By: Frank Tunstall, D. Min. Joseph was a property owner from Cyprus, and a Levite. The disciples called him Barnabas, meaning Son of Encouragement, and as time moved forward, the name stuck. Joseph “sold a field he owned and brought the money and put it at the apostles’ feet” (Acts 4:36-37). A man named Ananias […]
By: Frank Tunstall, D. Min. A short seven weeks before Pentecost, the Jewish leadership had rejected their Messiah and brutally crucified Him. The people praying in the Upper Room that fiftieth day had reason to believe their lives could be in danger. Many who gathered outside did too. So, what motivated their bravery? The Holy […]
By: Frank Tunstall, D. Min. Peter wrapped-up His indictment on that grand first Pentecost by saying, “Let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ” (Acts 2:36; see also Acts 4:10). With this conclusion of Peter’s Pentecost sermon, he sealed the indictment against the evil […]

By: Frank G. Tunstall, D. Min.

Philip went to one of the towns in Samaria and “proclaimed the Christ there” (Acts 8:5). Jesus had […]
By: Frank Tunstall, D. Min. How important that we rethink our doctrine of repentance and rediscover sin is sin precisely because it violates God. “Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love,” King David pled following his tryst with Bathsheba that ended in her pregnant and her husband murdered. “According to your […]
By: Frank Tunstall, D. Min. Think about it. Rebellion against God is how the indictment reads, and every living person is guilty. “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). We have no plea to make; indeed, we can never do enough works of righteousness even to mount a defense. […]
By Frank Tunstall When Jesus was eight days old His young parents made the five-mile journey from Bethlehem to take Him to the temple for dedication and circumcision (Luke 2:21-24; Leviticus 12:8; Exodus 13:1-2, 12). Even if Joseph by this time owned a donkey for Mary to ride, it had to be a hard journey […]
