What do we do with those followers of Christ? They insist on proclaiming the message loudly and changing people's lives. When we lock them up, the doors come wide open. What do we do with these folks who relentlessly insist on proclaiming the message of Jesus? (www.lifejournal.cc) If we shut them down, we will make a host of people mad. If we let them go, the message will continue to spread and more will know and more will share and it will go viral. (Maybe they didn't use the word 'viral.') Gamaliel spoke very wise truths to them.
Acts 5:38-39- So in the present case I tell you, keep away from these men and let them alone, for if this plan or this undertaking is of man, it will fail; 39but if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them. You might even be found opposing God!" You cannot stop God so don't try it. If it is of God, you don't want to try to stop it. If it is not of God, it won't last.
Let's go to church today and fuel the fire. Let's not try to put out the fires of God's Work but instead fan the flames of the power of the Holy Spirit working in us and through us today. If it is of Him, it will spread.
