"Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock." - Matthew 7:24-25
Jesus said over and over again that we should build our lives on his teachings, but what does that truly involve? Join us as we break down the last words Jesus left us (The Great Commission) and the apostles' response to them.

Notes:
God wants us to have fellowship with Him and with each other.
Fellowship is built around a shared purpose. Everyone is devoted to their vision and to each other.
In the Acts 2 church, there were simply believers and non-believers.
All the believers met together daily and sharedeverything they had.
The basics about God and money:
1) God owns it all. We are just stewards. Luke 3:11-13, Proverbs 3:5-6
2) God loves first fruits. Genesis 4:3-7, Proverbs 3:9, Mark 12:41-44
3) God blesses tithes and offerings (a.k.a. trust).Malachi 3:6-12
4) The two greatest commandments apply to everything.Luke 3:7-14 & 6:37-38
Lord, I will....
