Week 5, Day 3 2/2/2022 Scripture: Acts 7 “When the members of the Sanhedrin heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at him. But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. “Look,” he said, “I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.”” (Acts 7:54–56) Jesus is King. Stephen sees a beautiful vision of Christ, standing at the right hand of God. This is further affirmation of the truth of the Gospel. Despite the Sanhedrin’s best efforts to suppress the message, it holds true. Tertullian is credited for saying, “the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.” As much as they try to suppress the story of the Gospel, Jesus’ glory spreads.
