Standing Up and Speaking Out
Lesson - Standing Up for Your Beliefs
What are you willing to stand up for? Your
friends, your political beliefs, social injustice,
maybe acts of global terrorism? Sure we would
stand up for those things. We’d even get rather
vocal about them, but are you willing to stand
up for your religious beliefs? We probably want
to, but fear stops us. The world tells us to
remain quiet and keep our Christian beliefs to
ourselves and we listen.
Text - Acts 8:9-13
!
In Acts we find Peter standing up for what he
believes. There was a new Christian who had
been a magician. His ‘power’ was not real, but
when he saw the power of the Apostles he had
to have it. If he had this gift like the Apostles he
knew that he could be rich. When he asked for
that privilege Peter rebukes this brother. Peter
knew the wickedness that was in him.
Now is the time for Christians to follow Peter’s
lead and stand up for what we believe in.
