The Martyrdom of Stephen (Acts – Week 11)

The Martyrdom of Stephen (Acts – Week 11)

 

Acts 7

 

Stephen had a revelation that had become the theological foundation of the New Testament Church. This could only come by the Spirit, and it would become absolutely essential to the future of the gospel.

But it was this same revelation that got Stephen killed. Stephen bore witness to Jesus before the mob, and Jesus stood to bear witness to him before heaven.

But a young man named Saul would pick up that bloody seed from the ground under Stephen and it would grow into the first missionary work of the Church.
