In this episode, we continue our verse-by-verse study of Acts 8; specifically, verses 18-25.  We examine the shocking moment when Simon the sorcerer tries to buy the power of the Holy Spirit. Though he believed and was baptized, Simon’s request reveals a heart still driven by greed and self-interest.

Peter’s strong rebuke exposes a powerful spiritual truth: the gifts of God—and salvation through Jesus—cannot be purchased, manipulated, or used for personal gain. This passage challenges us to examine the difference between intellectual belief and genuine repentance, and reminds us that Jesus freely forgives all who truly turn to Him.

Join us as we explore false faith, true repentance, and the transforming power of a heart made right with God.
