Study 5A THE SEVEN-FOLD MINISTRY OF THE SPIRIT
DAYS OF HEAVEN UPON EARTH
(Scripture Portion: Acts 13:1-13)
In this study we consider Acts 13:1-13, where we have a seven-fold picture of the work of the Holy Spirit in the church, the body of Christ (Ephesians 1:22-23), of which all believers are members.
The Book of Acts is rightly ‘‘The Acts of the Holy Spirit’’; that is, His activity in and through the church. In the four Gospels we see Him operating through the perfect human body of the Lord Jesus; in Acts, however, we see Him working through the mystical body of Christ –- the church. In the Gospels we have the record of “”all that Jesus began to do and to teach”” (Acts 1:1) during the three years of His public ministry; but the Acts records all that He continued to do from the throne, by the Holy Spirit, through the church.
1 . The First Act of the Holy Spirit is to initiate or form the Church .
Notice the words in verse 1 –- ““the church at Antioch…”…” How did the church begin? When we speak of the church we mean that invisible organism consisting of all born-again believers. The Holy Spirit forms the church (Acts 15:14-15); but what is true of the church is true of a church, that is, a local assembly of Christians. Whether in Antioch or anywhere else, the initiation of the church or a church is not the work of man but of the Holy Spirit. In Acts 11:19-21 we see how the church at Antioch started: the ‘‘Word of God’’ was preached, and as people heard it the Holy Spirit worked; those who believed were born again, and at once there was a church –- Matthew 18:20. The Church is not a religious meeting but a company of born-again believers.
In the next part ,we shall be looking into the remaining Acts of the spirit of God,before the time,have  a deep thought over what you have read,are you not just a religious man but His spirit is absent.pray over it and share with your love ones.God bless you.
