RE: The Gospel of ACT

in #reliquary6 years ago (edited)

In this chapter, we read the limitation that you want to impose on the disciples of the Lord, through the arrest they receive from the head of the temple guard, so that they do not continue doing what the holy spirit was working on them. .
It is evident that in the OT only the Holy Spirit received those who were the object of a special call from God or anointed by the Lord, but under the new covenant to all believers the promise of the Father is offered to them. The active presence of the Holy Spirit in these men was evident, then, their performance was not static; hence, Luke describes the permanent bond of Peter with the power of the Holy Spirit with the same words he used to refer to his initial experience, to be filled with the Holy Spirit.
In this order of ideas, it is important to highlight what the church's performance was when the persecutors tried to extirpate the Christian movement.
The Christians resorted to prayer! Often, things that threaten to suffocate or destroy the church become the means of their preservation and advancement.
The controversy that developed over the occurrence of the miracle unleashed the persecution, in the same way, skeptics debate the relationship of miracles in Christianity.
.It is also important to say that Peter's affirmation that there is no salvation in anyone else, was Peter's way of telling all who heard him that the only way to salvation was the gospel through Jesus Christ.
