De Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day: And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.
Lu And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high. They thought surely now would be the time for the Lord to establish His kingdom and they were anxious for that to take place.
Ac But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. The Lord knew He was going to use Peter and this infant church to reach thousands of people with the Truth.
As we consider this heavenly challenge to the first church, we must realize the application for us as well. This is a corporate challenge to Grace Baptist Temple, and an individual challenge to each one of us here this evening. The scriptures are for us too, Amen! Was it because they were just awestruck?

He took on an earthly form but what made him different was that he was perfect. After Jesus was crucified, his mangled body was taken off the cross and placed in a borrowed tomb offered by a man named Joseph.
At this very time, the world was shaken because a man that was so pure and innocent was put to death without a cause. The veil in the temple that separated man from the most holy symbol, the Ark of the Covenant, was torn from top to bottom. Earthquakes caused rocks to break loose from their places. Graves of those who had died opened and the dead came alive.
It may seem that those who rejected the teachings of Jesus thought they had done away with him, but his work was only beginning. For three days, the tomb where the Son of God laid was guarded by Roman soldiers. And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
