Living the Spirit-Filled Life
June 4, 2023
James Fuoco calls believers to live a Spirit-filled life by looking at Peter and John in Acts 4:1–31, showing how the Holy Spirit empowered them to stand firm under persecution, proclaim salvation in Jesus’ name with bold authority, and obey God despite threats. He highlights four marks of such a life: expecting opposition for righteousness, speaking with Christ-centered authority, remaining obedient under pressure, and pursuing unity and prayerful dependence within the church.

He explains that true Christian fellowship is marked by shared purpose, stewardship, sacrificial care for one another, and bold witness to the resurrection, while warning that hypocrisy and dishonesty threaten both unity and God’s glory.
