Let's Not Be Simonized | Acts 8:1-25 | Pastor Rob McCoy

from Godspeak Calvary Chapel · host Rob McCoy

In his sermon, "Let's Not Be Simonized," Pastor Rob McCoy explores the life of Simon the Sorcerer, a man who attempted to buy the power of God with money. Simon represents someone who has been abused and seeks divine power for selfish gain. Pastor Rob contrasts Simon with figures like Peter, Philip, Stephen, and John, who were genuinely empowered by the Holy Spirit to bless others with the knowledge of Jesus Christ. This sermon encourages us to seek the true power of the Holy Spirit for the purpose of blessing and uplifting others, rather than for personal gain.
