Witness the sobering consequences of deceit in the church as Ananias and Sapphira’s attempt to gain glory for themselves leads to a powerful display of God’s justice. In this episode of The Jesus Podcast, Ananias and Sapphira conspire to deceive the apostles by withholding part of their offering while seeking public recognition for their gift. When confronted by Peter, their dishonesty brings swift judgment from God, reminding the early church of the seriousness of integrity and generosity in their fellowship.

Today's Bible verse is Matthew 6:4, from the King James Version.
