CVBC Acts 13:44-52

In this sermon from Acts 13, we encounter a timeless message about the advancement of God's truth in the face of opposition. As we delve into Paul and Barnabas's journey, we're reminded that when the gospel spreads, resistance often follows. Yet, this opposition doesn't deter God's plan. Instead, it becomes an opportunity for believers to demonstrate unwavering faith and boldness. The text challenges us to consider: How do we respond when our beliefs are challenged? Do we, like Paul, turn to Scripture for guidance and strength? This passage beautifully illustrates God's sovereignty in salvation, reminding us that our faith is a gift from Him. The joy experienced by the disciples, even amid persecution, serves as a testament to the transformative power of the Holy Spirit in our lives. It prompts us to examine the source of our own joy and contentment, especially during difficult times.
