Can anyone find a sermon or a testimony in Acts where the Lordship of Christ is not made the issue? No, because it simply is the issue. Peter here, at the beginning of his words, does what Jesus taught by example: make Him (Christ) the issue. The fundamental question is "Who is Jesus Christ?" So Peter says "He is Lord of all." Now Cornelieus and his family and his friends must decide if their search for God has ended at the feet of Jesus Christ. The evidence is clear: God anointed Him (v38), God was with Him (v38), God raised Him from the dead (v40), witnesses saw Him (v41), and the prophets witness to Him (v43). Is it any wonder that they believed? Jesus IS Lord of all!!!
