What Will They Do With The Truth?
September 26, 2025
KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:
Acts 7:54
When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.
THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:
People do some strange things when confronted with their sin. Some find themselves before an almighty God and realize the only hope for redemption of their sin is in the person of Jesus Christ. Some will wonder with amazement at the awesome price paid and intellectually try very hard to figure it out. The sad thing is that too often, while they are still trying to figure it all out, they die, and then it is all figured out for them. Sadly, at that time, it is too late to change your mind.
Still, yet, we find there are many people today who respond in the same ways as the people referred to in today’s verse. These people had heard Stephen share with them the truth about Jesus Christ as their Saviour. When confronted with their sin, they are cut to the heart, or in other words, the truth cuts like a knife to their conscience. However, these people respond in anger instead of repentance
How can we know how a person will react to the gospel? Will they repent of their sin, question their salvation, or get angry at the reality of it all? How can we know? That is easy. Just share it with them and watch.
CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:
An interesting footnote to all this is that Stephen was stoned to death for sharing the gospel. Nevertheless, even at the end of his life, Stephen asked God to forgive them for what they were doing. It is ironic that the love he had for these people in life, which caused him to share Christ with them, was the love he had for them even as these same people put him to death. The love of God is not something you can figure out or understand until you have it in you. It is beyond us. It is God in us.
Who might you show God’s love to today that you may consider unlovable?
IF YOU ARE JOURNALING:

Do I find within this reading a CHALLENGE for my life?
What are one or two things I WILL DO today or this week to accept that CHALLENGE?
