The Power of Pentecost◦ Fulfilled prophecy; risen Savior; Heavenly King;

forgiveness; and change.◦ This power still works today.

The book of Acts◦ Just like the apostles were tools of Christ, we also

are to be tools of Christ.◦ Examples: converting the lost; worship; and the

work of the church. Acts 2:41: First account of conversions.

Does your life attract attention?◦ What if apostles stayed in “one place” (v. 1)?◦ What kind of people do you surround yourself with

(Luke 5:31-32)?◦ Matt. 5:14-16: The light of the world.◦ Gal. 5:22-25: The fruit of the Spirit.◦ I Pet. 3:15: Can others see the hope in you?

What about the naysayers?◦ Acts 2:13: The apostles were drunk.◦ Matt. 5:3-12: Take the good with the bad.

Don’t downplay the need for salvation.◦ Acts 2:22-23, 36: Peter spoke the truth.◦ Sin has separated us from God (Isaiah 59:2).◦ False “gospels” are everywhere (Gal. 1:6-9).

The gospel plan of salvation.◦ Only one gospel that saves (Gal. 1:6-9).◦ Matt. 28:19-20; Mark 16:15-16; Acts

2:38.◦ We have died with Christ and been made alive

with Christ (Col. 2:12, 20; Rom. 6:1-14).

God does the saving.◦ The Lord adds to His body (Acts 2:47).◦ We obey, but God does the saving.◦ Who gets the credit? God or man?

There’s more after baptism.◦ Before baptism, we lived one kind of life.◦ As a Christian, we are to live a different life.◦ Acts 2:42: Devotion to Christ’s doctrine.

Bottom line: Are we allowing the Lord to work through us?
