| 0:00.0 | The It's a Even in the midst of increased persecution the early church experienced |
| 0:28.6 | phenomenal expansion. Is that kind of growth still possible today? |
| 0:34.0 | And if so, what's our role in building the church and what's gods? |
| 0:38.4 | On Truth for Life Weekend, Alistairbegg answers these questions, and he explains why every Christian church is a missionary church. |
| 0:47.0 | I'd like to read from 2 Corinthians and chapter 5 and from verse 11 to |
| 0:56.5 | korinthians 5 and verse 11 to korinthians 5 11 to korinthians 5 11 since then we know what it is to fear the Lord, we try to persuade men. |
| 1:09.2 | What we are is plain to God and I hope it is also plain to your conscience. We are not trying to |
| 1:14.8 | commend ourselves to you again but are giving you an opportunity to take pride in |
| 1:19.2 | us so that you can answer those who take pride in what is seen rather than what is in the heart. |

| 1:57.0 | Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation, the old has gone, the new has come. All this is from God who reconciled us to himself |
| 2:07.1 | through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ not counting men's sins against |
| 2:17.8 | them. |
| 2:18.8 | And He has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ's ambassadors as though God |
| 2:26.4 | were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God. God made him who had no sin to be sin for us so |
| 2:39.2 | that in him we might become the righteousness of God. Thanks be to God for his word. Now before |
| 2:48.8 | we look to the scriptures briefly let us pause and pray together let us all pray. Our gracious God and |
