Acts 3, 4

Peter and John boldly preached Christ to the Jews of Jerusalem. The number of new converts approached 5000 souls. It was a marvelous response to God’s witness through the Disciples. Because they had created such a religious uproar, they were brought before the High Priest and others of the ruling element. Again, they boldly proclaimed that Christ was Lord, and that there was salvation in no other way. They could have easily been immediately taken outside and stoned to death for speaking what was considered heresy by the Jews.

The boldness of Peter and John is available to us through the power of the same Holy Spirit.
