GOD MOCKS COMPROMISERS
Acts 5: 18-25
How the indignation of these mighty and noble men must have been aggravated by the fact that Peter and John would not compromise their belief of the truth while these men could not help but do otherwise. Peter and John stood in the confidence and boldness that only Christ gives a sinner, while these fellows who boasted of their power…feared the people. How God mocked these religious men of influence in causing them to fail at every attempt to stop his saints from preaching the truth of his Son (Psalm 2: 1-4.) By the sovereign, omnipotent hand of God, for the sake of the precious blood of his Son, compromisers cannot succeed while the Lord's people cannot fail!
