About this listen
Last Sunday morning, we heard from Acts 5:1-11 together. In this startling passage, Ananias and Sapphira try to lie to God, and they are struck dead on the spot. What can this shocking story teach us? We saw that it is foolish to try to hide our sin from God, for God always knows our hearts. As the holy God who always does what is right, God will judge our sin. Although we might not fall dead right away like Ananias and Sapphira, our sin will be judged—either in Jesus or in us. Acts 5 encourages us to stop hiding our sin, to confess it to God, and to trust in Jesus to save us. Indeed, for Christians, Jesus has already paid the full price for our sins, and there is no more judgment left for us to take! This week, take some time to honestly confess your sins to God, take some specific steps to address those sins, and thank God for His mercy and grace to us in Jesus.
