Opis

Acts chapter three transitions from what happened at Pentecost with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit to the early Church engaged in aggressive evangelism. Luke begins to show the early formative years of the Church as it grows from a small localized cluster to a worldwide movement of believers. He begins the chapter with a miracle which sets the stage for the preaching and persecution that follows. After this dramatic healing of a lame beggar by Peter and John, a crowd gathered at Solomon's Porch, giving Peter the opportunity to preach the Gospel. You will discover through this expositional commentary on Acts 3 that from the miracle to Peter's message Jesus was the focal point of the early church and now must be in your life. Nothing should distract you from intimacy with Him. Do not let the good or the bad, the institution or the organization, the theology or the program, the ceremony or the rules, or the emotions or the mind become a substitute for Him. Don't let anything or anyone distract you from Jesus. Come back to Him. You must be intimate with Jesus The Cross Style Commentary series combines expositional study in the Word of God with practical application for real-world living.
