Acts 5:29-32 King James Version (KJV)
29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought
to obey God rather than men.
30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and
hanged on a tree.
31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a
Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of
sins.
32 And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the
Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.
Acts 5:29-32
NHEB 29 But Peter and the apostles answered, "We must obey God
rather than men. 30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom
you killed, hanging him on a tree. 31 God exalted him with his
right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance to
Israel, and remission of sins. 32 We are witnesses of these
things; and so also is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to
those who obey him."
These are my thoughts, please share yours.
29 This is something we need as Christians to live by, we need
to put God first prior to our own wants as well as others.
30 They thought they had removed Jesus by killing them but this
is exactly why they were speaking.
31 They preach the gospel to the people who are trying to stop
them, this shows that they were not even scared of the results
but served the Lord and trusted Him to deal with things.
32 They had a purpose and they were living it, we have that same
mission and nothing should stop of even if things stands in our
ways.

My thoughts: If only the Church remembered that at all times.
