The Apostles are teaching and then thrown in prison. God breaks them out of prison and instructs them go teach in the temple. I am not exactly sure where they were teaching before they were arrested. But I am pretty sure that going to teach in the temple right after you were arrested for teaching is the stupidest thing that they could do. When God tells us something, in our own save yourself kind of way it can sound very stupid. The apostles were very obedient. Think how the authority must have felt when they found out they lost prisoners. They were probably thinking they are a million miles from here we will never find them. Nope they were in the one place they would be sure to find them. Ha! If it were me I am thinking once God broke me out and if he told me to go back to what you were doing right before you were arrested I would probably be having some words with God or I would at least be thinking some words.
Have you been stupid God lately.
