It says in verse 15, and all day that sat in the council, looking steadfastly on him,
saw his face as it had been a face of an angel.
Stephen was unfazed by everything that just happened.
His countenance is described as that of an angel.
What was their countenance like?
Ugly, menacing.
Look at our countenance.
Look at the lives we're living.
Are we living a life that repulses people?
Are the things that we do, traditional marriage, having children, that's not repulsive.
That's normal.
Look at our countenance.
It's angelic.
It's righteous.
It's good.
Look at the people who are just sitting in the council, ready to pass judgment, watching
this all play out.
Look at our countenance.
Look at righteous, godly Christians, and compare it to the other countenance.
The green-haired freak who looked like they got into a fight with a BB gun and lost, and
shaved half their head, and is holding up some sign somewhere, crying out how they want
to murder babies in the womb, run down some man of God, or how they want to molest your
children and get your kids on hormone therapy.
Go look at their countenance.
Go look what they're into.
Go look at their life.
Go look at what they're doing, and compare it to honest, wholesome living.
