    ¶ "As they spoke to the people, the priests came over to them with the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees —very annoyed because they were teaching the people and proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

    Verse 4

    ¶ "But many of those who had heard the word believed, and the number, counting the men alone, grew to about five thousand." (Acts 4:4). 1. Hearing and believing. Some people interpret this to mean that faith alone is necessary to be saved. However Luke has previously recorded that "as many as received Peter’s word were baptized" (Acts 2:41).Instead of pitting Luke’s statements against each other, let's simply put them together. People were save and added to the church in Jerusalem by: 2. Hear...

    ¶ "In the morning a gathering took place in Jerusalem of their rulers, elders, and scribes. Annas the high priest was there, with Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and a full contingent of the high priest’s family. They stood Peter and John in the center of the council, and put to them the question, 'By what power, or in what name, have you done this?' " (Acts 4:5-7). 1. Gathering of Rulers The official high priest Annas was appointed by the Roman government, but the rightful high priest by Jewish l...

    ¶ "Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, 'Rulers of the people, and elders of Israel: if we are examined today about a good deed done to a crippled man, and if the question is how this man has been healed; be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead —in him this man stands here before you in perfect health.' " (Acts 4:8-10). 1. Filled with the Holy Spirit. Jesus had ma...

    Verses 11-12

    ¶ " 'This Jesus is the stone that you, the builders, rejected. He has now become the head stone of the corner. There is salvation in nobody else —nor under heaven is there given among men any other name but this by which we must be saved' " (Acts 4:11-12). 1. Rejected stone. Peter is alluding here to Psalm 118:22. The corner stone was the one from which all the foundation of a building was laid out. Jesus is the cornerstone of Israel, but its religious leaders rejected him. In doing so they r...

    ¶ "When they saw the confidence of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. They recognized that these men had been with Jesus. Furthermore, seeing the man who was healed standing with them, they were without an argument." (Acts 4:13-14). 1. Uneducated men.Peter and John were country folk. They were not men of letters; they'd had only the basic schooling. Yet here they were confounding these august scholars. 2. Recognized these men.The council...

    ¶ "However, they commanded the prisoners to wait outside and leave the council to confer in private. The council then said, 'What shall we do to these men? Because indeed a notable miracle has been done through them. This can be plainly seen by all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it. But so that this spreads no further among the people, let us warn them, that from now on they speak to nobody in this name.' " (Acts 4:15-17). 1. Sent them out. The council needed to confer, so they se...
