THE BIG TALK
This again is a real trial?
Are these things said really true?
Acts 6
11 So they persuaded some men to lie about Stephen, saying, “We heard him blaspheme Moses, and even God.”
Blaspheme against God
Acts 13
Acts 6:
destroy temple = God’s holy place
Jesus accused the same

26:57-
Jesus before the Council
57 Then the people who had arrested Jesus led him to the home of Caiaphas, the high priest, where the teachers of religious law and the elders had gathered.
58 Meanwhile, Peter followed him at a distance and came to the high priest’s courtyard.
He went in and sat with the guards and waited to see how it would all end.
59 Inside, the leading priests and the entire high council were trying to find witnesses who would lie about Jesus, so they could put him to death.
60 But even though they found many who agreed to give false witness, they could not use anyone’s testimony.
Finally, two men came forward 61 who declared, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the Temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’
”

What do you have to say for yourself?”
63 But Jesus remained silent.
Then the high priest said to him, “I demand in the name of the living God—tell us if you are the Messiah, the Son of God.”
