Stand Up For Jesus (Acts 4:23-33)
Terrel Kesterson, April 22, 2018Part of the series, preached at a Sunday Morning service
The last few weeks we’ve heard about Peter healing a lame man by Jesus’ power. Peter and
John, who was with him, then spoke to the people there about Jesus and eternal salvation by faith
in Him. The Jewish leaders were forced to admit to themselves, “…that a notable miracle has
been done through them is evident to all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.” The
leaders then commanded Peter and John to stop telling people about Jesus, to which they replied,
“Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God, you judge. For we
cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.” Fearing the people’s reaction if
Peter and John were punished, the leaders let them go (Ac. 4:13ff.).
