## Resource

In Acts 5:17-42, the apostles are flogged after being arrested for telling people about the new life they can receive in Christ. As they are released, they rejoice and count themselves worthy of suffering the same way Jesus suffered for us. Life in the Spirit for us means that He will lead and empower us to rejoice in our sufferings as He uses them for a greater good. #acts5 #acts #lifeinthespirit #suffering #sufferingandfaith #sermon THE GRACE BLOG WEBSITE: https://thegraceblog.com/blog BUY ME A COFFEE: https://buymeacoffee.com/jasonjz YOUTUBE CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXMnDedWeuLFRu2aIgWzPAA
