The Christian's Encouragement to Seek and Do Good
Acts 10:38
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good…


I. ILLUSTRATE THE VIEW OF CHRIST'S CHARACTER GIVEN IN THE TEXT.

1. The kind of good which He dispensed.

2. The extent of good which He thus dispensed.

3. The great diligence which He exercised in doing good.

4. The spirit of compassion with which He did all this good.

5. The unwearied patience and perseverance with which He continued to do good.

II. APPLICATION:

1. You are thus instructed and encouraged to seek good from Christ.

2. You are thus instructed and engaged to do good as Christ did. The shortest description and the surest mark of every true Christian is this, to be a doer of good.

(James Brewster.)
