Peter Roselle: Escaping the Grip of Relationship Ticks (Galatians 1:10)
Peter speaks at King of Kings Worship Center on March 30, 2022. Quotes: “The Holy Spirit changes everyone and everything. If there is any doubt about the power of the Spirit, just look at Peter. When Jesus was captured, Peter cowered in fear that he might be identified as a man who loved Jesus. Now this same man is preaching, healing, and pointing his finger in the face of Jewish officials who have captured him and John. With a boldness that is not his own, he blames them for the death of Jesus and does not cower at their show of violence.”

Be blessed! You’ve been “blessed to be a blessing.” (Genesis 12:2) Pay it forward!

Proverbs 29 (MSG)
24 Befriend an outlaw and become an enemy to yourself. When the victims cry out, you’ll be included in their curses if you’re a coward to their cause in court.
25 The fear of human opinion disables; trusting in God protects you from that.
26 Everyone tries to get help from the leader, but only God will give us justice.

Galatians 1 (Voice)
10 Do you think I care about the approval of men or about the approval of God? Do you think I am on a mission to please people? If I am still spinning my wheels trying to please men, then there is no way I can be a servant of the Anointed One, the Liberating King.

Acts 4
1 the head of the temple police and some members of the Sadducean party interrupted Peter and John. 
2 They were annoyed because Peter and John were enthusiastically teaching that in Jesus, resurrection of the dead is possible—an idea the Sadducees completely rejected. 
3 So they arrested Peter, John, and the man who was healed and kept them in jail overnight. 
4 But during these few afternoon hours between the man’s miraculous healing and their arrest, Peter and John already had convinced about 5,000 more people to believe their message about Jesus!

13 Now the leaders were surprised and confused. They looked at Peter and John and realized they were typical peasants—uneducated, utterly ordinary fellows—with extraordinary confidence. The leaders recognized them as companions of Jesus, 
14 then they turned their attention to the third man standing beside them—recently lame, now standing tall and healthy. What could thy say in response to all this?

18 The leaders brought the prisoners back in and prohibited them from doing any more speaking or teaching in the name of Jesus. 
19 Peter and John listened quietly and then replied,
Peter and John: You are the judges here, so we’ll leave it up to you to judge whether it is right in the sight of God to obey your commands or God’s. 
20 But one thing we can tell you: we cannot possibly restrain ourselves from speaking about what we have seen and heard with our own eyes and ears.

23 Peter and John, upon their release, went right to their friends and told the story—including the warning from the council. 
24 The whole community responded with this prayer to God:
29 Now, Lord, take note of their intimidations intended to silence us. Grant us, Your servants, the courageous confidence we need to go ahead and proclaim Your message 
30 while You reach out Your hand to heal people, enabling us to perform signs and wonders through the name of Your holy servant Jesus.

Commentary
The Holy Spirit changes everyone and everything. If there is any doubt about the power of the Spirit, just look at Peter. When Jesus was captured, Peter cowered in fear that he might be identified as a man who loved Jesus. Now this same man is preaching, healing, and pointing his finger in the face of Jewish officials who have captured him and John. With a boldness that is not his own, he blames them for the death of Jesus and does not cower at their show of violence.

1 Corinthians 4 (Voice)
4 Although I am not aware of any flaw that might exclude me from this divine service, that’s not the reason I stand acquitted—the only supreme judge, our Lord, will examine me in the proper time. 
5 So resist the temptation to act as judges before all the evidence is in. When the Lord comes, He will draw our buried motives, thoughts, and deeds (even things we don’t know or admit to ourselves) out of the dark shadows of our hearts into His light.

John 12 (Voice)
42 Many leaders secretly believed in Him but would not declare their faith because the Pharisees continued their threats to expel all His followers from the synagogue; 
43 here’s why: they loved to please men more than they desired to glorify God.

When love comes as God designed it to, we identify it properly.
Through affection, wise discipline, and affirmation, we see sacrificial love 
When we don't receive God’s design of love, we identify …
