Evangelist Richard Harper
In this passage, Peter and John encounter a beggar asking for alms. Instead of money, Peter offers him something far more valuable—healing in the name of Jesus. The man is miraculously healed, and he enters the temple walking, leaping, and praising God, drawing the attention and amazement of all who saw him. This miracle serves as a powerful testament to the early church’s message that Jesus is alive and continues to work through His apostles, spreading the message of hope and restoration in His name.
