Go, Stand, Speak: Obeying God Rather Than Men

September 19, 2021 ()

Bible Text: Acts 5:17-42 |

We consider the actions of the apostles are they are arrested and jailed a second time for declaring Jesus as crucified, risen from the dead, and exalted to the right hand of God. In this crucial time at the very founding of the church, the preeminence of Christ over all is asserted and boldly proclaimed in the midst of opposition. In a time of needed courage, we learn from their example the power of the Spirit, the proclaimed word, and prayer.

May God encourage us to go, stand, and speak for him.
