Bible Study
Jan.26,2011 we were in our Bible Study and our Pastor taught a lesson from the book of Acts chapter 4:13 - 26. I have read that Chapter many times but last night as the Pastor was teaching certain words leaped out at me. In verse 13 it said they SAW the BOLDNESS of Peter and John,and PERCEIVED they were uneducated and untrained men,THEY MARVELED. And THEY REALIZED THAT PETER AND JOHN had been with JESUS. The man that was healed was standing with them,and they could not say anything against it. The council huddled up among themselves asking what shall we do to these men? They realized that a NOTABLE MIRACLE has been done through them and they could not deny it, everybody in Jerusalem knew about it. The council severely threatened them, that from now on they speak to no man in that name(JESUS). Feel free to read the rest of the Chapter, but I want to bring out a few points. I notice when you spend time with JESUS people will look at you differently. Of course some will try to find fault. As we were reading I was saying this is the same Peter whom cut off one of the soldiers ear at the garden and also the same Peter whom denied CHRIST but oh when you really spend time with JESUS their is nothing the world can do about it. He will give you BOLDNESS, people will PERCEIVE you in a different way,they will MARVEL and realize YOU HAVE BEEN WITH JESUS. I AM GOING TO SPEND MORE TIME WITH JESUS.
