The Leadership of the Church Part 1 5/10/2015

Remember there were still those that were angry about Jesus and his claims, and angry at his followers over these claims of his resurrection. People that wanted to take these disciples out. They probably were not able to find a job, many were against them. Each other was all that they had. At this point, most of us would not be concerned with the spiritual things, but rather "I gotta find a job", "protect myself", "how can I support my family", "hide". Maybe some of them were ready to go out right then and start the Church – why wait? Just fresh off the resurrection and now the ascension – there had to be an excitement in the air – why not hit it while it’s hot?
Most important to them, simply obedience.
