Befuddling Unbelief: Ceasing Not to Teach and Preach Jesus Christ

The general population of Jerusalem that did not believe were filled with awe, wonder, and fear. They did not even dare to join the church: 5:11 [join themselves to, means “glue” to be firmly fastened.] The church is made up of people joined to each other, making up a temple, not a collection of individuals who waver and shift. The church was joined in one accord; the rest refused to be glued to it out of fear and unbelief. Preaching and teaching Jesus Christ left unbelievers bewildered and befuddled.
