Speak!
by PamFord Davis

Admittedly, I’m no expert at dog training. I’ve never trained canines and have not observed trainers at work. My knowledge is limited to what I’ve watched in movies or television programs.

I have been impressed. Experts have the ability to teach dogs how to heel, roll over, fetch, shake hands and speak.

Christians faithfully speak the message of salvation and forgiveness.

“There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to people, and we must be saved by it.”

When they observed the boldness of Peter and John and realized that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed and recognized that they had been with Jesus. And since they saw the man who had been healed standing with them, they had nothing to say in response. After they had ordered them to leave the Sanhedrin, they conferred among themselves, saying, ‘What should we do with these men? For an obvious sign, evident to all who live in Jerusalem, has been done through them, and we cannot deny it! However, so this does not spread any further among the people, let’s threaten them against speaking to anyone in this name again.’ So they called for them and ordered them not to preach or teach at all in the name of Jesus.

But Peter and John answered them, ‘Whether it’s right in the sight of God for us to listen to you rather than to God, you decide;  for we are unable to stop speaking about what we have seen and heard (Acts 4:12-20 HCSB).”
