  3. Distinctive #1: Preaching and Teaching of the Gospel is THE Priority. We faithfully tell The Story of Jesus at all times.

  4. Distinctive #2: The Emphasis of our Message is More on What God Has Done Than on What We Are To Do.

  5. All of our secondary teachings flow out from The Gospel. They don’t eclipse it.

  6. Distinctive #3: Church Members Demonstrate the Beauty of The Gospel in the Community. “God’s Demonstration Community”

  7. Many of these “Signs” were just the “church being the church,” displaying God’s Kingdom in tangible ways. * Acts 2: 42-47

  9. “Sign” #1: Love & Unity in the Church

  10. “Sign” #2: Generosity with Money and Possessions

  11. “Sign” #3: Joy in the Midst of Difficulty and Persecution

  12. “Sign” #4: Miraculous Answers to Prayer

  13. These “Signs” Are Meant to Accentuate The Gospel, NOT to Replace its Message.

  14. Acts 8: 4-8 Philip’s Preaching of Gospel & Signs Acts 9: 36-42 “Tragic” Death and Raising of Tabitha
