Lot’s of song
Lot’s of poems
Saying:
We ain’t got no money but at least we have love.”
Similar lyric was spoken
2000 years ago.
Acts 3:1–6 (ESV)
Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.
And a man lame from birth was being carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple that is called the Beautiful Gate to ask alms of those entering the temple.
--
Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive alms.
And Peter directed his gaze at him, as did John, and said, “Look at us.”
And he fixed his attention on them, expecting to receive something from them.
But Peter said, “I have no silver and gold,
--
but what I do have I give to you.
In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!”
Put yourself in his shoes.
Life is tough.
lame from birth
never walked
temple begger
everyone saw him
recognized
always there
some judged him
some pitied him
few befriended him
Saw Peter and John
please...
“spare some change.”
When they said..
“look at us...”
He was sure,
they will give him money.
Their next words,
“I have no silver or gold.”
“I ain’t got no money.”
Immediately man
head down.
rejected again.
hopeless future.
They continue talking...
“but what I do have I give to you.”
oh no… what now?
lecture
joke
unwanted “help”
All is fears were wrong.
He got much more
than he bargained for.
“In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!”
He gave him
unspoken request
silent desire
un-hoped for solution
yearning of heart.
Dormant muscles
latent ligaments
inoperative tendon
spring to action!
They work!!!
Can you imagine the joy?
Man is jumping!!!
Praise God.
Temple
normally quiet
normally solemn
soft worship
Interrupted by
shouts of joy.
Jumping...
Just can’t stop jumping
feet never felt movents
So excited!!!
They all recognized him.
they knew him.
every day...
Begger at Merced Walmart
Crowd gathers
everyone in awe...
People don’t know what to think...
Acts 3:12–16 (ESV)
And when Peter saw it he addressed the people: “Men of Israel, why do you wonder at this, or why do you stare at us, as though by our own power or piety we have made him walk?
--
The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, the God of our fathers, glorified his servant Jesus, whom you delivered over and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release him.
--
But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you, and you killed the Author of life, whom God raised from the dead.
To this we are witnesses.
--
And his name—by faith in his name—has made this man strong whom you see and know, and the faith that is through Jesus has given the man this perfect health in the presence of you all.
Ouch...
those words sting a little.
How was this man healed?
They messiah
that you killed
has healed him...
Not terribly far fetched.
Everyone knew
Jesus acts of healing.
Jesus disciples
same gift.
Here is problem...
in order to
celebrate with lame man
