9: The Gall of Bitterness and the Bond of Iniquity (Acts 8:23)
02/17/25 • 25 min
Simon Magus wants to buy the spiritual power, giving of the Holy Spirit, from Peter. This desire to pay for this ability so that Simon can be great with the people is the gall of bitterness. When we seek to get or use something religious so that we can be more important we are in the gull of bitterness.
Acts 8:23
23 For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity.”
