March 15, 2009--WHEN THE TRUTH CUTS TO THE HEART

Stephen's address to the Sanhedrin contains two key elements that cut to the heart of his listeners:
#1. His reference to the Jersualem Temple
#2. His accusation that their forefathers had resisted the Holy Spirit and rejected God's messengers.
The message explains the fore-mentioned elements and explores the two options we face WHEN THE TRUTH CUTS TO THE HEART.
