Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?
Thank you for these Bible Projects. They help me so much to understand and to stay in Faith as well. I pray that everyone behind these videos are blessed abundantly and the viewers as well. In Jesus Christ name Amen🔥
The book of Acts is one of the most beautiful books in the bible. It records the early church and especially Jesus salvation for gentiles! For me! Glory to the Lord Most High
Glory be to God for enabling you to tell the Bible in a pictorial overview centering around the Loving finished work of Lord Jesus Christ on the cross to redeem the world back to God. It brought live to the Gospel in the most amazing yet plain and simple way. Keep up the good works!! May all who watch it experience God's Sacrificial Love.
I had worked in the Christian Bookstore Industry for about 10 years during my 20s and even so I don't recall the Bible Story being explained so clearly than in these videos without any agendas letting the Bible speak for itself. I learn something new from every video. Bravo to you guys.
I have to say that......I think I saw what Paul/Saul had seen. Jesus in glory Glowing bright skin like an arc weld and a robe like he made it from the sun, He held out His hand to me! I'm worried though If it wasn't Him. And yet If it was not Him, then it only brought me that much closer to Him. How does one discern between these things, between good and evil since we are not to lean on our own understanding? and finally what does this mean for me. IM scared and yet know that there is peace beyond understanding He is real and very much alive! how do I help feed His sheep? God Love you bless you and keep you in His favor.
Super excited for the next two videos! God bless the Bible Project! I love animation and its so amazing to see the Word of God come to life! I am a visual learner so it's very helpful to see everything drawn out!
Wow. Thanks for all the explanations . I finished reading acts a month ago and now wanted to learn in. Before that wanted a quick look into the events. Just searched acts of apostles and got these videos. Thanks a lot
I love the correction of the "new diet" idea. Accurate. Peter remained loyal to the Biblical dietary laws, and that's important because the clean animals Instructions (especially) still applies today (Leviticus 11).
@@user-uq4xj7uy2y Believers are not under any obligation to keep a kosher diet. How we eat may be better or worse from a health perspective, but it doesn’t make us any more right with God. 1. Jesus spoke of this principle: "Do you not perceive that whatever enters a man from outside cannot defile him, because it does not enter his heart, but his stomach, and is eliminated, thus purifying all foods?" (Mark 7:19). 2. Paul knew this principle: "I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself" (Romans 14:14). Therefore he could conclude, "Therefore let no one judge you in food or in drink…which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ." (Colossians 2:16-17)
This was very encouraging for me. I had an argument with someone who believes that only Hebrew Israelites are saved and after being reminded of the Roman Centurion, the Ethiopian, and the Samaritans, I no longer am afraid. I am not a Hebrew Israelite descendent, my ancestors were Irish and Swedish, So I was so scared that I was going to Hell for something I can't control. I can't physically change my genetic code. Thank you.
