peter who became a mas of power golden text we ought to obey god rather than man acts 529 the lesson as a whole by h a ironside lttd approach to the lesson the power manifested in and through peter was not of himself it was not natural boldness or in herent ability while always gen erous and impulsive he proved himself to be thoroughly unrelia- able in the hour of testing he who confidently declared that he would be faithful although all others should forsake jesus broke down completely when accused by a young girl of being a follower of the nazarene but it was a very different peter who some fifty days later bore his strong and virile testimony to the risen christ and confronted the enemies of the gospel with a holy boldness that caused them to quake before him what had made the change it was the pentecostal en titlement of which the lord spoke saying ye shall receive the power of the holy spirit coming upon you and ye shall be witnesses unto me in jerusalem and judea and samaria and unto the uttermost parts of the earth acts 18 liter al rendering filled with the spirit peter drove home to the peo ple of israel the enormity of their sin in rejecting christ and giving him over to crucifixion acts 223 and empowered by the same anoint ing he wrought mighty signs and wonders in the name of the one who had triumphed over death and was now by god exalted to be a prince and a saviour this did not mean that peter was beyond any further failure for we know how grievously he fell short of be having according to the full truth of the grace of god at antioch gal 211 12 but he was never again intimidated by the enemies of the saviour whom he had thrice denied the historical setting the miracle on which the pre sent lesson is based the healing of the lame man at the gate of the temple in jerusalem took place very soon after pentecost probably only a few weeks at the most had elapsed since that great event occurred and the people were still excited and wondering about the message given on that day and events that followed in rapid succession it was in the spring probably of the year ad 30 verso by verse acts 48 peter filled with the holy ghost peters message was not in any sense merely his own he did not rely on iris own wisdom or understanding but he spoke as the spirit gave him utterance it is the privilege of every child of god today to be thus filled with the spirit in order that he may serve god acceptably in whatever circumstances he is found verses 9 10 by the name of jesus christ of nazareth doth this man stand here before you whole peter made it plain that neither john nor he claimed in themselves any peculiar power or ability to work miracles he gave all the credit and the glory to the one whom israel had rejected but white eggs wanted a

in and through those who believed on him and had been sent by him to proclaim the gospel message verse 11 this is the stone which was set at nought of you builders the reference is to psalm 11s22 where it was pro phesied that messiah would be re fused and rejected as the stone of salvation but in resurrection god would make him to be head of the corner of the new and glori ous temple composed of living stones which he was about to build 1 pet 27 our lord had used tiie same message when speak ing to the pharisees and had ap plied it to himself matt 2142 verse 12 none other name the lord jesus declared in the upper room no man cometh unto the father but by me john 14g there is no other who can save nor is any other needed for christ is all sufficient we are told else where there is one mediator between god and men the man christ jesus who gave himself a ransom for all to be testified in due time 1 tim 25 6 verse 13 they took knowledge of them that they had been with jesus the people were amazed at the remarkable way in which these uneducated fishermen preach ed the word they could but realize that the three years or more spent with jesus under his direct in struction had done more for them than any of the rabinical schools could ever have accomplished there was an assurance and au thority manifested which could only be accounted for by the fact that they knew christ not only as their teacher when he was here on earth but also as the risen christ who was guiding and dir ecting their testimony verse 14 beholding the man which was healed they could say nothing against it the for merly lame man whom they had known for so long now standing before them gave mute evidence to the reality of peters declaration verse 15 they conferred among themselves the rulers commanded the apostles to leave the council room while they con sulted privately as to what their attitude should be on their part there was no exercise of conscience nor any desire to know the truth but a firm determination to hinder the progress of the new move ment verse 16 a notable miracle hath been done we cannot deny it they recognized the fact of the miracle but failed to see in it the power of the name of jesus it would be useless to try to make the people believe that no miracle had been wrought stouffville sand gravel limited are prepared to supply your requirements of crushed

unto them rather than to obey the lord himself insisting that they must continue to declare the things which they had seen and heard they deliberately defied the rulers even though they knew they did so at the very risk of their lives the heart of the lesson in seeking to account for the stirring ministry of the apostle peter we should keep two things clearly in mind first the back ground of nis association with the lord jesus during the years of his ministry and second the en- duement with the holy spirit who came at pentecost the training he received as he listened to the teaching of jesus and observed the power of god manifested in his daily life made an indelible im pression on peters mind and help ed to form his character it was an education such as no schools of this world could ever have given him but something more than this was needed to enable him to preach the word with convicting power and holy boldness it was for this that the holy spirit came when he filled peter with his brother apostles they were lifted above merely human possibilities and en abled to proclaim the gospel con vincingly and to perform signs and wonders in the name of jesus as the spirit directed
