  • An Outline Of Acts 4:1-22

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on May 4, 2021
     | 3,339 views

    Peter and John were arrested after they healed a man born lame, as recorded in Acts 3. Now they're on trial, the next day, before a group of Israel's leaders. What happened next? (This is another outline from a miniseries on Acts I preached several years ago.)

    Introduction: In Acts 3, Luke records how Peter and John were on their way to the Temple to observe and take part in the afternoon time of prayer. While on the way there, they saw and then healed a man who had been lame from his birth. Peter preached another message to the crowd who had gathered in ...read more

    Ananias and Sapphira sold a piece of land and gave part of the money to the apostles. But there was something not quite right about this and it became clear very quickly. This is another outline from a mini-series on Acts I preached several years ago.

    Introduction: the early church faced a significant problem: taking care of new converts and their needs. The last verses of Acts 4 describe how people sold things they owned and gave the money to the apostles to help meet these needs. Barnabas, a Levite of Cyprus, even sold a piece of land and gave ...read more

    The apostles were taken into custody another time and stood trial the next day. Compare what Peter said, and what Gamaliel said, as responses to the charges! This outline is revised from one I used in preaching a miniseries on Acts several years ago.

    Introduction: the apostles were healing people, through the power of God, so much that even people from outside Jerusalem were bringing their sick folks there for healing. Verses 12-16 give a brief summary of these activities. All of this no doubt led to the high priest and others taking action to ...read more

    If you were to ask church members today what was the greatest day in their church, some might say:

    • The greatest day in our church, was after we all had worked and sacrificed for a long time to build it, and had it completed, and were finally able to dedicate it to the Lord, and begin worshipping in it." • Others might say the greatest day in our church, was when we made the last ...read more

    Acts 12:1-17 has the story how Peter was condemned to death, but an angel saw to it that he was made free! Peter then found a group of believers, explained the situation, and then left the area.

    An outline of Acts 12:1-17 1 Peter was a marked man Text, Acts 12:1-5, KJV: 1 Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. 2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. 3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take ...read more

    Herod had moved from Jerusalem to Caesarea after Simon Peter had escaped from prison. These verses describe some of the last things he did before he died.

    An outline of Acts 12:18-25 1 Herod’s reaction to Peter’s disappearance Text, Acts 12:18-19, KJV: 18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter. 19 And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded ...read more

    Acts 13 is a turning point in the history of the Church. Barnabas and Saul were personally selected by the Holy Spirit for a special mission. They left Antioch, preached through Cyprus, and experienced several things.

    Introduction: Acts 13 could serve as a turning point in the Church’s story. The first 12 chapters are primarily concerned with the beginning of the Church and the issues facing the Church near Jerusalem. Now Luke is relating how the Church was going “to the uttermost part of the earth.” 1 Antioch: ...read more

    Paul and Barnabas arrived in Antioch of Pisidia (Asia Minor) and preached the Gospel there. Paul's message touched the hearts of many people--in both good and bad ways!

    Introduction: This last section of Acts 13 is mostly the sermon preached by Paul at the synagogue in Antioch of Pisidia. Through his preaching, many people heard the Word of God and many believed the Gospel! 1 The arrival in Antioch and first part of Paul’s sermon Text: Acts 13:13-25, KJV: 13 Now ...read more

    This first section of Acts 16 focuses on Paul and several others as they ministered in Philippi. Lydia from Thyatira was there and she was the first person in Europe to believe the Gospel!

    1 Paul and Silas add Timothy Text: Acts 16:1-5, KJV: 1Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek: 2 Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at ...read more

    Lydia and others had believed the Gospel. Paul, Silas, Luke, and other members of this team were staying in Philippi to preach and teach. But trouble was just around the corner for these men.

    Trouble for the Team in Philippi Introduction: After Lydia and presumably others believed the Gospel, Paul, Silas, Luke, and other members of this team stayed in Philippi to preach and teach. The Church in Philippi grew from this small group (see Paul’s letter to the Philippians) to a great ...read more

    Paul and Silas had been taken into bondage, thrown into the inner prison in Philippi. See what God did for these men, and what they did for Him, too.

    Introduction: Paul and Silas had been beaten, and then taken to the inner part of Philippi’s prison. The jailer had placed their feet in stocks and left them—Luke says nothing about a trial, examination, or anything Paul and Silas could do. These men did the best thing possible, by praying and ...read more

    Paul, Silas, and Timothy left Philippi and made their way to Thessalonica and later Berea. They preached, people believed, but others did not. This is an action-packed episode in Paul's life and ministry.

    Introduction: Paul, Silas and Timothy had left Philippi. Now they’re heading towards Thessalonica and later Berea. People believed the Gospel, but others did not, so Paul and the others had to move on to other locations. 1 The Ministry in Thessalonica Text: Acts 17:1-9, KJV: 1 Now when they had ...read more

    Paul had left Berea and with the help of friends made it to Athens, one of Greece's largest cities. He stood alone in that city, sharing the gospel with as many as he could: even some of the elite!

    Introduction: This section covers Paul’s ministry in Athens, after he had left Thessalonica and Berea. While there he tried to share the Gospel with as many as he could. 1 The Dialogue in the Agora or market place Text, Acts 17:16-21, KJV: 16 Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit ...read more

    Many things are done that are attributed to the Spirit, but He did not do them. Discernment is needed.

    The Holy Spirit is Not A Side Show Act When I was a new Christian I latched on to anything that had Christian in it. I had every part of Jesus Christ Superstar memorized. Then I found out it was written by a Jew and an atheist and was not meant to be a ...read more

  • An Outline Of Acts 9:1-31

    Most of this chapter revolves around Saul of Tarsus and how he met the Risen Lord Jesus on the Damascus Road. This outline could be expanded into a series or condensed into a single message.

    Introduction: Acts 9 contains two sections. Verses 1-31 contain the conversion of Saul of Tarsus, the ministry of Ananias of Damascus to Saul, and Saul’s early ministry to the people of Damascus. He then fled Damascus, made his way back to Jerusalem, but returned to Tarsus because people wanted to ...read more
