Note here:
1. He was a well known lame man who begged at the gate Beautiful of the temple.v.2
2. Expecting Money he received more than he ever thought he would.v.6
3. They gave him healing in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth..v6. There is healing in the name of Jesus Christ now.
4. Immediately his feet and ankles became strong.v.7
5. The people recognised the lame beggar and were filled with wonder and amazement
6. Immediately, Peter turns their attention away from the two disciples, Peter and John, to Jesus.
Act 3:12 Peter, seeing this, spoke to the people. "Israelites," he said, "why do you wonder at this man? Or why gaze at us, as though by any power or piety of our own we had enabled him to walk?
Act 3:13 The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our forefathers, has conferred this honour on His Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up and disowned in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to let Him go.
Act 3:14 Yes, you disowned the holy and righteous One, and asked as a favour the release of a murderer.
Act 3:15 The Prince of Life you put to death; but God has raised Him from the dead, and we are witnesses as to that.
Act 3:16 It is His name-- faith in that name being the condition--which has strengthened this man whom you behold and know; and the faith which He has given has made this man sound and strong again, as you can all see.
Notes: :They preserved a murderer, a destroyer of life, and thought to destroy the Saviour, the author of life. But God raised Him from the dead, proving that in fighting against Jesus, they were fighting against God. The doctrine of Jesus Christ was thereby confirmed, and the reproach of His sufferings was rolled away.
