A Christ-Centered Sermon: Acts 3:11-26

The Trails Church

In Acts 3:11–26 we find the summary of “A Christ-Centered Sermon,” the second sermon preached by Peter in the Book of Acts. After the sign of Pentecost in Acts 2 and now following the sign of the lame man healed in Acts 3, we learn how these signs set the stage for sermons, wonders made way for the Word, miracles led to the message. The sermon shows that the sign itself was not the point but was meant to point to Jesus Christ. We will outline our sermon with four points that we first find in Peter’s sermon: 1. The God of Israel, 2. The Gravity of Sin, 3. The Glory of Christ, 4. The Gospel of Repentance.
