We continue our study into "A Simple Presentation in The Book of ACTS - Chapter 6" with Bro. Ernie Perez. What happens when an angel opens the jail and tells you to go right back to the place you were arrested and keep preaching? We walk through Acts 6 and watch courage take shape: crowds gather for healing, leaders scramble to control the narrative, and the apostles insist on a simple, blazing claim—there’s power in the name of Jesus.We open by mapping our moment to the first century: a visible falling away, a quiet awakening, and a church deciding whether faith is culture or commitment. From the sobering aftermath of Ananias and Sapphira to streets filled with the sick, we highlight why doctrine is not dry but vital—teaching that calls for repentance, baptism, and a Spirit-filled life. The council can’t explain the prison break; the people can’t ignore the miracles. When pressed, Peter answers with the line that still divides loyalties: we must obey God rather than men.Enter Gamaliel, the respected teacher who urges restraint: if this movement is of God, you will not overthrow it. That wisdom reframes our instincts toward outrage and control. We explore how to test spiritual work by fruit and endurance, how to carry the name of Jesus as real authority rather than a slogan, and why house-to-house discipleship makes the church resilient when institutions are pressured. Beaten and ordered to be silent, the apostles rejoice and keep teaching daily, in public and at tables—an enduring pattern for modern witness.Along the way we connect faith and citizenship without letting politics set our horizon. Use your influence, pray for your city, but keep first allegiance to the kingdom of God. Expect both opposition and joy. Practice a faith that listens, repents, heals, and perseveres in Jesus’ name. If it is of God, you cannot stop it.If this conversation stirred you, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review telling us where you’re choosing obedience over approval this week. *Recorded 10/27/2025I would love your feedback and topic suggestions!Ways to Give at www.m3mi.org...Thank you for your seed! :)
