Andrew Bonar explores the three Ananiases in the Bible, contrasting their lives and spiritual states. The first Ananias represents those who are religiously active yet spiritually dead, relying on external forms without true faith. The second Ananias appears to be a believer but lacks genuine transformation, ultimately facing dire consequences for his hypocrisy. In contrast, the third Ananias is a true disciple, obedient to Christ and filled with the Holy Spirit, exemplifying a life of faith and service. Bonar emphasizes the importance of true faith over mere profession, urging listeners to examine their own hearts.
