BLUEPRINTS: More Than A Miracle - Acts 3

The book of Acts is more than a collection of incredible miracles—it’s a record of how God established and authenticated His Church while also providing timeless principles for every believer. In this message, we look into the important distinction between the extraordinary signs God used to validate the apostles and the enduring patterns the Church is called to follow. When we recognize this, Acts becomes the greatest defense of the Church as God’s choice vehicle in our world today. It also helps us to understand what principles are meant to be adopted and practiced by all believers. Focusing on Acts 3, we discover that the healing of the lame man was never meant to draw attention to given person's 'ability' to perform miracles, but was always about exalting Jesus. The miracle opened the door for the gospel, reminding us that every act of compassion, every opportunity to serve, and every testimony should ultimately point people to Christ. While miracles may capture our attention, the greatest miracle is still the transforming power of Jesus, who refreshes hearts today and promises complete restoration for all who trust in Him.
