We Must Obey God Over Men

March 9, 2025 • Greg Pinkner • Acts 5, Acts 6

This Sunday, Greg Pinkner continues our series on the Book of Acts. Looking at Acts 5:1 - 6:15, he explains that biblical narratives, especially in Acts, are arranged intentionally to convey deeper theological truths, not just historical accounts. The passage highlights a pattern of highs and lows in the early church—miraculous healings, powerful sermons, arrests, and opposition—emphasizing that suffering and victory coexist in God's kingdom. Ananias and Sapphira’s story underscores the seriousness of sin and the fear of the Lord, while Stephen's martyrdom shows that even the most faithful may suffer unjustly. As believers, we must trust that God is working through suffering, as seen in Christ’s own journey from the cross to resurrection, and hold onto faith, even when life feels unbearable.
