Acts Chapter 5
The death of Ananias and Sapphira is often misunderstood, being less about what was given and more about hypocrisy. How this was addressed is clearly the work of God. The Apostles continued proclaiming the truth, however the Jewish leadership reacted negativily to this. However, the results were not what the Jewish leadership expected. But a highly respected Pharisee advised them how they should address these new teachings.

Acts Chapter 11
The word that Gentiles also received salvation spread throughout Judea. The Jewish believers took issue with that. Thus, Peter explained all he had done explaining this was the work of the God, for they also received the gift of the Holy Spirit. After hearing this the Jewish believers glorified God, seeing this was God's work. Then, those who scattered because of what happened to Stephen went to Antioch. The Church there grew so rapidly, Barnabas was sent there, along with Saul of Tarsus. Prophets came as well, one being Agabus, who declared a great famine was coming. Therefore, the disciples in Judea sent a contribution to help them.

Acts Chapter 23
Paul is now presenting his case before the High Priest Ananias. He presents a case which put at odds the Pharisees and the Sadducee's, which caused dissention between the two groups, which caused a plot to kill Paul. Because of this, Paul was placed in a jail that neither group had access to, and eventually sent Paul to Felix. the governor.
