The Beginning of a New Beginning
- Why could Jesus not succeed in explaining to the disciples that He had not come to defeat the Romans?
- What was the purpose of Jesus spending 40 days with his disciples after his resurrection?
- Do Adventists baptised just by water or by the Spirit too?
Pentecost
- In what way was the Holy Spirit given at Pentecost different from earlier times?
- What difference could be noticed among the disciples after the outpouring of the Holy Spirit?
- At what point could it be said that the Kingdom of God had been set up on earth, incarnation, baptism, crucifixion, Pentecost, Second Coming, or Third coming?
Facing the Sadducees
- Why would any Jew not believe in the resurrection? Does not the Old Testament teach about resurrection?
- Does the performance of miracles indicate that preachers are genuine and their doctrines sound?
- Is it more dangerous to be a Pharisee or Sadducee?
The Stoning of Stephen
- How is it that Stephen was the first one stoned, rather than one of the disciples? Why does God allow certain people to be martyred and spare others?
- Was Saul acting according to the best of his knowledge at the stoning of Stephen? Could he have been saved at that point in his life?
- Who was the winner at Stephen's stoning?
Changing Attitudes
- Was the attitude of the disciples towards Samaritans racial, religious, or national discrimination? Is religious discrimination excused?
- How do we know that Peter's vision did not indicate that all meats were now fit to eat? Why is this portion of the Mosaic law still binding and not other portions?
- Are all people really created equal?
