Study 12 From The book of
Acts Is: Acts 7:44-8:4
1.
In his conclusion
(7:44-53) how does Stephen teach the divine origin and yet the inadequacy of both
the Tabernacle or ‘tent of witness’ and the Temple or ‘house’ which Solomon
built? What charges does he bring
against his accusers? To what positive
truths here indicated or implied ought we to pay heed?
2.
Consider the likeness
between Stephen and his Lord in his life, character, and in his death. Where did this likeness come from? How may we
follow his example? Cf. 2 Cor. 3:18.
3.
What were the results for
the Church of Stephen’s witness (a) in suffering (see 8:1, 3) and (b) in expansion
(see 8:4, 5; 11:19, 20)? Notice what God can do through one man fully yielded to
His service.
