The Wonder of Belonging to Father God (Acts 4:13)

Roger Thrower, June 2, 2024
Part of the Acts: "Returning to our Roots" series, preached at a Sunday Morning service

The term “bosom” (kolpos) refers to the front of the body, between the arms. Kolpos was used to refer to the fold in the shepherd’s robe – that is, the hollow formed by the upper forepart of a rather loose garment bound by a girdle or sash. It was used for carrying things and is where a shepherd would tuck a hurt or scared lamb that needed a shepherd’s care. It is the place closest to the heart, denoting intimacy.
