The Leading of the Spirit Inspiration to speak appropriately Acts 2:14-36 & 17:16-34

How does the Spirit lead? These scriptures teach us that the leading of the Spirit inspires us to say the right words There’s not a formula to remember It’s about engaging with people In Acts 2 Peter is speaking to people who believed in God People who believed the OT was inspired by God and given to them by God People whose faith was rooted in Judaism and was acted out In Acts 17 Paul is speaking to Epicureans & Stoics They didn’t accept OT history or a personal relationship with God

Peter’s inspired speech An explanation of Pentecost to Jews who believed in the OT ‘This.. is that…’ Brought about through Jesus A man you put to death But God… raised Him from the dead God is fulfilling His promise Jesus is the Messiah! And Peter let God do the rest Peter followed up when they asked He said ‘Change direction’ and ‘Be baptised’ They asked about tongues… He gave evidence about God/Jesus

Paul’s inspired speech Used This… is that! This ‘unknown God’ is that which we know He starts from where they are He never mentions the scriptures but quotes two Greek poets He appeals to their pride in thinking by mentioning their ignorance He gives them a chance to recover from their mistake by calling for repentance He gives evidence that God is behind this thinking by speaking of resurrection They asked about his babblings… Paul gave evidence about God and doesn’t mention the name of Jesus yet Paul let God do the rest

When the Spirit of God leads you to speak Will He not give you the words to say? Isn’t that what Jesus promises in Luke 12:12 Let the Holy Spirit inspire you to give evidence about God/Jesus Don’t do it all – let God do the rest Pray about it afterwards That your evidence might be used by God to move people closer to God Don’t beat yourself up This.. is that… which God has done

He inspires us to speak in ordinary life too To build family To create intimacy in marriage To generate warmer friendships To engage with the world of work
