Changed Lives Make a Difference“Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and per-ceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they mar-veled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus” (Acts 4:13,NKJV).The New Testament church exploded in growth. There were 3,000baptized on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:41). Thousands more wereadded to the church a few weeks later (Acts 4:4). Soon the authoritiesrecognized what was happening. These New Testament believers hadbeen with Christ. Their lives were changed. They were transformed byHis grace, and they could not keep silent.Read Acts 4:1–20. What happened here? What happened whenthe authorities tried to silence Peter and John? What was theirresponse?_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________These believers were new in Christ, and they had to tell their story.Peter, a loudmouthed fisherman, was transformed by the grace of God.James and John, the sons of thunder who had difficulty controllingtheir tempers, were transformed by the grace of God. Thomas the skep-tic was transformed by the grace of God. The disciples and membersof the early church each had their own stories to tell, and they couldnot keep silent. Notice this powerful statement by Ellen G. White in thebook Steps to Christ: “No sooner does one come to Christ than thereis born in his heart a desire to make known to others what a preciousfriend he has found in Jesus; the saving and sanctifying truth cannot beshut up in his heart.”—Page 78.Notice, too, what the religious leaders said in Acts 4:16. They openlyacknowledged the reality of the miracle that had been performed—thehealed man was standing right before them. Even with all this, theyrefused to change their attitude. And yet, despite this open defiance,Peter and John were not going to back down from their witness.What relationship is there between knowing Christ and sharingChrist? Why is knowing Christ personally so essential to ourbeing able to witness about Him?
