The narrative of Ananias and Sapphira seems a bit disturbing and out of place in the Church Age. But as this podcast demonstrates, that incident served to establish several important concepts that were highly necessary for the very early church to understand. Amongst these was the nature of God, as well as the principle of apostolic authority. We'll examine apostolic authority, catalog its qualities, and explore why it was necessary. We'll also discover why it was temporary and no longer exists today.
