Acts 5:38-42
5:38 So in this case I say to you, stay away from these men and leave them alone, because if this plan or this undertaking originates with people, it will come to nothing,
5:39 but if it is from God, you will not be able to stop them, or you may even be found fighting against God.” He convinced them,
5:40 and they summoned the apostles and had them beaten. Then they ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus and released them.
5:41 So they left the council rejoicing because they had been considered worthy to suffer dishonor for the sake of the name.
5:42 And every day both in the temple courts and from house to house, they did not stop teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus was the Christ.
