Acts Chapter Six is a continuation of how the first century church was being structured during the aftermath of Jesus’ ascension and the beginnings of Peter and John overseeing the disciples and followers of the Way. Stephen becomes a critical character with strong faith and morale who not only becomes one of seven chosen to assist in leading the ministry, but he was also blessed with the ability to perform miracles. Stephens ability to be recognized as one of the most faithful Christians in history does not go overlooked by Hebrews, Hellenists, and Elders of the council who begin to falsely accuse Stephen of blasphemy as he lives out God’s Will for his life which is to give, love, and serve.
We are back at it, so as always,
God Bless,
