Stephen the 1st Martyr

We are back in Acts this morning

Acts 7 to be exact

Please go and read through Acts 5 and 6 and understand what happens when you lie

Nothing good happens when you lie

Anyway this morning we continue through Acts and as the church is growing and as the people are coming to a personal relationship with Christ

Remember this ran in direct opposition to the norm back then

They were telling people they didn’t need the old physical law anymore but they were under grace and mercy from Jesus Christ

This is again something the religious elite didn’t want to hear

They knew things were getting dangerous

Remember they are already been arrested and warned to stop talking about Jesus
