Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem






The Acts of the Apostles



(New Testament)

Acts 8





 8 And Saul approved of their killing him.

The Church Persecuted and Scattered

On that day a great persecution broke out against the church in Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. 2 Godly men buried Stephen and mourned deeply for him. 3 But Saul began to destroy the church. Going from house to house, he dragged off both men and women and put them in prison.

(End of Scripture Passage)



Chapter headings and Verse Numbers were non-existent in the original texts, but they are very convenient for looking things up. Sometimes, the breaks and headings can be awkwardly placed, breaking up the narrative. Today's first verse in Chapter 8 probably should have been at the end of Chapter 7. But, that being said, it is striking here as it stands alone.

 8 And Saul approved of their killing him.

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem






So much is said in this short little bit from the Book of Acts. From passively holding coats for murderers, Saul slips gleefully into the active persecution and murder of the new sect, who are not even called "Christians" yet (that happens later). Saul is so obsessed with this persecution that he even obtains writs from the Religious Rulers to go to foreign cities and round up the Believers there! So he goes from "Approval" to actual "Action" in what seems to be a mere catching of nreath between sentences here in the Text. What a Lesson!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

"The counsel of the LORD stands forever, The plans of His heart from generation to generation. Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, The people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance..” Psalm 33 NASB

What seems like a blow and low point for the church will soon turn around.

Give me hope.

Joining in prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem, left that other site, and for our beloved America during the chaos of the aftermath of the mid-terms.
