Acts 5:27-42 Fighting Against God

The Apostles were bold. They get arrested for preaching the Gospel, gets thrown into prison. An angel saves them from that prison. And what do they do? They go preach in the Temple courts. Nothing will keep them quiet.

But then the Jewish establishment arrests them again and brings them in for rebuke and questioning. The Apostles answer: "We must obey God rather than man". Flogged and released, they continued to peach. 

In this piece of text there are many tings to take note of: Satan uses Earthly authority to silence the Saints, we must pay careful attention to whom we obey (God or man) and we must remember to be happy when people dislike us for doing God's will.
