The Gift God Didn't Receive

Ananias and Sapphira thought they could deceive the Holy Spirit and get away with it. Their story in Acts 5:1–11 is a sobering reminder that shared sin is still sin, silent agreement is participation, and God cannot be mocked.

In this message, Pastor Michael Larson unpacks the Greek and Hebrew roots behind this powerful passage — revealing why unity in truth brings blessing, but unity in deception brings judgment. Learn how to guard your partnerships, purify your motives, and prepare your life as a true altar for God’s fire to fall.

Key Takeaway: God receives the gift of a surrendered heart, not the performance of empty sacrifice.
