Pentecost

Did Peter Preach the Cross-Work of Christ in Acts?

As we will see, Peter on the day of Pentecost, as “the Apostle to the circumcision (Israel)” (Gal 2:7-8 KJV), preached to Israel concerning the “gospel of the kingdom” just as he was instructed to by Jesus. This was 50 days after the cross-death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, but Peter’s preaching made no mention Christ’s Cross-work at Calvary.

Pentecostal Empowerment Vs. Liberty & Empowerment for Living by Grace

 

The prophesied work of the Holy Spirit in connection with His people of the Nation of Israel needs to be clearly understood as to its time and place… as compared with how it differs from His work today in connection with the members of “the body of Christ.”

In Joel 2:28-29 God promised to supernaturally cause the believers of Israel to prophesy, etc., but in Ezek. 36:26-27, He also promised to supernaturally cause them to do His will.
