Was Peter's preaching in Acts 2 part of the Jewish program rather than the Church program?
Peter's preaching in Acts 2 is in perfect accord with the Jewish program, not the Church program. The passage contains no Church language, and Peter knows nothing else. The program concerns the nation of Israel, while the Church age was kept secret and not divulged at that time.
Les teaches that Acts 2 must be understood in light of the Jewish program. He points out that Peter is in perfect accord with that program and does not know anything else. In the preceding context, Les emphasizes that there is not a word of Church language, because the Church age was kept secret. Jesus knew of it but did not divulge the 1900 and some years when Israel is not involved. Everything being addressed is Jewish and concerns the nation of Israel. Les also relates this to the Old Testament program from Psalms 2, where Messiah's coming fulfills prophecy.
