In this sermon Continuing in His Steps, Jesus walked on this earth for more than thirty years, died at Calvary, and rose again to redeem mankind. The Book of Acts is a carry-over of what Jesus began to do. In the Gospels He walked on the earth, doing good. In Acts, He continued His work through the apostles who followed in His steps. Are you actively continuing in Jesus’ footsteps?  Jesus knew His purpose when He came to the earth. He came to seek and to save the lost, and to build His church. To ensure the church’s success, Jesus spent quality time in the leadership development of twelve chosen men. When He returned to heaven, He left a handful of qualified leaders to carry on the vital tasks He had started. Jesus knew His work would not fail because He had trained leaders. From the beginning, Jesus told these leaders He would not always be with them. He trained the most successful leadership team of all times. As a result, once their leader departed, the church continued to experience tremendous revival and growth, as they followed His example by effectively training other leaders. Leaders today should follow the same pattern.
