Scripture: Acts 5:1-10

 

In Acts 5:1-10, Peter is not “turning-the-other-cheek.”  He is not threatening.  He is announcing the judgment of Ananias and Sapphira.  And before anyone could arrange a committal service, he commanded them to be taken out and buried. If that was our relative, we would have been greatly offended.  How is it that Peter could preach the Priestly but then demonstrate the Kingly?  Our problem is that we have spent so much time preaching the Priestly that we have never considered the demonstration of the Kingly.  And yet the Scripture is not silent about that realm.  Isn’t it time to recover the full measure of who Jesus is?  He is the Judge of all the Earth and we should be demanding covenant justice on antichrist politicians intent on silencing the church!
