Peter's first sermon after Pentecost demonstrates the power of Scripture in proclaiming Christ, as he uses Old Testament passages to prove Jesus is the promised Messiah.
• Peter quotes Psalm 16 to show David prophesied Christ's resurrection a thousand years earlier
• David couldn't have been speaking about himself since his tomb and remains were still present
• Jesus could not be held by death because Scripture had foretold his resurrection
• Psalm 110 (the most quoted Psalm in the New Testament) predicted Christ's ascension and exaltation
• The apostles consistently grounded their understanding of Jesus in the Old Testament Scriptures
• Experience matters but isn't the foundation—Scripture provides the authoritative basis for faith
• The Holy Spirit transformed Peter from one who denied Christ to a bold proclaimer
• We need both Old and New Testaments to fully understand God's revelation
• Like Peter, we should anchor our hope in the Scriptures, "as to a lamp shining in a dark place"
Join us Wednesday night as our fall ministries kick off! Kids Club, Community Groups, and Student Ministry all begin this week. Also mark your calendars for Movie in the Village on September 20th—a perfect opportunity to invite friends and neighbors for a no-pressure evening of fun.
