Join us in this thought-provoking episode of our podcast, where we delve into a powerful narrative from Acts 4. Titled "Guilty as Charged: Not for Wrongdoing, but for Doing Good," this episode explores the remarkable story of Peter and John as they face persecution for healing a man.
Peter and John were questioned by the authorities, but instead of denying their actions, they boldly declared, "If we are being called to account today for an act of kindness shown to a man who was lame and are being asked how he was healed, then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed." In essence, they proclaimed, "WE PLEAD GUILTY" – not with shame, but with pride in their faith and the name of Jesus Christ.
