Act 2:22 Men, Israelites, hear these words. Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by powerful works, and wonders and miracles, which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know
Interpretation:
Peter was declaring the facts about Jesus, to prove the point of who He is (God in the flesh) and what He has done (died for their sin and made a way for them to be with Him for eternity). That is the key question.. Who is Jesus? That is the ultimate question! That is the determining factor of our eternal destination.. Heaven or Hell? and it is not just a recognition of who He is, or just consent of the mind. We must learn about Him and get to know Him and obey Him. If He is God how can we not give our selves to Him? We were created for Him! So???? Who is Jesus to you???? He is either a Liar, a Lunatic, or LORD?
Application:
I want to get back to the basics.. That is.. it is all about Jesus, He is why I am here and what I am here for. I want my life to be consumed by Him. I pray God that you would give me the strength to be who you created me to be. To be bold and Holy and loving just like you are.
Getting back to basics is a great idea. What exactly does that look like for you?
