Acts 31-91 Now Peter and John went up together
into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the
ninth hour. 2 And a certain man lame from his
mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily
at the gate of the temple which is called
Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into
the temple
7
Acts 31-93 Who seeing Peter and John about to
go into the temple asked an alms. 4 And Peter,
fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look
on us. 5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting
to receive something of them.
8
Acts 31-96 Then Peter said, Silver and gold
have I none but such as I have give I thee In
the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and
walk. 7 And he took him by the right hand, and
lifted him up and immediately his feet and ankle
bones received strength.
9
Acts 31-98 And he leaping up stood, and walked,
and entered with them into the temple, walking,
and leaping, and praising God. 9 And all the
people saw him walking and praising God
10
Acts 45-125 And it came to pass on the morrow,
that their rulers, and elders, and scribes, 6
And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and
John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the
kindred of the high priest, were gathered
together at Jerusalem.
11
Acts 45-127 And when they had set them in the
midst, they asked, By what power, or by what
name, have ye done this? 8 Then Peter, filled
with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of
the people, and elders of Israel,
12
Acts 45-129 If we this day be examined of the
good deed done to the impotent man, by what means
he is made whole 10 Be it known unto you all,
and to all the people of Israel, that by the name
of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified,
whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth
this man stand here before you whole.
13
Acts 45-12 11 This is the stone which was set at
nought of you builders, which is become the head
of the corner. 12 Neither is there salvation in
any other for there is none other name under
heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
14
Acts 413Now when they saw the boldness of Peter
and John, and perceived that they were unlearned
and ignorant men, they marvelled and they took
knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.
15

The word inthe Greek New Testament isIDIOTOS
21
They noticed that these guys were idiots and
they marveled they knew these menhad been with
Jesus
22
LETS SWITCH GEARS!
23
Many people cometo God today, to eliminate pain
or rid themselves of trouble
(thats not reality)
24
Jesus came to save us from our sins
25
He did not die to make us safe and free from pain
or trouble
26
HE DID IT TOSAVE US FROM OUR SIN!
27
Jesus did not call a single person froma
religious sect tobe His disciple
28
Jesus specializes in using those who are insecure
and who think they arejust not good enough
29
1 Corinthians 125-2925 Because the foolishness
of God is wiser than men and the weakness of God
is stronger than men. 26 For ye see your
calling, brethren, how that not many wise men
after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble,
are called
30
1 Corinthians 125-2927 But God hath chosen the
foolish things of the world to confound the wise
and God hath chosen the weak things of the world
to confound the things which are mighty
31
1 Corinthians 125-2928 And base things of the
world, and things which are despised, hath God
chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring
to nought things that are 29 That no flesh
should glory in his presence.
32
Jesus is looking for people who are still stupid
enough to believe that all things are possible
with God!
33
How did Peter go from denial and deep
discouragement

• To having a free fearless confidence
• To having an uninhibited and unreserved
  manner
• To causing even the religious elite to marvel
• To living his life in such a manner that
  people knew he had been with Jesus
