This week, Dudley brings us his Monthly Message, Steven's Gospel, and in it he continues the Apostolic Gospel series by examining Stephen's powerful message in Acts 7 and uncovering the core themes of the Gospel of Jesus. Through a sweeping overview of Scripture, he shows how the story of Israel finds its fulfillment in Christ and how the Kingdom of God arrived through Jesus' life, death, resurrection, and ascension.Dudley traces the biblical patterns found in figures like Abraham, Joseph, and Moses, revealing how each points to Jesus as the promised Deliverer. He also explores Stephen's bold confrontation with the religious leaders, demonstrating how the early church proclaimed the gospel with clarity, courage, and dependence on the Holy Spirit.Along the way, he challenges modern distortions such as the Prosperity Gospel and highlights why true repentance remains central to the apostolic message. Drawing from the Book of Acts and touching on themes related to the Last Days, this conversation invites believers to rediscover the gospel that transformed the first-century world—and still carries God's power to transform lives today.We pray this message will encourage, challenge, and transform.As always, we invite you to share it with someone who needs it.  Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

IntroductionThroughout church history, God's people have struggled with a persistent temptation: looking to the visible means of grace rather than the invisible power behind those means. We can think that the effectiveness of the gospel depends upon the piety of the minister. Certainly, a minister needs to have a piety that rests in the Lord. The minister needs to believe the gospel message. However, we also need to see that the human vessels are the means that God uses to build his church. We are called to be faithful to our God, but it is our God who nourishes and builds his church through his ordinary means. The Human Tendency to Look to MenWhen the lame man was healed at the Beautiful Gate, the man and the crowds did not immediately recognize the source of his healing. Instead, the man clung to Peter and John, looking to these apostles as the source of life and power. This response reveals a fundamental human pattern: we naturally gravitate toward the visible and tangible. We think that human piety makes God powerful. Rather, it is God's power that cultivates human piety. Peter immediately corrects this misunderstanding, asking why they stare at him and John as if the healing came through their own godliness or power. Peter knows that it is not in his power, but in the Lord Jesus Christ. The crowds had witnessed a miracle and immediately assumed that the men performing it must possess extraordinary holiness. The signs do not testify to the man's piety, but to the man's credibility. The apostles make explicit that they did not heal the man. Their ability to heal is only because Christ has been raised from the dead, and they are sent as his witnesses. We see this same thing with Moses at the exodus. The sign testifies to his authority rather than his personal piety. This tendency to trust in the man persists in our own day whenever we find ourselves drawn to charismatic personalities or assuming that a minister's effectiveness correlates with his personal piety.Peter's rebuke reminds us that true faith looks past the clay vessel to the treasure within, recognizing that the power belongs to God alone. The minister is merely a conduit, not the source. The minister merely preaches the gospel and is not the author of life himself.The Promised Messiah RevealedPeter redirects the crowd's attention from the apostles to the "Author of Life.” He reminds the crowd that it is Jesus Christ, whom they had denied and sent to death. This title, servant, is drawn from Isaiah's Suffering Servant songs. Peter identifies Christ as the one who not only creates life but restores it. Christ is the suffering servant who overcomes the consequences of the fall and brings humanity from death to life. Peter boldly declares that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, whom Israel rejected because He did not fit their theological system. Peter's point is that Jesus Christ is the very one foretold by the prophets. His mission is to suffer before entering His glory.The tragedy of Israel's rejection becomes clear when we understand what they rejected: not merely a teacher or miracle-worker, but the Author of Life Himself. They chose Barabbas, a revolutionary and murderer. They chose the very man who did what they accused Christ of doing. They preferred a Messiah who fit their expectations, one who is a political liberator, and denied the Suffering Servant who would bear his people's sins. Peter's point is that the Messiah's suffering was not an unfortunate detour but the very fulfillment of God's eternal purpose. The resurrection confirms that Jesus of Nazareth is indeed the prophet greater than Moses whom God promised to raise up. The Gospel InvitationWe would expect Peter to dismiss the crowd and tell them to go home. They are not worthy of the Messiah's work. Peter exposed the crowd's sin and ignorance. Despite their failure, Peter extends a remarkable invitation: repent and turn to Christ for the forgiveness of sins. This call to repentance is not a demand for perfected righteousness but a call to submit to the Messiah for life. We see the Messiah as the sole sacrifice for sins. The Messiah is the life-giving power that transforms our mindset and orientation to turn to God rather than away from him, as we are naturally inclined to do without the Holy Spirit. Peter knows the grace of restoration personally. Remember that this is the same Peter who denied Christ three times, who was questioned by the risen Lord on the shores of Galilee, and who was restored despite his failure. Yes, and it was an awkward conversation. However, Christ is reassuring Peter that His grace is sufficient. Peter knows firsthand that the gospel invitation is extended not to the worthy but to the weary. Peter knows that he failed, but he proceeds in the confidence that the Lord upholds him until the end. Peter knows his need for a redeemer. The beauty of this invitation lies in its promise: sins wiped out, times of refreshment from the Lord, and the sending of the Christ who has been appointed for Israel. Peter emphasizes that this promise extends to all whom God calls, far beyond the immediate audience. The prophet, like Moses, continues to speak, and those who heed him find life. Peter gives a warning: those who refuse this prophet will be cut off from the people. Peter also gives the assurance that those who turn to Christ in faith and repentance find their sins forgiven and their hearts renewed. The gospel is not a call to admire the apostles or aspire to their spiritual achievements, but a call to find life in Christ alone.ConclusionThe apostles do not seek the people's worship. No, the apostles point us to the One who is worthy of worship. Christ, the Author of Life. Yes, the second person of the Trinity has done the Father's work. The Father and the Son send out the Spirit to equip and empower God's people to stand firm in the storms of this age. The one God who has been faithful to his people confirms the prophetic promise in Christ. Our best spiritual achievements only manifest themselves in the power of our Lord's redemptive mercy. We are called to find our identity not in our own significance but in our Redeemer. We live under His authority rather than measuring ourselves against human standards. When we are tempted to trust in what our eyes see, we are called to walk by the eyes of faith. We are tempted to trust in the eloquence of the preacher, our Christian growth, our performance, but the call is to bow the knee in service to the One and only Triune God who calls us into his presence. The power that healed the lame man, that raised Christ from the dead, and that continues to work in His people today is the same power that calls us to bow the knee to Jesus Christ. Let us find our contentment in Him alone.

IntroductionThere is a question that lurks underneath in the book of Acts. What happens when Christ is gone? Does he still work on His people, or are we abandoned in this world by a frustrated redeemer? Luke's Gospel lays out the ministry of Christ on this earth. Acts lays out the ministry of Christ after his ascension into heaven. The Spirit has been given to the church, but how do we know that the Spirit really ties us to Christ and works out our redemption in Christ?I. Their ReactionThe crowd's anguish is not performance. These are people who, not long ago, stood in Pilate's courtroom and chanted to crucify Christ. Peter does not let them appeal to peer pressure. They cannot defend themselves by saying they were victims of mob mentality. He addresses them as a group and individually: you all did this. Peter understands this kind of guilt personally. He is the man who looked at Christ when he denied Christ the third time. Peter also knows the awkward breakfast where Christ asks Peter three times if Peter loves him. Peter is not rebuked, but commissioned to care for Christ's people. And that is precisely why Peter is the right man to preach this sermon. The crowd is cut to the heart. This is a stabbing pain. This leads them to ask the question: What shall we do? This is a vulnerable question. On one side, it reflects genuine contrition where they want to make this right. On the other hand, it carries a dangerous temptation: the hope that maybe they can balance the ledger themselves. The reality is, there is no way for them to undo their sin in their own strength. II. Peter's SolutionPeter does not cite Deuteronomy 19 to condemn them. This is a real option. Moses prescribed that false witnesses receive the very punishment they sought for another. These people falsely accused Christ and handed him over to death. They bore false testimony against Christ. Peter could have called for a mass crucifixion. This would be the legal way to make it right. They wanted Christ to die on a cross, and so they could die on the cross. Instead: “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”Repentance here is not simply a change of opinion. It is a reorientation of the whole self. It is adjusting convictions to align with the Lord's purpose. And notice the scope of the promise Peter gives them: "The promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off." Peter is making a deliberate echo of Genesis 17:7, of the covenant God made with Abraham and his household. The community is set apart by the Spirit, and we would expect the Spirit to be present in the covenant community. The church is a covenant people, structured like a family, with children included in its promises. This is how it has always been since the Lord gave his first promise in Genesis 3:15. Baptism does not save, but it is the designation of a community set apart in Christ. Baptism is the sign of the people who have passed through the sea or the flood. It is the sign that the Spirit dwells in the midst of God's covenant community. III. The Church Continuing: Luke tells us that three thousand are added to the fellowship of believers. This is amazing that this one sermon leads to such a commitment. We learn how this community functions: they devote themselves to the apostles' teaching, to fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to prayer.The word devoted implies a continual commitment to the Apostles' teaching. They are going to learn more and more about the implications of the Gospel. They hear the Gospel, but they do not definitively know the Gospel. The Gospel is not a one-and-done message. We might be able to say it, but living it out is the Christian struggle. They also devote themselves to the fellowship of believers. The church family is not just casual fellowship. The community is members like two people in a business venture (Luke 5:10). This means bearing one another's burdens, contributing when others have a need, and a true commitment to one another. One is not on the outside looking in. The breaking of bread is communion of the saints. This would include the sacrament of communion, but also the sharing in the fellowship with one another. They share the common commitment to the devotion to the apostles' teaching. The fellowship also continues to pray for one another. This is how the community bears with each other. The community is committed to seeing their fellow sojourner arrive complete in the goal of heaven. ConclusionPeter preaches a sermon that cuts these people to the heart. Peter is a hypocrite who denied Christ three times. However, the Lord still uses him. It is not because Peter is so eloquent, but because the Spirit works through the gospel. The Spirit comes to dwell within his people. We know that Christ has not left us, and he continues to work on us. We raise our families in the Lord. We sit under apostolic preaching that we will never exhaust. We bear one another's burdens. We pray. And we know that the gates of hell will not prevail against the church because the Lord who adds to his church is the Lord who has already overcome.Let us be a people devoted to the apostolic teaching.

The Apostle Paul closes his second letter to the Corinthians with an incredible greeting from the Triune God. Paul is writing to a church that is on the verge of denying the Apostolic Gospel, but Paul still greets them in the blessings of redemption. Paul does not just say the names of the Godhead, but he gives the blessings of our redemption that are given to us by our God.

There were people in Corinth who did not believe and teach the authentic Christian doctrine of the resurrection of the body. Paul addresses this cardinal doctrine in 1 Corinthians chapter 15.

Larry Trotter, a pastor, missionary, and evangelist addresses the class. He notes that ministry success is a mixture of biblical principles, trial and error, prudence, providence, and perseverance. The most important thing is do evangelism. It is important to put yourself in situations for evangelism and to just keep going. What is the Gospel? Consider the Apostolic Gospel. In Acts 2:14 we read, “But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them: ‘Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words.’” Explore Acts 2:22-24,Acts 2:29-33, Acts 2:36, Acts 3:12-16, and Acts 3:18. Also we read in Acts 3:26, “God, having raised up his servant, sent him to you first, to bless you by turning every one of you from your wickedness.” Consider Acts 4:8-12, Acts 7:51-53, and Acts 8:35. Finally, we read in Acts 8:32-33, “Now the passage of the Scripture that he was reading was this: ‘Like a sheep he was led to the slaughter and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he opens not his mouth. In his humiliation justice was denied him. Who can describe his generation? For his life is taken away from the earth.’”
