- Thanks for the invitation! B-)

- Below is the account you are refering to. Enjoy it.
-
-
- The Leadership of Israel brought in the disciples of Yeshua:
-
- Acts 5:28 "We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name," he
- said. "Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are
- determined to make us guilty of this man's blood."
-
- Acts 5:29 Peter and the other apostles replied: "We must obey God
- rather than men!
-
- Acts 5:30 The God of our fathers raised Jesus from the dead--whom
- you had killed by hanging him on a tree.
-
- Acts 5:31 God exalted him to his own right hand as Prince and Savior
- that he might give repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel.
- -----------------------------
- Acts 5:32 We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy
- Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him."
-
- Acts 5:33 When they heard this, they were furious and wanted to put
- them to death.
-
- Here is what you are refering to:
- -------------------------------->
- Acts 5:34-39 But a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, who
- was honored by all the people, stood up in the Sanhedrin and ordered
- that the men be put outside for a little while.
- Then he addressed them: "Men of Israel, consider carefully
- what you intend to do to these men.
- Some time ago Theudas appeared, claiming to be somebody,
- and about four hundred men rallied to him. He was killed, all his
- followers were dispersed, and it all came to nothing.
- After him, Judas the Galilean appeared in the days of the
- census and led a band of people in revolt. He too was killed, and
- all his followers were scattered.
- Therefore, in the present case I advise you: Leave these
- men alone! Let them go! For if their purpose or activity is of human
- origin, it will fail.
- But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these
- men; you will only find yourselves fighting against God."
-
- History records that these men (like those today) were fighting against
- God almighty!
-
- Acts 5:40 His speech persuaded them. They called the apostles in and
- had them flogged. Then they ordered them not to speak in the name of
- Jesus, and let them go.
-
- Acts 5:41 The apostles left the Sanhedrin, rejoicing because they
- had been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name.
-
- Acts 5:42 Day after day, in the temple courts and from house to
- house, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the good news
- that Jesus is the Christ.
-
- Amen!!

- Yeshua said:
- For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that
- of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly
- not enter the kingdom of heaven. -Matthew 5:20
