Acts 5:38-42 ▼

38 |I'm telling you to keep away from these men for now. Leave them alone, because if this plan or movement is of human origin, it will fail.

39 However, if it's from God, you won't be able to stop them, and you may even discover that you are fighting against God!| So they were convinced by him.

40 After calling in the apostles and beating them, they again ordered them to stop speaking in the name of Jesus and let them go.

41 They left the Council, rejoicing to have been considered worthy to suffer dishonor for the sake of the Name.

42 Every day in the Temple and from house to house they kept teaching and proclaiming that Jesus is the Messiah.
