The Face of an Angel Acts 6:8-15 Acts of God #25

And Stephen, full of grace and power, was performing great wonders and signs among the people. Acts 6:8

But some men from what was called the Synagogue of the Freedmen, including both Cyrenians and Alexandrians, and some from Cilicia and Asia, rose up and argued with Stephen. Acts 6:9

But they were unable to cope with the wisdom and the Spirit with which he was speaking. Acts 6:10

Then they secretly induced men to say, "We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and against God." Acts 6:11

And they stirred up the people, the elders and the scribes, and they came up to him and dragged him away and brought him before the Council. Acts 6:12

They put forward false witnesses who said, "This man incessantly speaks against this holy place and the Law; for we have heard him say that this Nazarene, Jesus, will destroy this place and alter the customs which Moses handed down to us." Acts 6:13-14

And fixing their gaze on him, all who were sitting in the Council saw his face like the face of an angel. Acts 6:15
