    In chapter six, the apostles felt the need to bring before the church the task of selecting seven deacons.

    They chose seven outstanding men. However, one of those men stands out head and shoulders above the rest. His name was Stephen.

    The Freedmen on those days had secretly plotted against Stephen. They induced men and stirred up the people, the elders, and the scribes. They came upon him, seized him, and brought him to the council. They also set up false witnesses against Stephen. Truth triumphs.

    One of the things that are clear as you look at the gospels is that popularity can be costly. Most of us if we would admit it, certainly desire to have it. But we sometimes don’t realize what it can cost us.

    Introduction: A. You’ve heard it said: “There are two sure things in life: #1 – There is a God, and #2 – You are not Him!” 1. In our new series that we began last week, we are working to understand those two realities – there is a God and you and I are not Him. 2. We must realize that it’s not ...read more

    Paul Vs Stephen (About The Resurrection Of Jesus)

    Contributed by Je Layugan on Oct 17, 2023
     | 1,451 views

    Paul and his friends could not win an argument against Stephen. In the end, Paul had an epiphany which lies in the understanding that God's love extends not only to Stephen and those he once persecuted but encompasses everyone, including himself.

    First, I am praying that at the end of this sermon, 1. We would have the desire to experience the deepest significance of Jesus’ resurrection in our lives. 2. We will never think of Paul’s story and Easter, the same way again. [PAUL/SAUL] • Paul was born, in about the same year or a little later ...read more
