Acts 4:1 - 37
ActsSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg explains in this analysis of Acts 4 that the chapter followed Peter's sermon, which resulted in many conversions and a rise in the number of disciples to 5,000 men. The rejection of Jesus by the Jewish leaders is compared to the rejection of a cornerstone in a building, and Peter refers to Jesus as the cornerstone of the Church, the true temple indwelt by the Holy Spirit. The communal life of the early church is highlighted again with the examples of Barnabas and Ananias and Sapphira, while the apostles prayed for boldness instead of protection against the threats they were receiving.
