Acts 4 Discussion: Prayer and Giving Time 0:00
Jared led a discussion on Acts Chapter 4, focusing on the arrest of Peter and John. He also emphasized the power of prayer and giving for the common good. The conversation ended with a prayer led by Jared, asking for the Lord's guidance and understanding of the Scripture.

Acts 4-23: Spread of Christianity and Persecution Time 2:28
Jared discussed the events in Acts 4 and 23, focusing on the spread of Christianity and the reactions of the Sanhedrin and the Roman Empire. He highlighted the powerful message of Peter and John, who, despite being uneducated and threatened, refused to stop preaching about Jesus. The Sanhedrin could not deny the miracle that had been performed and decided to risk the disciples instead of punishing them. Jared also connected to the beliefs of the Pharisees and Sadducees and emphasized the significance of the name of Christ as a representation of salvation.
Personal Experience and Faith-Work Balance Time 7:45
He shared his personal experience of being considered uneducated and untrained but still having a passion for teaching God's word. Jared also touched on the importance of acknowledging and responding to miracles and the mistake of thinking that being a descendant of Abraham guarantees salvation. He emphasized that faith and works are crucial components of our salvation.
Biblical Governance: Following Good Works Time 12:20
Jared led a discussion about the role of governing authorities according to biblical teachings. Jared underscored that as long as civil ordinances align with good works, they should be followed.
Bible Discussion: Confirming the Word Time 15:22
In the meeting, Jared led a discussion about a segment from the Bible. Jared highlighted the importance of this petition, not for the signs and wonders themselves, but as a means to confirm the word they speak. He also emphasized the recurring presence of the Holy Spirit in the Church, often experienced in assemblies, and noted the quick response to the disciples' petition.
Communal Living in Early Christianity Time 19:26
Jared discussed the concept of communal living among early Christians, as seen in Acts 2:44-45. He emphasized that while communal living is not a mandate for all Christians, it serves as a reminder that all things are meant to be for the benefit of all mankind. Jared also highlighted Barnabas as an example of Christian generosity. The discussion ended with a prayer and Jared encouraging the audience to continue seeking God's truth, living out the teachings, and helping those in need.
In Christ, Love Jared W Campbell
