—Acts 4:13-22

It is inevitable that we will face ridicule and condemnation for our faith at some point. Jesus warned us it would happen (Matthew 10:22; John 15:18-21) and many stories from the Bible are given as examples (Noah, James, Stephen, and of course Christ Himself immediately come to mind). When we meet opposition, we can strengthen our resolve by remembering the words of Peter and John: “Whether it is right in the sight of God” (v.19). Choosing to always give priority to the righteous will of God is a fool-proof measure for achieving boldness in our faith.
