    The Apostles continued to preach and perform miracles, attracting large crowds. This made the high priest jealous, so he had the Apostles arrested and imprisoned. However, an angel freed them during the night and instructed them to continue preaching in the temple. When the high priest discovered they had escaped, he had them brought before the Sanhedrin. Although flogged, the Apostles continued preaching daily that Jesus was the Savior.

    THE APOSTLES ARE PERSECUTED

    Acts 5:12-42

    THE WORD IN PICTURES


    Description

    IMAGE

    Acts 5:12-42

    Gods power was seen


    in many miracles the
    Apostles did among
    the people. More and
    more believed in Jesus.
    People brought the sick
    out into the streets and
    crowds gathered from the
    surrounding towns. All of
    them were healed.

    01

    02
    The High Priest and his
    associates became very
    jealous of the popularity
    of the Apostles. So they
    had them arrested and
    put in prison.

    03
    During the night an
    angel of the Lord
    opened the doors
    of the prison and let
    them out. Go into the
    Temple courts, the angel
    instructed, and tell the
    people all about this
    new life.

    SPACE FOR NOTES

    At day break the apostles


    obeyed and started teaching
    in the Temple courts.
    Meanwhile the High priest
    was being told that the
    prison was securely locked
    with the guards outside the
    doors but the Apostles were
    not inside.

    04

    05
    Someone arrived to report,
    The men you put in jail
    are teaching in the Temple
    courts.
    The captain and his officers
    were dispatched to bring
    the Apostles before the
    Jewish leaders of the
    Sanhedrin.

    06
    We gave you strict orders
    not to teach in the name
    of Jesus, the High Priest
    fumed. You have filled the
    city with your teaching
    and are determined to
    make us guilty for the
    death of Jesus.

    We must obey God


    before human beings,
    Peter replied. God has
    raised Jesus from the
    dead and has exalted Him
    as Prince and Saviour so
    that bring us to repent
    and have forgiveness for
    our sins. We are witnesses
    to this.

    07

    08

    When the Jewish leaders


    heard this they were so
    furious they wanted to put
    the Apostles to death.

    MY NOTES

    However, a respected
    Pharisee, Gamaliel, asked
    that the Apostles were taken
    outside. Some in the past have
    claimed to be the Messiah
    and gathered followers but
    none of them have succeeded,
    Gamaliel pointed out. If these
    men are using human power
    they will fail, but if God is
    behind them you will not be
    able to stop them.

    09

    10
    Gamaliels speech persuaded
    the Jewish leaders not to
    kill the Apostles. Instead the
    Apostles were brought back
    in and flogged. Then they
    were ordered once more
    not to speak in the name of
    Jesus.

    11
    The Apostles left,
    not feeling sorry for
    themselves, but happy
    they had been worthy to
    suffer for Jesus.
    Every day they continued
    to tell others that Jesus
    was the Saviour, the
    Messiah.
