Elijah was greatly encouraged when he heard there were 7,000 that hadn’t bowed the knee to Baal. Likewise, when we gather with our fellow saints – like we do today for the first time after the Covid lockdown – we feel (or should) encouraged.

CloseBe honest: God's execution of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5 seems a little harsh. For starters, it was "only one sin," and secondly, didn't Peter just have a bigger sin when he denied Jesus three times? Why would someone who was shown so much mercy for that deny someone else the chance to repent? If it seems harsh, that's because it is. That's kind of the point. But I would argue that there's more to the story than just lying = death. A lot more. If only we would take the time to dive in and be honest with the Text.
