  • Lying To The Holy Spirit Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 4, 2017
     | 16,198 views

    If God killed every Christian who lied, the churches would be empty. This does not excuse lying, but it does acknowledge our fallibility. The message is a study of one couple that attempted to deceive God and what He did about their deceit.

    “A man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property, and with his wife’s knowledge he kept back for himself some of the proceeds and brought only a part of it and laid it at the apostles’ feet. But Peter said, ‘Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit ...read more

     | 61,856 views

    “His wife also being privy to it . . .” tells us that this was not a sin committed on the spur of the moment. Ananias and his wife had talked it over between themselves and agreed to do it; they planned what they would say to cover up this fraud.

    November 4, 2013 By: Tom Lowe Series:The Early Church Lesson II.D.1: The Deceit of Ananias and Sapphira (5.1-11) Acts 5.1-11 (KJV) 1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession, 2 And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to ...read more

  • God Shows His Church How To Stay Out Of Trouble Series

    Contributed by Rick Crandall on Apr 6, 2017
     | 12,402 views

    God shows us that: 1. Satan has a strategy (vs. 1-3). 2. Our integrity is important (vs. 3-4). 3. Our sin is serious (vs. 5-10). 4. We should grow in godly fear (vs. 5 & 11). 5. We must lean on God's leadership (vs. 3-4).

    God Shows His Church How to Stay out of Trouble Acts 5:1-11 Sermon by Rick Crandall Grayson Baptist Church - Aug. 11, 2013 BACKGROUND: *When we looked at the early church last week, they had been severely threatened by the religious authorities in Jerusalem. But they took their troubles to the ...read more

  • Is The Holy Ghost A Gentleman? Series

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Apr 11, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,067 views

    Does the Holy Spirit act contrary to our will? Is He just the suggester-in-chief?

    Is the Holy Ghost a Gentleman? Acts 5:1-11 I don’t know how often I have heard that the Holy Ghost is a gentleman. It is often assumed that the Holy Ghost will not force His way on anyone. I use the older term Holy Ghost rather than the newer use of the Holy spirit because “ghost” comes from the ...read more

  • Two Views On Goodness

    Contributed by Oscar Medina on Nov 27, 2016
     | 5,682 views

    How do you determine whether something or someone is "good"? Ananias & Saphira appear to be "good" yet they weren't.

    Intro: I’ve done a little ancestry work with my siblings and in some previous travels to Cuba. We found out some interesting things; my ancestors on my Mom’s side go back to Spain in two generations, but on my Dad’s side they go back in Cuba 4 generations. Those great-great ...read more

  • Genesis 3 Made Us "Smart Phones” - Part 4 Series

     | 10,082 views

    This is the fourth and last teaching in the series "Auto-correcting God." This teaching examines Acts 5, the record of Ananias and Sapphira.

    This is the last message in the series “Auto-correcting God.” In the three previous messages we looked at individuals in the Old Testament who had received an instruction from God but chose not to follow it. They altered the instruction the Lord had given to them to fit what they believed – to ...read more

  • Was The Early Church Socialist, Even Communist? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 13, 2021
     | 1,726 views

    Some commentators and politicians who belong to the Superficialist School of Bible Interpretation really mess up when they say Christians should be socialists because the early Church was.

    Jesus told His disciples, "Blessed are you poor" as Luke records it, and Matthew writes "Blessed are the poor in spirit." Filled with the Holy Spirit, the early Christians, or many of them, decided to take Jesus literally. They pooled their resources, as Luke records in the Acts ...read more

  • God Loves A Cheerful Giver

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 18, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,311 views

    The “tithe” is not our money; it’s God’s. When we refuse to trust the church in handling the tithe, and feel that we know the best use for it, then this is contempt for God and His Spirit, and we are treading on dangerous ground!

    I remember when my wife and I first got married that she would tell me stories about the Christian camp she attended as a child, because camp meant so much to her growing up. One of the songs they sang at camp was called, “God Loves a Cheerful Giver,” which was about Ananias and Sapphira; and I ...read more

  • Two Kinds Of Appearances

     | 2,155 views

    For many today, life is all about appearances. We live in an age where people want to APPEAR one way but the reality is the opposite of their appearance.

    Illus: During the Oscars in Hollywood in 2004, the actors and actresses tried to give the impression that they cared about poverty. Listen, if they really cared about the poor as they pretend to care, instead of buying those dresses that some of the actresses paid hundreds of thousands of dollars ...read more

  • An Outline Of Acts 5:1-11

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on May 5, 2021
     | 3,919 views

    Ananias and Sapphira sold a piece of land and gave part of the money to the apostles. But there was something not quite right about this and it became clear very quickly. This is another outline from a mini-series on Acts I preached several years ago.

    Introduction: the early church faced a significant problem: taking care of new converts and their needs. The last verses of Acts 4 describe how people sold things they owned and gave the money to the apostles to help meet these needs. Barnabas, a Levite of Cyprus, even sold a piece of land and gave ...read more

  • Acts Of The Apostles (7 Of 39)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022
     | 1,293 views

    Luke wrote to Theophilus, telling him of some of the great events of the early church.

    As he tells of these events, it is like an unwinding story in which one event leads into the next. For example, after Pentecost, he leads into chapter 3, and tells of Peter and John going into the temple. He tells of the man who had been crippled from birth, asking them for alms. Luke related ...read more
