I’ll invite you to open your bible with me to ActsChapter 5. Chapter 5 is such an interesting chapterto me in that many times when talking to peopleabout the Bible they see the Bible like its twodifferent books with two different God’s. They seethe Old Testament as the law and the NewTestament all about grace. They see the God of theOld Testament as being legalistic and harsh and theGod of the New Testament as kind and gracious notrealizing that the God of the Old and the NewTestament are one and the same.Here in Acts chapter 5 we see the judgment of Godbeing poured out on a husband and wife after Jesushas gone to the Cross and died for our sins and whohas been resurrected on the third day just as Hesaid for our justification. Keep in mind this is in theNew Testament and not the Old Testament. So, whysuch a harsh response by the Holy Spirit to whatmight appear to be not that big of a deal?-----------------Thank you for listening to the Calvary Chapel Bakersfield podcast!
