Acts 3 - What the Name of Jesus Does
About this episode
Pastor Tyler Anderson teaches on Acts 3, highlighting the power of Jesus' name in healing and restoration.
Pastor Tyler Anderson continues a series in Acts by teaching Acts 3, emphasizing that the name of Jesus does more than identify—it restores, exposes, invites, and blesses. He recounts Peter and John healing a man lame from birth at the temple’s Beautiful Gate, not with silver or gold but by commanding, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk,” leading to immediate, complete healing and public praise. Peter then redirects attention from the apostles to Jesus, confronts the crowd’s guilt in rejecting and killing the “Author of life,” and explains the miracle was done by faith in Jesus’ name. He calls them to repent so sins may be blotted out and times of refreshing may come, concluding that God’s blessing is turning people from wickedness. Anderson applies this to a church displaced by fire, stressing the power is in Jesus’ name, not a building.
