Deliver us from evil and lead us not into temptation
In Acts 5, the story of Ananias and Sapphira shows the humanity and imperfections in Christian communities and the need to be watchful against the enemys attempts to harm. The reading emphasizes the power of God to deliver and protect his own, the importance of actions, thoughts, and words, and the new wave of persecution. Christians must ask God to deliver them from evil and temptation and put on the armor of God to protect themselves from the devils schemes. The grace of the Lord is with us, and we should give glory to his name in everything we do.

Beware of modern Gibeonites!
The church must be cautious about making alliances that may harm its mission. Discernment is crucial, and seeking Gods counsel is essential. Beware of modern Gibeonites who may bring false doctrines disguised as religion.
