Acts 7:51-53: “You stubborn people! You are heathen at heart and deaf to the truth. Must you forever resist the Holy Spirit? That’s what your ancestors did, and so do you! Name one prophet your ancestors didn’t persecute! They even killed the ones who predicted the coming of the Righteous One—the Messiah whom you betrayed and murdered. You deliberately disobeyed God’s law, even though you received it from the hands of angels.” |

The world is too dangerous to live in - not because of the people who do evil but because of the people who sit and let it happen. Albert Einstein
If history shows us the wrong paths that others have taken; then why do we find ourselves on that same path? The wider road is easier to follow; no doubt! HELLO…NARROW ROAD leads to life!

Stephen gives the Sanhedrin a full on history lesson of which they surely new word for word. We all, when told the obvious unrighteous acts of our lives can become aggravated. Why is that? The Bible is many things for God’s people: All scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. (2Tim3:16-17) These Words on the pages of our Bibles are God breathed; man I love that line. We must know that it is our guide, handbook, map and history of our Father, his Son and the Holy Spirit. |
