The sermon centers on Stephen's 'irresistible word' in Acts 6:10, highlighting how his speech—marked by divine wisdom and spiritual power—could not be opposed. Drawing from the historical context of Stephen's ministry as a deacon and miracle-worker, the preacher emphasizes that his defense in Acts 7, rooted in Old Testament history and Christ-centered truth, was effective because it was empowered by the Holy Spirit. Theologically, this reflects the enduring reality that Christ continues His work through believers, as seen in the book of Acts, where the Spirit equips the faithful to proclaim the gospel with authority. The sermon applies this truth to all believers, urging them to be confident, unapologetic, and bold in defending the faith, knowing that the truth of Christ, when spoken in Spirit and truth, cannot ultimately be resisted. 1.
