Obey God Rather Than Men

This sermon examines the early church's response to persecution by the religious leaders, emphasising the imperative to obey God rather than men. It highlights Peter and John's bold proclamation that salvation is found exclusively in Jesus Christ, contrasting their direct witness with the leaders' rejection of the Messiah. The message further explores the internal dynamics of the church, moving from the unity and shared resources of Acts 4 to the consequences of deceit and neglect in Acts 5 and 6. The tone is instructional and pastoral, urging believers to maintain spiritual boldness, avoid conformity to the world, and ensure that no member of the body of Christ is overlooked. Ultimately, the sermon calls for a life characterised by unwavering faith in Christ and practical care for fellow believers.
