What the earliest Christians believed is of great significance if one is looking for the most essential cause of the growth of this community of faith called “the Way,” presented in Acts of Apostles. The conversions of the early Christians came not from the miraculous manifestations of the apostles of Christ; rather, they came from the message of God, the story of Jesus called the gospel - the good news that the long awaited Messiah had come. The long awaited Anointed One was Jesus of Nazareth and his story is called by Paul, “the power of God unto salvation,” (Rom 1:16). The evangelism of the early church was all about this story and their evangelistic endeavors consisted of “Telling the Story” and letting the power intrinsic within that story do it’s work of transfroming the listener.
