Peter's Sermon to Cornelius

Q: What does the Bible say about the necessity of gospel preaching?

The Bible emphasizes the necessity of gospel preaching for salvation, as seen in Acts 10 with Cornelius needing to hear the gospel to believe. The necessity of gospel preaching is highlighted in Acts 10, where Cornelius, despite being a devout and God-fearing man, must hear the gospel to believe and receive salvation. God uses Peter to share the message, demonstrating that faith comes from hearing the word of Christ (Romans 10:17). As Paul stated in Romans 1:16, the gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes. This underscores that without the proclamation of the gospel, people cannot come to faith, even those who are sincerely seeking God.

Q: How do we know that God does not show favoritism?

The Bible clearly states that God is no respecter of persons, meaning He shows no favoritism based on ethnicity or human merit. In Acts 10:34-35, Peter declares that God is no respecter of persons, emphasizing that He does not show favoritism based on nationality or religious background. This profound truth is crucial in understanding God's sovereign grace, as all who fear Him and work righteousness are accepted regardless of their earthly status. The apostle Paul echoes this in Galatians 3:28, stating that there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for all are one in Christ Jesus. Thus, God's grace is freely offered to all who believe, showcasing His impartial nature.

Q: Why is understanding the role of Christ in salvation important?

Understanding Christ's role in salvation is essential as He is the only mediator between God and man, through whom we receive grace and redemption. Christ's role in salvation is central to the Christian faith because He is the appointed mediator who fully satisfies God's justice and delivers grace to believers. Acts 10:43 states that whosoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins, underscoring that faith in Christ is the path to salvation. His redemptive work, through His death and resurrection, is the foundation of our hope. Without understanding this, one cannot grasp the significance of His sacrificial atonement or the nature of God's grace, as emphasized in Colossians 1:19-20, which speaks of reconciliation through His blood. Believers are called to trust in Christ alone for their salvation and to share this message of grace with others.

Q: What does it mean to fear God in relation to faith?

Fearing God means having a deep respect and reverence for Him, which is foundational to true faith and acceptance before God. Fearing God includes a profound respect, love, and trust in Him and is essential for an authentic relationship with the Creator. In Acts 10:35, Peter states that in every nation, anyone who fears God and does what is right is accepted by Him. This reverential fear acknowledges God's holiness and authority and leads to trust in His promises. Such a fear is not mere dread but is rooted in recognizing God's greatness and responding with faith and obedience. This balance of fear and faith aligns with biblical teaching, illustrating that true acceptance before God involves a humble disposition that recognizes our dependence on His grace.

Q: How does Peter's sermon to Cornelius illustrate the gospel message?

Peter's sermon to Cornelius illustrates the gospel message as it centers on Christ's death, resurrection, and call to repentance for all people. In Peter's sermon to Cornelius, found in Acts 10, the core of the gospel message is clearly articulated. Peter emphasizes Christ’s life, death, and resurrection, affirming that Jesus is the Savior of all who believe, Jew or Gentile. The message reveals that God has made peace through the blood of Christ, providing redemption for sinners (Colossians 1:20). Peter proclaims that faith in Jesus, who was raised from the dead, brings forgiveness of sins. This account demonstrates how the gospel transcends ethnic and cultural boundaries, offering salvation universally to all who believe. Thus, Peter's proclamation is a pivotal moment in demonstrating God's inclusive grace in salvation.

Let's open our Bibles now to
the book of Acts, chapter 10. I'm going to bring the second
message in, with what I hope will be a series
of messages on the apostles preaching the gospel in the book of Acts.
so many sermons preached by the apostles, and I've been looking
at them, and I brought the first one Sunday, Paul preaching to
the people of Antioch, and now the title of this message is
Peter's Sermon to Cornelius. Let's begin reading with verse
1 of chapter 10, verse 1, chapter 10. There was a certain man in Caesarea
called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian
Band. This man's a Gentile. He was
a devout man and one that feared God with all his house, which
gave much alms to the people and prayed to God always. But
he saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day,
an angel of God coming in to him and saying unto him, Cornelius. And when he looked on him, he
was afraid. And he said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto
him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before
God. And now send me into Joppa. and
call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter. Eligeth with one Simon
a tenor, whose house is by the seaside, and he shall tell thee
what thou oughtest to do." Here you see the necessity of the
preaching of the gospel. It's evident that Cornelius is
one of God's But he's got to hear the gospel. The gospel has
got to be presented to him that he may hear it and believe it
and receive it in his heart, believe on Christ. And so the
Lord instructed him to send for Simon. Well, let's skip over
now to verse 23. He sent these men to the apostle
Peter as the angel of the Lord directed him, and they went up
there. And now verse 23, Then called
he them in, that is, the apostle Peter opened the door and had
these men come in. You can read those verses. I
want to move a little more quickly. He called them in, and called
he them in, and lodged them. And on the morrow, on the next
day, Peter went away with these men. And certain brethren from
Joppa accompanied him. And on the morrow, After they
entered into Caesarea, Cornelius waited for them and had called
together his kinsmen and near friends. Now, the Lord appeared
to Cornelius and told him that his prayers and his alms and
his desire to know God was answered, and Peter would come and tell
him what to do. So he went out and got his neighbors and friends
and relatives, that's what it says, his kinsmen and their friends.
He went out and called people together. He wanted them to hear
what the Lord had for him. I've seen this in Mexico, and
some of you men who've accompanied me there have seen it, especially
down in Milton Howard's area. When we go down there, these
two dear ladies, go out and gather up their friends
and neighbors and relatives to come to their house. They furnish
them with food. And when we get there, we drive
up in the truck. There they all are, sitting out
there waiting to hear what God would have for them, what we
preached to them. And that's the way these folks
were. He called Nocornius, got all
these folks together. to hear the gospel, verse 25. And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius
met him and fell down at his feet and worshipped. Now, I don't
believe that Cornelius was actually worshipping the Apostle Peter.
I don't believe that, and Dr. Gill agrees with me. He wasn't
worshipping. He was a devout man who knew
God, in the sense he worshipped God. And he was not an idolater,
he wouldn't worship a man. But what is going on here is
Cornelius, the Lord had appeared to him, sent an angel, and told
him to send for this man up in Joppa. And this man came down,
and how would you receive him? Well, you'd be filled with awe,
you'd be filled with the deepest respect, and he didn't know what
to do. Here was a man standing at his
door, or in his doorway, whom God Almighty had sent, and out
of respect and out of admiration and, I think, out of reverence,
he just fell down at his feet, overjoyed, don't you think, Bob,
and filled with respect and awe. And I know this is extravagant,
but I can understand how he felt. I can understand just exactly
how he felt. But it was wrong, and Peter rebuked
him. In fact, I've had this type of
thing in Mexico. I preached down there one time,
and there was a very old man, Jose. You remember Ronnie Jose? First time I preached, and he
heard me preach, and he came up there where I was standing.
I shook his hand, and he took my hand and kissed it, you know,
bent down and kissed my hand. I wasn't used to that, you know.
But it was respect, it was delight for the gospel. And this is extravagant,
and it's excessive. But now watch how Peter handles
it. Verse 26, But Peter took him up, and he said, Stand up. Stand up. Peter wisely rejected
this type of behavior. Excessive, extravagant honor. What he didn't want, he didn't
want to leave the impression with Cornelius or anybody that
he was anything more than a man, anything more than a sinner saved
by grace. What I'm saying is true service
of God, do not desire adulation and excessive recognition and
spotlight. And so Peter took him by the
hand and said, stand up, I myself also, just like you, I'm a man,
nothing else but a man. saved by grace, redeemed by God. I'm nothing, nothing in the world,
more than also, that word also means just like you, even though
this man was a Gentile. All right, verse 27, and as he
talked with him, Peter talked with this man Cornelius the Gentile,
he went in and found many that would come together. It was all
these people in Cornelius' home. And Peter said to them, now listen
to it. This will also give you some understanding of other verses
of Scripture. You know, you read where Peter, when the Lord told
him to go down to take this meat and eat it, he said, I've never
touched anything common or unclean. And these men had a very strong
opinion about Gentiles. And I want you to listen to what
Peter says. He said to him, you know, Cornelius, that it's an
unlawful thing for a man that's a Jew to keep company or come
into one of another nation. It was forbidden by the law.
This is so. It was forbidden by the law of
Moses for Jews to marry Gentile people. It was forbidden for
them to enter into any contract or covenant or partnership or
business. It was forbidden for the Jews
to even socialize with these Gentile daughters. They were
pagans, they were heathens. Don't you remember when Paul
was rebuking the church at Corinth for the immorality? He said,
that's not even known among the Gentiles. Remember how he talked? Suchness was not even known among
the Gentiles. But now watch this next line.
But God, but God hath showed me, and the Lord did through
that vision. that I should not call any man
common or unclean. In other words, what Peter is
saying, God showed me I'm not under that law anymore. I'm not
to abide by those laws anymore that no man, no man is clean
because he's circumcised, and no man's unclean because he's
not. But actually, there is no difference between the Jew and
the Greek. There's no difference for all its sins. and come short
of the glory of God, and there's no difference. The same Lord
is over all, is rich unto all that call upon him, Jew, Gentile,
male or female. And that's what Peter's setting
forth here. I've learned, it's hard for him to learn. You know
the Apostle John, Peter 1, the people wonder about that scripture
in 1 John 2 where it says, to any man's sin we have an advocate
with the Father Jesus Christ the righteous and he's the propitiation.
and propitiation, mercy, covering, atonement. That's what Jim's
been reading about here, the propitiation. For our sins, and
not for ours only, but for the whole world. We know that the
blood of Christ is not the propitiation for the whole of Adam's race.
But what John is saying here, not for Jews only, but for Gentiles. This is something in it, John.
These men had to learn, and they had to learn it the hard way.
Turn over to Romans 2 just a minute. Paul deals with this, and this
is something you and I consider elementary. This is something
we consider no problem at all, but it was a problem to them.
Paul writes in Romans 2, verse 28, he's not a Jew, which is
one outwardly. That doesn't seem like much of
a statement now, but brother, it was then. Neither is that circumcision
which is outward in the flesh. It had been for 2,000 years,
as far as they're concerned. But he's a Jew which is one inwardly,
no matter if he's a Gentile. Circumcision is out of the heart,
in the spirit, not the letter whose praise is not of men, but
of God. So Peter says in verse 29, I'll
go back to the text, Acts 10. This is so interesting to me,
I hope it is to you. We're reliving this very experience
here. Peter says in verse 29, Therefore
I came to you. God showed me that I have to
call no man common or unclean. I'm not under that dispensation
or that law. Therefore I came to you without
gainsaying. What's that? That's without argument,
without objection, without hesitation. I came. As soon as I was sent for, I
came without objection, without hesitation. Now, I ask you therefore,
I ask therefore, for what intent you sent for me. I looked at
this a little while, this question. Peter didn't rush in and start
preaching like I see so many preachers and soul winners do
today. It's a good lesson to be learned here. Peter knew why
he was there. Cornelius knew why he was there.
But Peter wanted to hear it from him. Our Lord shows this. King,
where's your brother?" He asked these different questions, you
know. And here Peter is wisely, and a good lesson to be learned
by us, who would witness to us, let other people talk. I just had an experience recently
where I felt like the man who was doing the witness just crowded the people. To the
extent that they weren't allowed to ask a question or express
themselves, we feel like the louder we holler and the more
arguments we have and the more illustration we have, we just
overwhelm them. But you don't. A man's not brought
to Christ because you snowed him or overwhelmed him, he's
brought to Christ because God took the Word and made it real
to his heart. So Peter stood there and said,
what do you want? Why'd you send them in? What are we going to
talk about? It's a good lesson to learn. Let people tell you
where they are. Let them tell you where they're coming from.
Let them do some of the talking. There's a good possibility when
they express themselves and are allowed to do so, that they may
give you somewhere to start. Because you can't give everybody
the same pill. Nicodemus, our Lord witnessed
to Nicodemus, witness to the woman at the well. And they're
coming in two different directions. They both needed Christ, I know
that, but you know what I'm saying. Let them talk, all right? So
Cornelius said, four days ago I was fasting until this hour,
and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and behold a man
stood before me in bright clothing. And he said, Cornelius, our prayers
heard, and thine arms are had in reverence in the sight of
God. Man, seek the Lord, he'll be found. of him, when you seek
for me with all your heart." When this thing is pressing upon
your heart, I'm going to read you a letter in just a minute
that illustrates what I'm saying. When you're serious, and Cornelius
was serious, and God heard him. And God said, Send therefore
to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter, he's
lodged in the house of one Simon, a tanner by the seaside. Who
when he cometh shall speak to thee? Immediately therefore I
sent to thee." I mean business. I mean business. I sent to thee.
And thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore,
listen to this. I love this. What an audience.
Oh, for such an audience. Now therefore are we all here
present before God. Here we are before God. It's
God with whom we have to do. It's God from whom we must hear.
It is God's word and will we wish to know. Here we sit before
God. He didn't say before you, but
before God. We sit before God. And we want to hear. We want
to hear all things. We're not here to debate. We're
here to hear. We're not here to argue. We're
here to hear. We're not here to criticize.
We're here to hear. Isn't that something? We are
here to hear it. All things that are commanded
be of God. I want to read you a letter that
I received just this week. This is from a young man in Australia. This sort of illustrates what's
going on here. Here are some people concerned,
troubled. wanting to know God, and they
come and sit before this man God has sent, willing to hear
all things that God has for them. Dear Mr. Mahan, this is from
a young man in Australia. You do not know me personally.
I am writing to you with a hope that this letter may be of some
encouragement to you in the Lord. I am 24 years old. I have never
read the Bible until last year for the first time. Twenty-three
years he's never read the Bible. From my very first reading of
the scriptures, I came under tremendous conviction of my sin. Well, to make a very long story
short, after months, months of guilt and confusion, I saw about
a visiting preacher at Smithfield Baptist Church in Sydney called
Henry Mahan. I went, and I've been there ever
since. I thank my gracious God and Savior,
Jesus Christ, for your ministry to me, not just that first day,
but right up to now. from the range of your sermons
we have in our tape library. Oh, how it grieves me that all
churches and preachers do not preach the wonderful gospel of
God's sovereign grace in Jesus Christ the way you do. Anyway,
you're a busy man, and I won't babble on, even though I feel
that I could talk to you about our glorious Savior from now
till he comes back. My prayer is that in some way
you will be encouraged in the Lord's ministry by my letter,
and I hope the Lord is pleased in his good providence to have
us meet in the near future. I hope to be able to send you
some money for some more taped sermons soon. Love and more love
in the precious Lord, Robert." That's worth a million dollars.
It can't be valued. All right, now here they are,
verse 33, he said, we're sitting here before God, and we want
to hear all things that are commanded thee of God. All right, here's
the message now. Then Peter opened his mouth and
said, of truth I perceive that God's no respecter of persons.
Boy, I've heard that. misused and abused and confused
so many, many times. Well, we know God no respecter
of persons. I've heard men use it as an argument
against God's precious elective grace. The fact that he would
choose one and pass by another, but that's not what Peter's talking
about. What Peter is saying is the same thing he said back there
when he said, I'm not to call any man common or unclean, whether
he's Jew or Gentile. What Peter is saying is this,
God does not value any man because he's a Jew. God does not look
with favor upon any man because he's been circumcised, or because
he's outwardly religious, nor is God any less, nor is a man
any less to God because he's uncircumcised, or because he's
a God's no respecter. There's nothing in a man or about
a man that would cause God to respect him. He's no respecter
of any man's person. So what it is? You're no closer
to God because you're white than if you were black. You're no
closer to God or a candidate for mercy because you're a Jew
or because you're not a Jew. Actually, the person and the
only person To whom God has respect is the person of Christ. You see what he's saying? That
God has no respect to any man's person. There's nothing about
us or in us or from us that would cause God to show favor to any
of us. That's what he's saying. God
has no respect of Jew or Gentile, white or black, rich or poor.
There's nothing religious or irreligious. But in every nation,
verse 35, you see there's the key, in every nation, and that's
some statement for a Jew like Peter to make, in every nation,
he that feareth God, he that feareth God and worketh righteousness
is accepted with him. What's he saying there? He's
saying any man, Jew or Gentile, who from this principle, who
from this principle, a fear of God. And my brothers and sisters,
a fear of God also is a faith in God, and a love for God, and
a confidence in God. And the man who from those principles,
love of God, fear of God, faith in Christ, he does works of righteousness,
he's accepted of God, whether he's Jew or Gentile. That's what
he's saying, Jew or Gentile. Now look at verse 36. There's
no acceptance of any man's person except in Christ. Now verse 36,
the word which God sent unto the children of Israel, that's
the people to whom it came first, to the gospels of power of God
and salvation, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. He came
unto his own, his own received him not. The word God sent to
the children of Israel, what was that word? He preached peace,
peace, peace with God, not peace upon the earth. Not peace between
nations. This is the peace of God and
the peace with God. And that peace is by Jesus Christ. Turn with me to Colossians. This
is what Peter is saying and what Paul wrote. Colossians chapter
1. It's the first chapter. Colossians
chapter 1, verse 19. So it pleased the Father that
in Christ should all fullness dwell, and having made peace,
peace with whom? Peace with God, through the blood
of his cross, by Christ to reconcile all things to himself. By him,
I say, whether they be things in earth or things in heaven.
That's what he's saying here. The word which God sent to the
children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ for he's
Lord of all. That word I say you know. You've
heard about it. This thing wasn't done in a corner.
This word was spread all over Caesarea and every place else. You know about this. And it was
published throughout all Judea. That's what Peter is saying to
these people. It was published throughout all Judea. It began
from Galilee after the baptism which John the Baptist preached.
These people were acquainted with John's ministry. They were
acquainted with the ministry of the apostles. And he said,
that word, that word is the word of God. He's the author of it.
That word is the word of Christ. He's the sum and substance of
it. That word is the word of salvation, whereby we have redemption
through it. That word is the word of righteousness,
for the righteousness of God is revealed in that gospel. It's
called the word of faith. By faith, by the word of God,
comes faith. It's the word of comfort and
assurance. It's the word of truth. Look at verse 38. And here it
is. This is the word. This is the
word. How that God anointed Jesus of
Nazareth. God made him the Messiah. God
made him the Christ. No man takes this office upon
himself. He's not just a self-proclaimed
Messiah. God anointed him. God appointed
him. God ordained him. God sent him
forth and anointed him with the Holy Ghost without measure and
with power. Jesus of Nazareth. And he went
about doing good. Those were his credentials along
with all the other witnesses. John the Baptist and the Father
from Heaven. The mighty works that he did,
healing all that were oppressed, and God was with him. That's
what Nicodemus said, no man could do what you did except God be
with him. God anointed him, and God was
with him. Look at verse 39. And Cornelius,
we're witnesses to all these things, which he did, both in
the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem. And they slew him and hanged
him on a tree. Why do these Jews hang one of
their own upon a tree? Well, partly because of the pain
of it. They wanted him to suffer all the pain he possibly could
suffer. They hated this man Jesus of
Nazareth. Partly because of the shame of
it. Cursed is everyone that hangs on a tree. That's what Moses
wrote in Deuteronomy. Don't let him hang on that tree
over the Sabbath. Get him down. Because cursed
is everyone that hangs on a tree. They wanted Jesus of Nazareth
to suffer the pain of it, and the shame of it, and another
thing they wanted to do, shift the blame to the Romans. That's
a Roman form of death, not a Jewish. They stoned the man, Jews did.
Romans put them on a cross. But all of this God decreed.
They pierced my hands and my feet. They slew him and hanged
him on a tree, a shameful, ignominious death. which our Lord endured
for his people." Verse 40, and here's the glory of it, "...him
God raised up the third day." God raised him from the dead. Turn with me to Acts chapter
2. See, this was Brother Fortner
and I were talking today on the phone, and he said in the book
of Acts, the word preaching, or preached, is mentioned some
37 or 38 times, I believe he said. And every time, almost
every time, I'll leave an almost there, it's connected with Jesus
Christ and his resurrection. His resurrection. See, his resurrection.
That's what Paul said, that's what I'm preaching on tomorrow
night in Pikeville. If Christ be not raised, we're
not only of all men most miserable, but he's an imposter. And we
don't have any redeemer. When God raised him from the
dead, that's when God testified that he is the appointed Messiah. There have been a lot of messiahs
and religious leaders, but you can visit all of their graves.
You can find Mohammed's grave and Confucius' grave and Buddha's
grave and all the rest of them. Everybody's ever risen and claimed
to be a powerful religious savior or messiah has died and the graves
are still wherever they were. But you can't visit my Lord's
grave. He's not in the grave. The angel said, why do you seek
the living among the dead? Why do people go over there now?
I don't know. To stand and look at a hole in the grave. His glory
is not in that hole. His glory is in his exultation
and his redemptive victory. He conquered. That's his glory.
And this is what he said in Acts 2. Listen to this. Acts 2, verse
2. 22, Peter said, You men of Israel,
hear these words, Jesus of Nazareth, approved of God, this is what
he's preaching to Cornelius, same thing, approved of God among
you by miracles and wonders and signs which God did by him in
the midst of you as you yourselves also know, wasn't done in a corner,
you know this, him being delivered by the determinate counsel and
foreknowledge of God, you have taken the wicked hands of crucified
and slain, whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of
death, because it was not possible he should be whole enough, God
raised him up. God hath appointed a day in which
he is going to judge the world by that man, Jesus Christ, by
which he gave testimony and witness to the whole world when he raised
him from the dead. Raised him from the dead. And
verse 40 again, our text, Acts 10. Him God raised up the third
day and showed him openly, not to all the people, but unto witnesses
chosen before of God, even to us, the apostles who did eat
and drink with him after he rose from the dead. We ate and drank
with him. And he commanded us to preach
unto the people, all people, every creature, and to testify,
this is our message, that it is he Oh, I like that statement
about that. It is He. It is He who is the
Messiah. It is He that redeemed the people. It is He that is the resurrection
and life. It is He that shall judge the
quick and the dead at His coming. It is He. And if you believe
not Christ said that I am He, you'll die in your sins. I believe
that it is He. Don't you go. It's He. That's
the very foundation of my faith, my preaching, my hope. everything. I believe that it is he, which
was ordained of God to be the judge of the quick and the dead.
It is he. I am he. I am he. If you don't believe
I am he, you'll die in your sin. All right, verse 43, now listen. Peter says, to him give all the
prophets witness. Do you notice Sunday when I was
preaching what Paul preached at Antioch, he went back to the
Old They do it every time these fellows do. He went back to him. Here's Peter, his last statement.
To him, to Christ, it is he. To him, give all the prophets
witness. Who are the prophets? Moses?
Isaiah? And this is what those prophets
say, that through his name, John says this in some translations,
is through his blood. Through his life, we have righteousness. Through his blood, we have pardon. Through his power, we have assurance. Through his hands, grace is bestowed. Through his death, we shall rise. And through his resurrection,
we shall live, through his name. Listen, whosoever believeth in
him, in him, in him shall receive remission of sins. Now that's
a sermon to a people who haven't heard a sermon before. That was
the message to people who had gathered from all walks of life,
Gentiles, pagan Gentiles, and Peter came and preached Christ. Preach Christ. And that's our
foundation, our good hope, Christ our Lord. And that's what we
come together tonight to observe, just what Peter's preaching here.
He loved me, he gave himself for me. His body was broken for
us and his blood was shed for us. And as these elements, the
bread and the wine, as they are distributed here tonight, all
who love him, all who believe on him, all who rest and trust
in him, are invited to his table. He issued the invitation that
you come to me, I'll give you rest.
