Acts 3:1-26
How To Live A More Interesting Life
1. Have some habits, v. 1-10
2. Know your history, v. 11-16
On the Cross two things happen:
a) God establishes universal guilt
b) God demonstrates substitutionary atonement
Contextualization is the process of considering something in relation to the situation in which it happens or exists.
3. End with hope, v. 17-26
a) God’s faithfulness gives us a foundation for our faith, v. 18
“Today I began reading the Bible. Something I’ve never done. I believe this is the only truth left here in earth. Maybe the only truth there ever was. Everyone else has turned to nothing but deception and lies. All of it.”

b) your failure is not final, v. 19
c) it won’t always feel this way, v. 20
d) God has a plan for the world, v. 21
e) God raised Jesus to bless you, v. 26
