Exactly. People will look at Peter and Paul as they're listening to you read and they'll say, well, yeah, they're super apostles. And that's Paul, that's Peter, but I'm so-and-so from Omaha. I'm so-and-so from Pittsburgh. And you gotta remember, Paul was not aware that he was Paul.

I mean, he wasn't saying, in light of the fact that people are gonna be building churches in my name, I would say to you, no, what did he do for a living? He was a tent maker. He was a tent maker who was on a mission from Jesus, and he exhibited every characteristic that we would want to exhibit, the tenacity and the courage and boldness and the love.

And so we can, as you said, we can learn so much from our older brothers and sisters. But one thing to really pay attention to as you are going through the book of Acts is to pay attention to the reading in the context of that church exploding in the early church and how the church is changing and adapting as it continues to grow and the common problems that they face, the leadership issues.

We can learn a lot about the leadership of the early church. And I would say that really for the first time in our journey together, Father, the Holy Spirit now is really center stage. Not that he wasn't before. I mean, the Trinity is the Trinity, but now this is the age... of the Holy Spirit.

We were in the age of Jesus, the second person of the Trinity, our Father in the Old Testament, and now the Holy Spirit is going to usher us in. And I love what it says.

Not predicted, I mean, he told us before that he was going to go to the Father, but he was going to send a helper to And that helper would guide us into all truth. And he did. And he continues to. In that word helper in Greek, paraclete is the one who comes alongside of us.
