The Original Revolution: Part 5

Here's Your Sign: JESUS

Acts 3:1-26

I. An Unmistakable Sign (vv. 1-10)

1. A routine hour to pray (v. 1)
2. A reasonable request (vv. 2-3)
3. An unexpected reply (vv. 4-6)
4. A comprehensive miracle (vv. 7-8 cf. v. 16)
5. An unmistakable Sign (vv. 9-10)

II. A Guilt Laying – Guilt Lifting Sermon (vv. 11-26)

1. A wow factor (vv. 10b-11)
2. A focus shift (vv. 12-13)
3. A guilt laying word (vv. 14-16)
4. A guilt lifting word (vv. 17-26)

Take-home points:

1. The Holy Spirit primarily works within routine
2. The Gospel is designed to meet both moral and situational evil (categories taken from Power Encounters by David Powlison)
3. Miraculous healing in the Bible is always a sign and always comprehensive
4. It is a fight to value spiritual healing above physical healing
5. Elevating man undoes the glory of God
6. The real Jesus comes from real redemptive history
7. Understanding Jesus was murdered unlocks the guilt of the cross
8. Ignorance of our sin and God’s holiness is grace
9. Genuine repentance will transform your shame to joy
