Dishonest to God - Sapphira

Women Of The New Testament

June 21, 2022 • Acts 4:32

Sapphira and her husband Annians are a warning against living counterfeit christian lives. God is seeking true worshippers, those who will worship Him in spirit and truth (John 4:23-24). Our desire to please Christ and to live righteously must be greater than how we look before men. We must aim to live sincere lives and ask the Holy spirit to reveal and test our hearts on a daily basis so that we do not deceive ourselves or others.

Herodias

June 14, 2022 • Pat McKinnon • Mark 6:14–29

Historians record her as Herod the Great's granddaughter. She was first married to Phillip (Herod the Great's son, her uncle). Gets divorced then marries a man who was also divorced (her other uncle, Phillip's brother, Herod).

Lydia - The Business Women

June 21, 2022 • Kaye Moyo • Acts 16:11–15

We know that Lydia was a lady from Thyatira and she lived in Philippi. She was a successful business woman who sold purple cloth and dye. Purple cloth was very valuable and expensive. It was often worn as a sign of nobility and royalty so we are pretty sure that she was wealthy. She was among the Gentile women who gathered outside Philippi on each Sabbath to pray to the God of the Jews.

Priscilla

June 28, 2022 • Lee Venning • Acts 18:1–4

Priscilla and Aquila were a team. Paul commends Aquila and Priscilla as his “fellow workers” who risked their lives for him. Priscilla is usually mentioned first.
