“The Problem With Christians” Today’s Scripture: Psalm 23 Morning Message: “The Problem With Christians” Acts 4:5-14  

Acts 4:5-14 The Problem with Christians

Acts 4:5-14 The Problem with Christians 5-7 Christians Bring in Jesus 5The next morning the leaders, the elders, and the teachers of the Law of Moses met in Jerusalem.   6The high priest Annas was there, as well as Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and other members of the high priest's family.   7They brought in Peter and John and made them stand in the middle while they questioned them. They asked, "By what power and in whose name have you done this?"

Acts 4:5-14 The Problem with Christians 8-12 Christians Honor Jesus 8Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit and told the nation's leaders and the elders:  9You are questioning us today about a kind deed in which a crippled man was healed.   10But there is something we must tell you and everyone else in Israel. This man is standing here completely well because of the power of Jesus Christ from Nazareth.

Acts 4:5-14 The Problem with Christians 8-12 Christians Honor Jesus You put Jesus to death on a cross, but God raised him to life.   11He is the stone that you builders thought was worthless, and now he is the most important stone of all.   12Only Jesus has the power to save! His name is the only one in all the world that can save anyone.

Acts 4:5-14 The Problem with Christians 13-14 Christians Are Not Afraid 13The officials were amazed to see how brave Peter and John were, and they knew that these two apostles were only ordinary men and not well educated. The officials were certain that these men had been with Jesus.  14But they could not deny what had happened. The man who had been healed was standing there with the apostles.  CEV

“Because of me you will be placed on trial before kings and governors “Because of me you will be placed on trial before kings and governors.   13But this will be your chance to tell about your faith. 14Don't worry about what you will say to defend yourselves. 15I will give you the wisdom to know what to say. None of your enemies will be able to oppose you or to say that you are wrong” Luke 21:12b-15 CEV

Acts 4:5-14 The Problem with Christians 13 Christians Are Free 13The officials were amazed to see how brave Peter and John were, and they knew that these two apostles were only ordinary men and not well educated. The officials were certain that these men had been with Jesus.  CEV
