One Sermon Everyone Should Hear
Dr. David Davis
Acts 2:22-40
We live in a society that attempts to convince us of certain things that we must do. The television is full of commercials trying to coerce the viewing audience that a certain product is the one to buy. Auto makers try to lure us into believing that they make the finest vehicle.

If you bring yourself under the authority of the truth revealed in these statements -- you will be a changed person.

Notice - Peter didn't have to convince his audience that Jesus was real. These people were witnesses to the miracle working power of Jesus.
2. Jesus' life was arranged.
v. 23 - ''Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain.''
Jesus' death was predestined by God. Jesus' death was performed by men.
3. Jesus' resurrection was accomplished.
v. 24 - ''Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should beholden of it.''
This is a significant statement.
Who raised up Jesus from the grave? God.
You say, ''Did God push away the stone so Jesus could ...
