Welcome back to Bible Chapter by Chapter, where we walk carefully and faithfully through God’s Word.In this deep study of Acts Chapter 4, we examine what happens immediately after the miracle in the temple: public witness meets official resistance. Peter and John are questioned by the religious authorities and commanded to stop teaching in the name of Jesus. Luke shows us the early Church’s profound response—a refusal to be silenced, a corporate prayer for boldness, and a powerful display of unity and generosity.Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6MnjQf5YAsxCAhha7jCSGD?si=2DPbX0qqT1CwTrNmLFR8NwThis chapter challenges us to examine our own courage when faithfulness becomes costly.**— SCRIPTURE & STUDY GUIDE —**0:00 - Introduction: Obedience Meets Opposition1:33 - Opening Prayer2:14 - Acts Chapter 4 (WEB) - Complete Scripture Reading**DEEP THEOLOGICAL COMMENTARY**7:17 - Section I: Public Witness and Inevitable Opposition (Acts 4:1–4)8:31 - Section II: Questioned Authority and Spirit-Filled Speech (Acts 4:5–12)9:39 - Section III: Evidence That Cannot Be Denied (Acts 4:13–18)10:49 - Section IV: Obedience Above Permission (Acts 4:19–22)11:42 - Section V: The Church Responds With Prayer, Not Panic (Acts 4:23–28)12:53 - Section VI: Boldness Requested, Not Escape (Acts 4:29–31)13:51 - Section VII: Unity, Generosity, and Shared Life (Acts 4:32–35)Thank you for joining me for Bible Chapter by Chapter!
