Praxis: Practice Acts Meet for Repentance
Praxis (book of Acts) is the practice of faith in market places which in turn is a colloquial reference on how to engage both Jews and the nations in public spaces through civil discourse on the risen Messiah Jesus and the kingdom of God. This devotional commentary is divided into 30 readings for personal interaction or small group conversation with selected scriptures for each day from different biblical writers towards a cohesive devotional insight and coherent practice in this disciple practitioner series.
Is the Praxis community a new entity and a departure from the faith of Abraham, Moses, and David or a continuity and fulfilment of Old Testament Israel’s Torah demand and calling as a covenantal community in Messiah Jesus? Is suffering beatings, affliction and persecution a norm or an exception to be a disciple and witness of Jesus? Is there some significant lessons from the Eutychus’ incident falling 3 stories down and found dead after falling asleep while Paul was long in reasoning with the other disciples till late at night? How are accusations of the early disciples opposing Roman rule and heretical teachings refuted? The first century Acts community challenge us on how to be a Christian in reasoning righteousness by temperate living through suffering, not holding our souls dear in surrender to the grace of God, keeping in view the coming judgment and common life in the Spirit in penultimate reality..
