Acts 5:17-42

The early church is off to an amazing start. Multitudes of people getting saved every day, and God was moving powerfully with signs and wonders. And this was even with all the opposition that Peter and John were facing. However, in spite of this opposition, they continued preaching and teaching in the name of Jesus, inciting the religious leaders to jealousy and anger. But even in the midst of being imprisoned and beaten, they rejoiced for the privilege to suffer for His name's sake.
