    Peter faced a challenge after he had preached the Gospel to Cornelius. This first section of Acts 11 gives his answer to the charges against him. Good things happened at the end, though!

    Introduction: This first section of Acts 11, verses 1-18, describes Peter’s response to those who were upset he had eaten with Gentiles. This would certainly be Cornelius’ household in Caesarea (see Acts 10), but the Jews in Judea didn’t have all the facts. Peter gave a step by step account of what ...read more

    When Peter was sent to the home of Cornelius, God was trying to change Peter's and the churches perspectives toward Gentiles. Peter had some prejudices against Gentiles that needed to change. Perhaps we also have biases and prejudices that God wants to change.

    Introduction: A. One day a preacher went to his monthly meeting with the elders and presented an idea that he believed he had received from God. 1. After giving his most impassioned plea and really “selling” the idea to the elders, they voted down the preacher’s proposed changes 12-1. 2. The elder ...read more

    This sermon of Peter in Acts 11 is the mark of victory for grace of the Lord Jesus. The Pentecost experience happened three times. It happened in Act chapter 2 with the Jews. It happened in Acts chapter 8 with the Samaritans. Now in Acts Chapter 10 with the Gentiles.

    Context of Peters message Acts 10 explains the events of what makes up Peter’s Acts 11 message. The news about Cornelius travelled fast and in no time the leaders in Jerusalem wanted an explanation from Peter what was happening in Caesarea. Peter himself knew he was breaking Hebrew traditions by ...read more
