Stephen's speech in Acts chapter 7 is eye-opening! Stephen retells the patriarch's history emphasizing the numerous times they rejected, persecuted & murdered the prophets and men of God.
Rhetorically, Stephen says, "Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute?"
Not only did they persecute the prophets, but they also went after and worship other gods.
I wonder today, have we ceased? Do religious people still persecute men of God? Do religious people who confess to follow God, worship other gods instead?
Scattered thoughts on scripture, church life, technology, and family living.
