This is the heart of Peter’s Pentecost sermon. He declares that Jesus’ death was part of God’s divine plan, but humans are still responsible for crucifying him. God raised Jesus from the dead, freeing him from death’s power—fulfilling David’s prophecy. Peter argues that David wasn’t speaking of himself, but of the Messiah, whom God would raise and exalt. He affirms that Jesus is now exalted at God's right hand and has poured out the Holy Spirit, which the crowd is witnessing.

How should we understand the upside down nature of the kingdom and the kind of power we are called to pursue? How does Jesus’ resurrection and exaltation redefine power, kingship, and God's faithfulness?
