Mission Unstoppable: The Name Has Power

In Acts 3 we have the healing of the crippled man, who was lame from birth and more than 40 years old (4:22). This healing has many parallels with the testy of the crippled man at the pool of Bethesda in John 5. The crippled man represents Israel and their inability to walk before their God. Peter commands the lame man to fix his gaze on them, which he does expecting alms. The crippled man receives far greater -he receives healing and discipleship. And walking, and leaping, and praising God he enters the templewith Peter and John. Remarkable words of witness follow with the testimony of Peter that there is noother name given under heaven by which salvation can come than our Lord Jesus Christ. Buddhism, Hinduism and all other isms cannot save. Our Lord was the stone rejected by men, but chosen and precious to God (Psalm 118:22). Peter outlines in verses 19-26 what they must do. The rulers sendofficers in chapter 4 to arrest Peter and John. Note that the number of disciples had now reached 5,000. They were examined by the Counsel and commanded to refrain from preaching Christ Jesus. TheApostles' response is that: "We cannot cease from doing what the Almighty has commanded us". Peter and John are threatened and released. Upon joining their fellow believers, the two Apostles together withtheir assembled brothers praise the LORD and in prayer speak of what had just happened as being a fulfilment of Psalm 2. Their Sovereign's response to their prayer is a shaking of the house they were in. God is further demonstrating His power in support of their testimony. This was given as yet anotherendorsement by their God of His guarantee to support his ecclesia's faithful testimony. The spirit of unity and community is spoken of in verses 32-37. Oh, for such a spirit among believers today!Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow

2 Chronicles 24 tells us that Joash was 7 years old when he begins to reign and that he rules for 40 years. Jehoiadah chose two wives for Joash and the king then produces sons and daughters. Joash decides to repair the temple and urges the unresponsive Levites to collect funds in the cities of Judah. The Levites had been impoverished by the ravages of Athaliah. A chest is made and the redemption tax of the Law of Moses is reinstated. The tax was collected in a specially made and dedicated chest. When the chest was full it was emptied and craftsmen who were employed to repair the temple and refurnish its utensils were paid from this box. No account was required of the tradesmen who dealt faithfully. At 130 years of age the faithful Jehoiadah dies and is buried and honoured in Jerusalem. Tragically, after the high priest's death the princes abandon their God and again turn to serve idols. Jehoiadah's son Zechariah condemns this evil and was stoned in the Temple court by Joash's command (this may be the incident referred to by our Lord Jesus Christ in Matthew 23 verses 34-36). At the end of the year the Syrian army comes against Judah and at that time Joash's servants slay him as recompense for the evil done to Zechariah. The people of Judah replaced Joash with Amaziah Joash's son. Daniel 5 occurs in BC537 - the night Babylon fell to the Medo-Persians, Babylon is ruled by Belshazzar the son of Nabonidus who is on an expedition and is absent from his city. Babylon is suffering under the dissolute rule of Belshazzar. The Babylonians believed their city to be impregnable. However, the mode of its capture and the name of the victorious general were all told in the prophecy of Isaiah 44 verses 26-45:2 - read aloud, pause and ponder. Belshazzar, Babylon's deputy ruler in the absence of his father Nabonidus seeks to desecrate the vessels that had been taken from Yahweh's temple in Jerusalem. Whilst in the process of a drunken feast honouring the Chaldean gods a mysterious hand comes and writes upon the wall. The hand covers the writing. Belshazzar becomes incontinent due to fear. When the king's wise men cannot read the writing the queen mother asks for Daniel, who was known as Belteshazzar. Daniel castigates king Belshazzar and spells out the lessons that the Almighty had taught to Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar's grandfather. The hand is removed and Daniel reads the Aramaic text and interprets the writing: "Mene, Mene, Tekel, Parsin" ESV Read the meaning of those words in verses 26-28. The Aramaic gematria (assigning numerical values to letters and words) of the expression above is 2,520. Interestingly this is the time period which had been prophesied to Nebuchadnezzar for the kingdom of men in Daniel 4:16, 23-25. Daniel is promoted as promised by Belshazzar and king Belshazzar slain by the Persians. The Babylonian Empire was overthrown by Cyrus in the year BC 537 as Isaiah the prophet had prophesied in chapter 45 verses 1-6.

The Book Of Acts: To the Ends of the Earth (Week 7: Acts 3:1-11) by North Valley Church

In Acts 3, Peter used God's gift of healing to allow God to restore a lame man. Fr. Mike reminds us that God gives us gifts so he can be known in the world and all great miracles are attributed to the name of Jesus. Fr. Mike also tells us why our suffering matters, and how God wastes nothing. Today's readings are Acts 3, Romans 4-5, and Proverbs 27:1-3. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

The miracle and the message go together here. While the miracle was meant to combat the suffering of the lame man, and blessed him greatly, it pointed to even more than the healing itself. It pointed to the Messiah's Glory,  The Moment to Come, The Greater Need, The Grief of the Suffering Servant. Let's look at these four truths by connecting the miracle to the message.

Whole Church, Whole Earth: The Restoration of All Things

Have you ever had a day that didn't go as planned?

Acts 3:17-23 is part of Peter's message following the healing of the lame man. He acknowledges that the people and their leaders acted in ignorance when they rejected Jesus, but he calls them to repent so their sins may be wiped out and times of refreshing may come. Peter says Jesus is the promised prophet like Moses, and warns that anyone who does not listen to him will be cut off from God's people. How does resurrection invite us all back towards the cycles of death, resurrection, and new life continually as we are confronted with our own ignorance time and time again? ---------- Click here to access resources for supporting immigrants: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1G9suVgJsS8X6TdH6ec2TBRKTz3dCqzQ2dPzUor4TKHc/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.ejsud9n02yg8 Thank you for joining us today!

Apostolic Attending (Acts 3:1-10) | 100525 by One Ancient Hope Presbyterian Church

The gospel is the truth that changes everything. In Acts 3, after the healing of the lame man, Peter preaches boldly that Jesus is the promised Messiah. From this passage we see that the truth of the gospel reveals God's power, confronts our guilt, offers real hope, and calls us to repentance and submission.

The book of Acts, also called the Acts of the Apostles, spotlights the fulfillment of the Great Commission. This powerful book was written by the Apostle Luke who also wrote the Gospel of Luke.   Join Jerry as he walks through this book and recounts the spread of Christianity from Jerusalem to Judea, Samaria and the surrounding world. You will be encouraged by the power of the Holy Spirit at work in the lives of many who were transformed through hearing the gospel and witnessing of miracles.

Jesus taught the disciples that the Holy Spirit would be given to bear witness about him (John 15:26). That day has come. Acts 3 begins with a healing miracle, but quickly turns into a sermon about Jesus of Nazareth. The Holy Spirit is active in the healing, the preaching, and the reception of the message by those who heard it. But not all submitted themselves to the Spirit and the word. And so, the opposition begins. Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your heart, but believe. Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God's grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.

Acts 3 teaches that miracles in Scripture have both power and purpose—not as ends in themselves but as signs pointing to the Messiah and the greater miracle of transformed hearts. The lame man at the Beautiful Gate represents all of us: desiring nearness to God but unable to achieve it through our own efforts. When Peter says "In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk," he demonstrates that we become conduits of God's power, not the source—pointing people to Christ, not ourselves.

After the Lord healed a man lame from birth, Peter announced the gospel to the crowd along with the promised blessings for those who would repent of their rejection of Jesus and believe in him.

Last week, we missed a moment that was human and needed the gospel. So, we'll address and explore that in this sermon. We'll also see that the book of Acts is both comfortable with miracles and is obsessed with sharing the gospel — a powerful reminder and encouragement for us.  

Have you ever experienced something and later realized you'd been set up? That's exactly what's about to happen to Peter and John. They're on their way to the temple to pray and they come across a lame man begging for money. What happens at the Beautiful Gate served to give the people a vivid example of the presence and the power of The Holy Spirit.
