Peter's first sermon after Pentecost demonstrates the power of Scripture in proclaiming Christ, as he uses Old Testament passages to prove Jesus is the promised Messiah.

• Peter quotes Psalm 16 to show David prophesied Christ's resurrection a thousand years earlier
• David couldn't have been speaking about himself since his tomb and remains were still present
• Jesus could not be held by death because Scripture had foretold his resurrection
• Psalm 110 (the most quoted Psalm in the New Testament) predicted Christ's ascension and exaltation
• The apostles consistently grounded their understanding of Jesus in the Old Testament Scriptures
• Experience matters but isn't the foundation—Scripture provides the authoritative basis for faith
• The Holy Spirit transformed Peter from one who denied Christ to a bold proclaimer
• We need both Old and New Testaments to fully understand God's revelation
• Like Peter, we should anchor our hope in the Scriptures, "as to a lamp shining in a dark place"
