Stephen's Speech

from Redeemer Weekend Sermons · host Bill Clark

Stephen’s Speech Acts | Week 6 June 30, 2019 | Bill Clark -- A man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit. Acts 7:51-52 NIV You stiff-necked people, with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You are just like your fathers: You always resist the Holy Spirit! Was there ever a prophet your fathers did not persecute? They even killed those who predicted the coming of the Righteous One. And now you have betrayed and murdered him. Acts 8:1 NIV And Saul was there, giving approval to his death. The Gospel advanced because of his suffering and sacrifice. Stephen showed us how to live—and how to die. Stephen showed us how to love our enemies. We should beware making an idol of the "good life"
