Scripture Union Daily Guide 6 August 2024 Outline:
Read vs.17-18 again. If you were one of the apostles, what would you have done? What did the Apostles do? Peter and John gave appropriate response to the Sanhedrin (vs.19-20). They remembered the instruction of Jesus in Matthew 10:16-26.
Vs.13-16: Although they were ordinary men who never had any education, their boldness was outstanding. They were so filled with the message and the love for Christ that no one could stop them. The strong evidence of the remarkable miracle which the leaders cannot deny caused them to caution the Apostles and release them (v.14).
Read vs 18-22 and notice the response of the Apostles when they were ordered not to preach the gospel.
1. They did not react in anger to the accusers but politely made their point (v.19; Proverbs 25:11).
2. They insisted that they were teaching things they have seen and heard (v.20).
How do you react when you are confronted by the opposition while presenting the gospel? After further threatening they allowed them to go. Why (v.21)?
Practice/Word Application
Thought: “Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your family of believers all over the world is going through the same kind of suffering you are” (I Peter 5:9, NLT).
