Building the Church - Sermon on Audio CD by Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892) Overview
"The Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved." (Acts 2:47)"It seems from the text that the additions to the church which were made in the early spring of Pentecost did not always occur in one form, sometimes they came in crowds, and at other times by gradual increase. On one day there were three thousand added--that is an instance of mass conversions, when a nation is born all at once.
In such a work we are bound to believe; I mean not merely in the possibility of it, but in the probability of it, for it stands to reason that what would convince one man in a particular condition of heart would as readily convince three thousand or thirty thousand if they were in the same state.
Given the same soil, the same seed, the same season, and the same wonder-working God, and I cannot imagine any reason why there would be a limit set to the results. The Holy Spirit is divine, and consequently he knows how to influence all kinds of men and women, and he can by the instrumentalities now in use reach just as many as he pleases."

Bible Object chapter for Kids:
The apostle Paul says in 2 Corinthians 5:17, "If anything is in Christ, he is a new creature. The old things have passed away; behold, new things have come." It's sort of like these two bottles here.
Hold up water in left hand, soda in right hand.
In my left hand, I have a bottle of water. Have a student open the bottle.
Let's pour some in a glass. Have the student take the bottle and pour some in a cup. Tell the student to sit back down.
In my right hand, I have a bottle of Sprite. Let's pour some of that in a glass. Have another student take the bottle and break the seal on the cap. This time stop her.
Did you hear that? What kind of a noise did that bottle just make? They should reply that the fizz created a squirting noise.
This bottle sounds more "alive" than the plain water, didn't it? Have the student pour some soda into the other cup.
What is this liquid doing that the other didn't do? It's sizzling and sparkling. Have the student sit down.
Before we give our lives to Jesus, we're a minute like this plain water. We look okay, but we're kind of bland. We're kind of boring.
After we give our lives to Jesus, we're more like this soda pop. We sparkle. We come alive.
Now let's observation something about the two glasses. If we don't touch either for a minute or so...do they look sort of the same? Yes, they look very much the same. They're both clear. But one makes a sparkle every once in a while.
Often times in life, Christians look very much the same as other people. But when it comes time to show the love of Jesus in our lives, we tend to sparkle. How do we do that? How do we get the power to look more sparkly than others? God fills us with his love and power, which makes us different.
Colossians 3:1 says it very well: "If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sets at the right hand of God... Set your affections on things above, not on things of the earth." If we convention that all the time, we will sparkle.
So, once God fills us, one of two things can happen. Put the lid on the bottle.
We can keep our sparkle or... Take the lid off again and toss it to a student.
What happens when we leave the cap off a bottle of pop overnight? It loses its sparkle.
It becomes like the water again, doesn't it? No sparkle? Who wants to drink flat soda? As Christians, we want to keep our sparkle. Ask for the cap back from the student and hold it up.
If we're going to act like new creations, we have to take care to preserve our sparkle. We have to ask for God's protection.
The bottle cap is like God's protection. We have to put it on... We have to ask God for it. Put the cap on the bottle but leave it loose.
Pray, "Father, I ask that you safe our Christian sparkle. Help us to resist temptation when we're with kids who are doing things you wouldn't like..." Screw the lid on with one twist.
"Father, help us remember to speak with you every day so that you can make us stronger." Give the lid another twist.
"Use us, Father, so that others may know you because we sparkle from your love and power." Give the lid a final twist.
"Amen."
Pass out cups. And of procedure it's surely leading when you're God's new creation, that you share your sparkle with others!
Put some sprite into the cups and have a drink together to celebrate a prosperous Bible object lesson.
Bible Object Lessons for Kids: "Fizzy Faith" Bottle Cap partAll religions are feathers of the same bird (God) Tube. Duration : 7.75 Mins.All the religions in the world are the feathers of the same bird ie, God with different colours. There is only one God and there is only one universe. Similarly the man is also only one. Man should aim that one God and he should belong to all the religions in the universe. He should pick up the diamonds from all the religions and use in his spiritual path. One can have love towards the nationality. Every nation has some physical boundaries. The people who are living in that nation have that nationality. Thus there is a meaning in the nationality because it has physical sense. But in the case of religion and spiritualism there is no physical sense. Every religion belongs to every man. Therefore in religious and spiritual matters all the religions can be used. The human incarnation in every religion announces that He is the universal preacher. The message of Lord Krishna ie, Bhagavat Gita is for the entire world. The message of Jesus ie, Bible is for the entire world. The message of Mohammed is for the entire world. So there is no need of conversion of religions. Just like in science the invention of Einstein is useful for the whole world, every religious preaching is for everybody. Different scientists belonging to different countries have discovered different scientific inventions. The subject science contains all these inventions. If any invention is removed the science become discontinuous. Similarly the spiritualism consists of the preaching of the preachers belonging ...
