The Powerful Proclamation of the Word (Acts 14:1–7)

Scripture: Acts 14:1–7

Acts 14 presents gospel proclamation that produces belief, provokes resistance, persists in ministry, divides a community, and prompts a plot. This message shows how a clearly proclaimed gospel changes allegiances around Christ, bringing some together in faith while others unite in resistance.
