The Coming Test
Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
Acts 5:29
“Some will urge that the Lord is not so particular in his requirements; that it is not their duty to keep the Sabbath strictly at so great loss, or to place themselves where they will be brought in conflict with the laws of the land. But here is just where the test is coming, whether we will honor the law of God above the requirements of men. … Here is where we are to prove our loyalty.”
