The Witness of Life Together

What is the power and what are the advantages of a group of Christians as a witnessing community?  In Acts 3–4:22 the apostles Peter and John had been brought before the Sanhedrin, the Jewish council of priests and elders.  After considerable debate, they were released but sternly charged not to continue to preach the gospel.   Yet Peter tells them, “… we cannot keep from speaking about what we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:20).   Acts 4:23–37 gives us an inside look at a community of witnesses to Jesus.
