Ananias, Sapphira & Prison Escapes - Acts 5

Why did Ananias and Sapphira die instantly in Acts 5? Is the God of the New Testament really different from the Old Testament? In this episode of The Bible Study Podcast, we take a first-pass look at Acts Chapter 5—exploring the deadly trap of "spiritual jealousy," the pressure to look profound, and what it actually means to pursue the root over the fruit. We also dive into Peter’s supernatural prison break, Gamaliel’s surprising advice to the council, and why the early apostles rejoiced after being beaten for their faith.
