Week 3, day 3

Day Three:

Read Acts 5:17-42

Reflect:

1)      After the Disciples are arrested an Angel appears to them and opens their prison cell so they can go preach the gospel.  How has God gotten you out of a seemingly hopeless situation?  Thank Him for it.

2)      Why does Gamaliel caution the Sanhedrin not to kill the apostles?

a.       Because he believed they were sorcerers?

b.      Because he believed the people would rebel if they did

c.       Because if they were truly doing God’s will He wouldn’t allow them to be stopped

d.      Because he was converted to Christianity

3)      The Apostles respond with ______________ for having been beaten for the sake of the Gospel.

To Memorize:

Then they left the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the name.  And every day, in the temple and from house to house, they did not cease teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ.

Acts 5:41-42 (ESV)
