When Obedience Defies Orders: Acts 5
Manage episode 477270321 series 3654330
In Acts Chapter 5, the apostles refuse to back down. Threatened, arrested, and strictly commanded to stop preaching in Jesus’ name, they declare with holy defiance: “We must obey God rather than men.” This chapter isn’t about comfort or compromise—it’s about courage forged in the fire of obedience. Even as deceit is judged in the case of Ananias and Sapphira, the true Church rises through the hands of bold men—casting out fear, healing the broken, and declaring the Gospel without apology.
But this isn’t just history. It’s a blueprint for every believer today, especially men called to lead in a culture that hates truth and silences conviction. The apostles' bravery is a call to action—to rise, speak, and stand when others bow to pressure. It’s a charge to live with such integrity and passion that even prison walls and public threats can’t break your testimony. In this episode, we unpack what fearless obedience really looks like—and how you can walk in it starting now.
