   Light from the Old Testament upon the Acts 10: A Disturbing and Doctrinal Beginning

   Acts 5:1-11, a very difficult passage, teaches us about the importance of unity, truth, and the fear of the LORD. It also teaches us about the mysterious nature of the Holy Trinity. We look to Joshua 7; Matthew 9:4, Psalm 94:9/LXX 83:10, and 2 Cor 6:14-7:1 for light on this passage, as well as to the Church Fathers who used it to teach about the living God.

   Light from the Old Testament Upon the Acts 9: Praying and Living as One

   This week we consider the prayer of the community and their life together as described by Luke in Acts 4:23-36. For light upon this intriguing vignette of the early Church, we look to passages in Exodus 16, Psalm 2, Psalm 145 LXX / 146 Hebrew, Nehemiah 9:6, and Revelation 10:6. The creating God calls His people into a unity that mirrors the generous life of the Holy Trinity.

   Light from the Old Testament Upon the Acts 8: Humility and Boldness

   We look today at the result of the healing of the paralytic and the trial of the apostles Peter and John before the Jewish leaders, seeing Acts 4:1-22 in the light of Exodus 34:29-35; Deuteronomy 13:2-4; Psalm 118; Isaiah 43:11, 45:21-23; Luke 20:1-17; 2 Corinthians 4:4-6; and Philippians 2:5-11. God uses the humility of the fishermen to bring 5000 men (with their families) to the LORD, and makes them “most wise” in their hour of trial.
