  1. “What doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?” Micah 6:8 Walking With God … as ‘extreme’ Christians

  2. Extreme Christians • They went to church too much

  3. Acts 2:42-46 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers . . . continuing daily with one accord in the temple . . . NASV And they were continually devoting themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer . . . day by day continuing with one mind in the temple . . .

  4. Extreme Christians • They went to church too much • They gave too much

  5. Acts 2:45 - NASV And they began selling their property and possessions, and were sharing them with all, as anyone might have need. Acts 4:34-35 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, and laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.

  6. Extreme Christians • They went to church too much • They gave too much • They preached too pointedly

  7. Acts 2:22-23 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:

  8. Acts 2:37-38 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

  9. Acts 3:17-19 And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers. But . . . repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out . . .

  10. Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

  11. Extreme Christians • They went to church too much • They gave too much • They preached too pointedly • They wouldn’t compromise

  12. Acts 4:18-31 And (the Jewish council) called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus. But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye. For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard. So when they had further threatened them, they let them go . . . And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them . . . and they spake the word of God with boldness.

  13. Acts 5:28-29 Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us. Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

  14. Acts 5:40-42 . . . and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name. And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.

  15. Extreme Christians • They went to church too much • They gave too much • They preached too pointedly • They wouldn’t compromise

  16. 2 Corinthians 5:12-16 For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God . . . for the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all . . . that they who live should no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.
