So when they had come together, they asked him, "Lord, will you at this time
restore the kingdom to Israel?" He said to them, "It is not for you to know
times or seasons that the Father has fixed by his own authority. But you
will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my
witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and
Samaria, and to the end of the
earth."
Acts 1:6 - 8 (ESV)
When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place.
And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it
filled the entire house where they were sitting. And divided tongues as of
fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. And they were all
filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit
gave them utterance.
Acts 2:1 - 4 (ESV)
And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the
breaking of bread and the prayers.
And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through
the apostles. And all who believed
were together and had all things in common. And
they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds
to all, as any had need. And day by
day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they
received their food with glad and generous hearts, praising God and having favor
with all the people. And the Lord added
to their number day by day those who were being saved.
Acts 2:42 - 47 (ESV)
Who is Promise
Do you want to be released from the guilt
of the "I have to" church? At Promise we are the "I
want to" church, because we are compelled by the love of God,
not the rules of man (Galatians 5:1). Come experience
the grace of God at a church that strives to practice what it
preaches! More importantly, we strive to practice what
God preaches!
We pray that you will take some time to
explore the many aspects of our church. We want you to
make an informed decision to visit us, know what we believe
and what we are about. If you don't know anything about
God, it would be our privilege to introduce you to our loving
savior.
