Today’s Thought “Travelling Mercies” G. Ward Acts 7 54 “Now when they heard this, they were infuriated, and they began gnashing their teeth at him. 55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked intently into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God.” Praise for Holy God’s eternal presence allowed Stephen’s narrative to flow while those entirely oppositional to Christ would hear. How many know those without good listening skills hear with partial understanding, because they’re often with a pre-meditative, argumentative attitude? Altogether, these possessing attitudes of contentiousness must never become opportunity for any believing in unadulterated Truth to determine these as hopeless; particularly in view of these oppositional forces that stoned Stephen to death for telling the Truth, having laid their outer coats at the feet of their superior officer, who apparently sanctioned this killing (v.58) to later become an Apostle to the same Christ he betrayed.
