Acts 4 | Packinghouse Greg
Peter and John heal a beggar and are arrested for preaching Jesus’ resurrection; before the Sanhedrin, Peter (filled with the Spirit) says the man was healed “by the name of Jesus Christ… whom you crucified, whom God raised,” declaring salvation is found in no one else (Acts 4:10–12). The council, unable to deny the miracle, threatens them to be silent, but they answer they must obey God and speak what they’ve seen and heard, and are released. Real authority is Jesus’ name and resurrection, not religious or political control; time with Jesus plus the Spirit is enough to witness; when human commands contradict Christ’s commission, obey God with nonviolent courage.
Packinghouse’s Sunday morning worship service from October 12, 2025.
