We finish chapter 2 and begin chapter 3 of the Book of Acts. In chapter 2, verses 42-47, after 3000 were saved following Peter's speech about Jesus and the Holy Spirit, many of the new believers stayed in Jerusalem to devote themselves to the apostles' teaching about Jesus. In doing so, they created a community of unity and sharing. We learn that the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders. In Acts chapter 3, we see Peter and John while on their way to the Jewish Temple for prayer services, they encountered a man who had been crippled since birth. He was begging for money. Peter told him: "I don’t have any silver or gold for you. But I’ll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, get up and walk!' Guess what? The crippled man "jumped up, stood on his feet, and began to walk! Then, walking, leaping, and praising God" Amen.

In this episode, we continue to look at Peter preaching to the crowd after he and his fellow Jesus followers received the Holy Spirit as promised by Jesus. Specifically, we look at verses 24-41 from Acts chapter 2. We see Peter quoting from Psalm 16:8-11 to prove to the Jewish crowd that King David prophesied about Jesus. David had written in Psalm 16 hundreds of years earlier that God would not leave His Holy One (Jesus) in the grave to rot. Peter explained to the curious crowd that David was looking into the future and speaking of the Messiah's (Jesus) resurrection. Peter declared that Jesus is the Messiah David wrote about and who was killed and raised from the dead. In fact, Peter told the crowd that he and others had personally witnessed Jesus' death and resurrection from the dead. Further, that Jesus was currently at the right hand of God. Peter told the crowd that God the Father had promised to Jesus that He would pour His Spirit upon mankind. Thus, Peter said that what the crowd was seeing was not drunk men, but men who had just experienced the infilling and indwelling of the Holy Spirit as promised by God the Father and Jesus! Peter's words pierced their hearts, and they wanted to know what they should do. Peter told them to repent and turn to God for forgiveness of their sin and receive the Holy Spirit. And 3000 did! Amen. Listen to hear the complete story and be blessed by the Word of God!

In this episode, we start chapter 2 from the Book of Acts. We cover verses 1-24. We see the Holy Spirit come to start His earthly ministry as promised by Jesus. After the Holy Spirit comes and fills Jesus' believers during Pentecost, they are empowered by the Holy Spirit to speak in languages previously unknown to the believers. A crowd of Jews who spoke different languages, who had come from different parts of the Roman Empire to Jerusalem to celebrate the Feast of Pentecost, heard the loud sound of the Holy Spirit coming. The crowd of Jews came to where they heard the sound, which was where Jesus's followers were. When the crowd arrived, they heard Jesus' followers speaking to them in their various languages (languages until then that were unknown to Jesus' followers) about the goodness of God. As a result, the crowd was amazed and perplexed. But some, as always were critical, and assumed that Jesus' followers were drunk. But Peter, now empowered by the Holy Spirit, told the crowd that Jesus' followers were not drunk. He told them that what they were witnessing was the fulfillment of a prophecy by the prophet Joel when God said in the Old Testament that He would one day pour out His Spirit upon mankind.
