In this sermon, we delve into Acts chapter 6 and 7, focusing on the life and martyrdom of Stephen, one of the seven chosen to distribute bread to the widows. Despite his great wonders and signs among the people, Stephen faced intense opposition from members of various synagogues. Accused of blasphemy, he was brought before the Sanhedrin and falsely testified against. Stephen's powerful recounting of Jewish history and the rejection of God's messengers led to his brutal execution by stoning. The message examines how Stephen's reliance on the Holy Spirit, his bold proclamation of truth, and his willingness to forgive his persecutors exemplify the characteristics of a living martyr. It challenges listeners to reflect on their own faith, urging them to rely on the Spirit, respond with truth, release their persecutors, and find peace in Christ.
