"Blessed are the Persecuted" Acts 4:1-22 | Art Reyes

What does it look like to live so filled with the Spirit that it brings about opposition? In Acts 4, we see Peter and John, filled with the Holy Spirit, courageously standing for the Gospel despite facing persecution from the very people they were trying to reach! This is a reminder that suffering for Christ is a blessing, and that God's work is never chained, even when His servants are. Calvary Chapel of Downey exists to glorify God, grow in our relationship with Jesus Christ, as we love others, and systematically teach the Bible chapter by chapter and verse by verse.
