What does the Bible say about the apostles' actions in Acts?

Answered in 1 source

The Book of Acts describes the actions of the apostles as they were instruments of the Lord Jesus, empowered by the Holy Spirit.

In the Book of Acts, the actions of the apostles are not presented merely as isolated events of a group of individuals but as the workings of the Lord Jesus through them, empowered by the Spirit of God. The book shows that it’s Christ who orchestrated these events, enabling His chosen instruments to fulfill His divine purposes. The apostles, particularly Peter and Paul, acted under the authority and guidance of Jesus, highlighting the reality that without Him, they could do nothing, as stated in John 15:5, "without Me, you can do nothing." This underscores the importance of divine enablement in preaching and ministry.
