Go...Tell the People

~~~ Acts of the Apostles 5:17-26 ~~~ Psalm 34 ~~~ John 3:16-21 ~~~

...whoever lives the truth comes to the light,
so that his works may be clearly seen as done in God.

God sent the angels to open the doors of the prison...

to release the Apostles instructing them to speak in the temple.

From the beginning, it was jealousy
that resulted in the apostles imprisonment.
The Sadducees thought that with Jesus out of the picture
 everything would return to 'normal'.
They completely missed the whole point of the mission of Jesus.

The darkness of the cell was broken.

The Apostles walked freely into the light of the day.

The guards confirmed
 that indeed they had been securely

 locked in their cells.

They were at a loss to explain how the men had escaped.

Obviously it was the power of God

 that brought them forth to speak.

 Go...tell the people everything about this life.

God did not want the Apostles locked up in a dark cell.

God wanted them out in the light

 sharing everything about the joy and love of living 

as he had intended them to live.

God intends us to live in his love.

He gave the life of his son, Jesus, for us.

God so loved the world that he gave his only-begotten Son,
so that everyone who believes in him might not perish
but might have eternal life.

This eternal life is life in the light of God...
the eternal light...
the light that can never be extinguished.
There is nothing that can conceal the light of Christ.

May we be blessed to always live in the light of the truth.
The truth being; we are loved beyond measure.
There is no greater love...
~~~Peace~~~
