Acts 3 | Peter Preaches and Is Arrested | The Bible


Peter preaches repentance. He also speaks of the age of restoration preceding the Second Coming. He identifies Christ as the prophet of whom Moses spoke. Peter and John are arrested and brought before the council. Acts 3:12–26, 4:1–3 12 And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?
13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
16 And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
17 And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
18 But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.
22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
23 And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
26 Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities. 1 And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,

2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide.
4 Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.

"I Believe in Christ"

Lyrics

  1. 1. I believe in Christ; he is my King!

    With all my heart to him I’ll sing;

    I’ll raise my voice in praise and joy,

    In grand amens my tongue employ.

    I believe in Christ; he is God’s Son.

    On earth to dwell his soul did come.

    He healed the sick; the dead he raised.

    Good works were his; his name be praised.

  2. 2. I believe in Christ; oh blessed name!

    As Mary’s Son he came to reign

    ’Mid mortal men, his earthly kin,

    To save them from the woes of sin.

    I believe in Christ, who marked the path,

    Who did gain all his Father hath,

    Who said to men: “Come, follow me,

    That ye, my friends, with God may be.”

  3. 3. I believe in Christ—my Lord, my God!

    My feet he plants on gospel sod.

    I’ll worship him with all my might;

    He is the source of truth and light.

    I believe in Christ; he ransoms me.

    From Satan’s grasp he sets me free,

    And I shall live with joy and love

    In his eternal courts above.

  4. 4. I believe in Christ; he stands supreme!

    From him I’ll gain my fondest dream;

    And while I strive through grief and pain,

    His voice is heard: “Ye shall obtain.”

    I believe in Christ; so come what may,

    With him I’ll stand in that great day

    When on this earth he comes again

    To rule among the sons of men.

Acts 3 | Peter and John Heal a Man Crippled Since Birth | The Bible




More Holiness Give Me | The Tabernacle Choir


Lyrics

  1. 1. More holiness give me,

    More strivings within,

    More patience in suff’ring,

    More sorrow for sin,

    More faith in my Savior,

    More sense of his care,

    More joy in his service,

    More purpose in prayer.

  2. 2. More gratitude give me,

    More trust in the Lord,

    More pride in his glory,

    More hope in his word,

    More tears for his sorrows,

    More pain at his grief,

    More meekness in trial,

    More praise for relief.

  3. 3. More purity give me,

    More strength to o’ercome,

    More freedom from earth-stains,

    More longing for home.

    More fit for the kingdom,

    More used would I be,

    More blessed and holy—

    More, Savior, like thee.
