158 P r e a c h i n g a n d Te a c h i n g 2, 3, 4, 5, and 8 to 10, where he preached to the household of Cornelius. The development was not in Peter’s method, the mechanics of his preaching, or his own study. Rather, it was his obedience to the leading of the Holy Spirit that brought about the evangelization of the Gentiles. Before Peter’s ministry at the house of Cornelius, God prompted Peter by a series of visions (Acts 10:9–17), spoke to him by the Holy Spirit, telling him to go to Caesarea (Acts 10:19–20), and revealed how fully He had prepared the way for universal evangelism. After these marvelous spiritual experiences, Peter’s task of preaching was made much easier, for he realized that he was only a channel through which the ministry of God’s Word flowed to others. Peter’s message had one central feature: the proclamation of the gospel. His experience shows that the power is not in the person or in the method, but in the gospel (Romans 1:16). God uses trained, capable people, but even the most capable ministers acknowledge that the gospel is preached not in the wisdom of men but in the power of the Spirit (1 Corinthians 2:3–5). I encourage you to study to gain all the skill you can, and to work diligently to do the best you can to preach this gospel message. But be aware always that the power of salvation is not in the skills you learn or the ability you have, but in the message you preach: the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Application 19.Circle the letters of TRUE statements that explain in what ways Peter exemplifies a New Testament preacher. a) Peter is an example of a New Testament preacher because he had one primary theme: the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. b) Peter’s ministry shows how completely he utilized the structure of the homily in communicating the gospel. c) Peter’s ministry is a convincing demonstration of the effectiveness of the gospel as it is proclaimed in the power of the Spirit.
T h e M e t h o d o f P r e a c h i n g 159 d) The record of Peter’s preaching ministry in Acts indicates that he always had a goal in mind, for he began at the point of the people’s needs and ministered to meet those needs. e) Peter’s example in ministry demonstrates that education is not important, preparation is not necessary, and spiritual growth is not required in the one who ministers, since God uses “empty vessels.” f) From Peter’s record of ministry in Acts chapters 1–10, we learn that God used Peter’s knowledge of: Israel’s history, Jesus’ life and teachings, his own relationships with people, the Old Testament Scriptures, and his utter dependence on the Holy Spirit’s enablement—all of these—to enrich Peter’s ability to communicate effectively.
