*THAT SAME JESUS*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.."* (Acts 2: 36 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
The context of Acts 2:36 is Peter's sermon on the day of Pentecost, where he addressed the crowd of Jewish people gathered in Jerusalem. Peter's message was clear: Jesus, whom they had crucified, was indeed the long-awaited Messiah, the Lord and Christ. This declaration was a bold statement, as it confronted the crowd with their complicity in Jesus' death.
The lesson from this verse is one of recognition and acknowledgment. Peter called upon the house of Israel to recognize Jesus as both Lord and Christ, acknowledging their past mistakes and accepting the truth about Jesus' identity. This recognition is not just a matter of intellectual assent but also involves a deep sense of repentance and surrender.
The implications of this verse are profound. By acknowledging Jesus as Lord and Christ, we are, in effect, surrendering our lives to His authority and lordship. This recognition is the first step towards a deeper relationship with God and a transformed life.
_MEDITATION:_
*"As we reflect on this verse, we are challenged to examine our own understanding of Jesus and our willingness to submit to His lordship."*

*BY THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear."* (Acts 2: 33 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Peter's sermon reaches its climax as he describes Jesus' exaltation to the right hand of God. This phrase, "by the right hand of God exalted," emphasizes Jesus' enthronement and His position of authority and power. Peter's audience would have understood this as a reference to Psalm 110:1, where David writes about the Messiah being seated at God's right hand.
The phrase "having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost" highlights the Father's role in sending the Holy Spirit. Jesus, now exalted, has received this promise from the Father and has poured out the Holy Spirit upon His followers. This verse underscores the Trinity's involvement in the salvation event: the Father sends the Spirit, Jesus pours out the Spirit, and the Spirit empowers believers.
The lesson from this verse is that Jesus' exaltation and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit are intimately connected. As Jesus is enthroned, He sends the Holy Spirit to empower His followers.
_MEDITATION:_
*"This emphasizes the importance of understanding the Holy Spirit's role in the life of believers and recognizing Jesus' authority and power in sending the Spirit. Believers can trust in Jesus' continued work in their lives through the Holy Spirit."*

*IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it."* (Acts 2: 23-24 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Peter's sermon takes a somber turn as he confronts his audience with their role in Jesus' crucifixion. He emphasizes that Jesus' death was not a random event, but rather it was part of God's predetermined plan. The phrase "determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God" highlights the sovereignty of God, even in the midst of human wickedness.
Despite the gravity of their sin, Peter doesn't leave his audience without hope. He declares that God raised Jesus from the dead, loosening the pains of death. This resurrection is not just a historical event, but also a theological statement: Jesus' victory over death demonstrates His power and authority. The phrase "it was not possible that he should be holden of it" emphasizes that death had no claim on Jesus.
The lesson from this verse is that God's sovereignty and humanity's sinfulness are intertwined, yet God's power and redemption ultimately triumph. Peter's message underscores the importance of acknowledging our role in Jesus' death, while also recognizing God's ultimate plan of salvation.
_MEDITATION:_
*"This passage encourages believers to trust in God's sovereignty, even in the midst of adversity, and to rejoice in Jesus' victory over death."*

*BY MIRACLES AND WONDERS AND SIGNS*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know."* (Acts 2: 22 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Peter's sermon takes a turn as he addresses his fellow Israelites, drawing their attention to Jesus of Nazareth. He emphasizes that Jesus was "approved of God" through the miracles, wonders, and signs that God performed through Him. This endorsement from God serves as a powerful validation of Jesus' ministry and message.
The phrase "in the midst of you" highlights the fact that Jesus' ministry was not some distant event, but rather it occurred in the presence of the very people Peter is addressing. The Israelites had witnessed Jesus' miracles and teachings firsthand, and Peter appeals to their personal knowledge and experience. This emphasizes the importance of eyewitness testimony and personal encounter with Jesus.
Peter's message underscores the importance of recognizing Jesus as the One sent by God, rather than just a human teacher or prophet. By acknowledging Jesus' divine approval, the Israelites (and believers today) can place their faith in Him as the Savior and Lord.
_MEDITATION:_
*"The lesson from this verse is that Jesus' credentials as the Messiah were demonstrated through His miraculous works, which were empowered by God."*

*WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved."* (Acts 2: 21 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Peter's sermon on the Day of Pentecost reaches its climax with this verse, where he emphasizes the simplicity and universality of salvation. Quoting from Joel 2:32, Peter declares that anyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. This message is a direct response to the crowd's question, "What shall we do?" (Acts 2:37), providing a clear call to action.
The phrase "whosoever shall call" underscores the inclusive nature of God's salvation. It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from, or what you've done – salvation is available to everyone. This verse eliminates any notion of exclusivity or elitism, emphasizing that God's offer of salvation is open to all people.
In this context, "calling on the name of the Lord" means more than just uttering words; it involves a genuine turning to God in faith and repentance.
_MEDITATION:_
*"Peter's message emphasizes the importance of responding to God's offer of salvation, not just intellectually, but also with a willingness to surrender one's life to Him."*

*BEFORE THAT GREAT AND NOTABLE DAY*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come."* (Acts 2: 19-20 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
The context of Acts 2:19-20 is Peter's sermon on the Day of Pentecost, where he continues to quote from Joel 2:30-31. Peter is emphasizing the significance of the events unfolding before their eyes, particularly the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. He warns his audience that before the "great and notable day of the Lord" arrives, there will be dramatic and ominous signs.
The lesson from this verse is that God's judgment and redemption are often preceded by visible signs and wonders. The text describes cosmic disturbances, including blood, fire, smoke, and celestial darkness. These signs serve as warnings, calling people to repentance and preparation for the Lord's return. Believers must now more than ever be aware of these signs and remain vigilant, living holy lives in anticipation of Christ's return.
The reference to the "great and notable day of the Lord" is a clear allusion to the Second Coming of Christ. Peter's message emphasizes the urgency of responding to God's offer of salvation before it's too late.
_MEDITATION:_
*"As believers, we must take heed of these signs and warnings, using them as opportunities to share the Gospel with others and to live lives that reflect our hope in Christ's return."*

*IT SHALL COME TO PASS*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:"* (Acts 2: 17-18 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Acts 2:17-18 is Peter's sermon on the Day of Pentecost, where he quotes Joel 2:28-32 to explain the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Peter emphasizes that this event marks the beginning of the "last days," a period characterized by God's Spirit being poured out on all people.
The lesson from this verse is that God's Spirit is available to everyone, regardless of age, gender, or social status. The text specifically mentions sons, daughters, young men, old men, servants, and handmaidens, indicating that the Holy Spirit's empowerment is inclusive and democratized. This challenges traditional notions of spiritual hierarchy and emphasizes the equal access to God's presence and power.
The outpouring of the Holy Spirit enables believers to prophesy, see visions, and dream dreams. This implies that the Spirit's empowerment is not just for personal edification but also for ministry and service.
_MEDITATION:_
*"As believers, we are called to be vessels of the Holy Spirit, using our gifts and abilities to build up the Body of Christ and extend God's kingdom."*
