The Gospel is not about praying a prayer to get into heaven; its about getting heaven into you.Acts 2:42-47They devoted themselves to the apostles teachingand to fellowship, to the breaking of breadand to prayer.43Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles.44All the believers were together and had everything in common.45They sold property and possessions to give to anyone together who had need.46Every day they continued to meet in the temple courts.They broke breadin their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts,47praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people.And the Lord added to their numberdaily those who were being saved.

Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord1 Cor. 2:4-5My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words,but with a demonstration of the Spirits power,5so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on Gods power.
