Civil DISobedience=spiritual Obedience S5e31 Acts4:19
Peter and John wake up in prison after healing a lame guy with faith yesterday. They do not know if this day will be their day of crucifixion. It happened to the last guy that got arrested in Jerusalem. Here's the good part: standing with them is the previously lame, then leaping, now STANDING guy. He's there. There have been three venue changes. It didn't happen by accident. Apparently the offense is the healing and preaching of Jesus' name, so my guess is that the lame guy was NOT arrested, he's there boldly, courageously. He too, doesn't know if he is going to be crucified for this faith that is less than 24 hours old. Listen as we hear how HIS faith, HIS courage, HIS standing works to protect Peter.
Also of note is the CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE we see from Peter and John to the authorities. They yield to the Author of all authority when the given authorities prevent what is due the AUTHOR. Spiritual obedience = Civil disobedience, at least in this case.
For all intents and purposes, Peter should have been crucified on this day. He was not. Listen and find out WHY. It has to do with the lame guy who would just NOT GO AWAY.
