Jesus and the Tent of David, Acts 15:16

May 24, 2015 Leave a Comment

The Tent of David

Introduction

Text: Acts 15:16

The Jerusalem Council

  • They received the Holy Spirit by faith – apart from any human merit.
  • God had done miracles among them (which was always an indication of genuine faith).
  • The had predicted the inclusion of the Gentiles.
    • Jesus would restore the fallen of David (Amos 9:11-12).

What does this mean for the Gentiles?

  1. It provides access to God (2 Samuel 6:16-17).
  2. It legitimizes our standing with the people of Israel.
  3. It requires us to turn away from all competing allegiances. Jesus cannot just be added to our own agendas and values.
  4. It sensitizes us to the fact that God is drawing together a diverse people for his name.
