In this message, the speaker Noel explores the human tendency to draw personal "lines" based on our beliefs, contrasting personal examples (like opinions on pineapple pizza) with the historical and religious lines drawn by the Sadducees in the Bible. The Sadducees' disbelief in the resurrection of the dead put them in direct conflict with Peter and John after a miraculous healing. Noel uses this tension in Acts 4 to emphasize the exclusive and central claim of salvation through Jesus Christ, urging listeners to examine whether their own self-imposed "lines" are hindering their willingness to embrace Jesus, the one who crossed the line of death for them.
