This is the question that Peter presented to the council when the Apostles were warned not to preach, teach or heal in the Name of Jesus, Acts 5:17-29. After this they "......called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worty to suffer shame for his name.And daily in the temple, and in every house, (they ceased not) to teach and preach Jesus Christ" Acts 5:40b-42.
Today we are told the same thing. Are we not willing to suffer shame for His Name as they were. Are we any different that we should obey man rather than God?
