Throughout the book of Acts, various questions are asked of or by the apostles. Today we explore several of these questions and reflect on answers – those given in the text and those we might consider giving if these were asked by or of us. Questions are taken from Acts 1:6; Acts 1:10-11; Acts 2:7-8, 12; Acts 2:37; Acts 3:12; Acts 4:7; and Acts 4:15-16. Additional scriptures referenced include Jeremiah 23:1-8; Ezekiel 36:16-30; Ezekiel 37:21-28; Acts 1:7-8; 1 Corinthians 14:2, 13-15, 21-22; and Acts 26:10.
