What does Acts 4:12 teach us in The One Name That Saves?

In this expository sermon on Acts 4:12, Dr. Toby Holt of New Geneva Theological Seminary teaches that salvation is found in no one but Jesus Christ, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Preaching from Peter's defense before the Jewish Sanhedrin, he expounds the exclusivity of Christ: Jesus of Nazareth, the crucified and risen Messiah and rejected chief cornerstone, is the singular means of salvation, a claim the world rejected then and rejects now. The sermon presses hearers to trust in the one name by which they must be saved.

"Rulers of the people and elders of Israel: If we this day are judged for a good deed done to a helpless man, by what means he has been made well, let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole." - Acts 4:8-10 (NKJV)
