Lesson 1121

(Lesson 1121)(10-18-14) Acts 4:1-4

"And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them, Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead. And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide. Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand."



Today's quote tells us that, after they had, that day, preached salvation through faith in the blood of Jesus, Peter and John were taken into custody by the Jewish authority.

This lesson also tells us that from among the throng who had gathered, because of the message preached, and the miracle performed by Peter and John, five thousand more souls were saved and converted from among the Jews.~
