An Outline of Acts Chapter 5
Ananias and Sapphira (5:1-11)
Peter rebukes Ananias and Sapphira his wife for their hypocrisy, and they fall down dead
The Apostles Heal Many (5:12-16)
The apostles perform many miracles, and more are added to the believers.
The Apostles Persecuted (5:17-42)
The apostles are imprisoned. But they are delivered by an angel telling them to preach openly to all. After their teaching accordingly in the temple, and before the Sanhedrin, they are in danger to be killed. Through the advice of Gamaliel, a great counsellor among the Jews, they are kept alive, and are only beaten. The apostles rejoice because they had been counted worthy to suffer for Jesus' Name, and continue to teach and proclaim the good news day afer day.
