Acts 4:1-4 // The cost and offence of the Gospel, and the danger of unchecked emotion
•
Rich Crosby
Feeling annoyed, disturbed, or maybe even grieved? The Apostle Peter's bold preaching in Acts 4 wasn't met with polite applause—it was met with annoyance, anger and a strong desire to shut it down by people who allowed their emotions to rule over them.
This sermon explores the incredible cost of proclaiming Jesus and the cost of letting our emotions go unchecked. Our emotions can serve as a warning sign, prompting us to humbly examine our hearts and run to the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross, who endured the ultimate grief so we never have to.
