The Gospel message and the unvarnished truth of God’s Word are inherently offensive to a sinful world and to those holding worldly power. When God moves miraculously, as seen in the main passage of Acts 3, it draws crowds and demands a response—often setting the stage for hostility. True believers are called to faithfully stand on the front lines, denouncing sin and preaching repentance, choosing to face the wrath of men with bold courage rather than compromise the life-saving message of Christ’s substitutionary atonement.
Scripture: Acts: 3:11-26, Isaiah: 40:1-3.
