Acts 4:14-22 Lame Man. ACTS 4:13 13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled.

For 40 days after His resurrection, the risen Lord Jesus appeared to men in very convincing ways. He particularly ministered to His disciples, for they would play a key role in His on-going ministry in and through the church.

Our first observation in these verses is that this is the account of a closed door confrontation. In Acts 2 and 3, the gospel is proclaimed in the open.

Dec 6, 2018 · John, the Beloved Disciple, is the same John who authored the gospel of John, and he tells us that when he followed Peter into the tomb, he believed (John 19:8). He believed that Jesus was alive as soon as he saw the evidence, but John adds the comment that he and Peter “did not understand the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead” (v. 9).
