The Name Of Jesus

Reader: Judy Carr Preacher: Jonathan Smith Recalling the big picture message from the first week, we are ordinary people empowered by the Holy Spirit to witness to the Lord Jesus to the ends of the earth. In today's message from Acts 4:1-22, we see Peter & John arrested for teaching in the name of Jesus. Facing the religious power brokers of Israel, these two men proclaim the Power Of Jesus' name by which the lame beggar was healed (see Acts 3 & last week's message). Peter goes on to proclaim that it is by Jesus' name that salvation comes, and when threatened by these powerful men to not speak in the name of Jesus again, Peter and John boldy claim that they must server God and continue to speak. Pastor Jonathan shows us that the same power, salvation and boldness is available to us. We need to be filled with the Holy Spirit and to speak in the name of Jesus.
