"But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you; And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses." Acts 3: 14,15.
On reading these startling words, we are intuitively led to inquire, By whom were they uttered?
A glance at the sacred page will show that it was the apostle Peter who spoke. He who, under the malign influence of the world's hatred of Truth, and his own fear, had almost proved an apostate. But closest scrutiny cannot detect any shadow of fear in the words just read. On the contrary, they impress all who know anything of the Truth, as the boldest denunciation of error; but we do not marvel at the boldness, for it was more than mere words, it followed a wonderful demonstration of Life understood.
