ACTS || All About That Life ||

This week's passage features a showdown between the apostles
and the Jerusalem priests that finally boils over. Peter and the other apostles are thrown in prison for preaching as the high priest initiates a crackdown on preaching in "this name." After a miraculous jailbreak, the apostles go right back to street preaching anyway. Why? Because the life that comes from obeying God is better than a life of pleasing people. If confronted with a choice between the two, we are to obey God, because the life that Jesus offers is so much better. It's worth it to be all about that life.
