Acts of the Apostles (Page 6)

Acts 26:6-8 As Paul continues his testimony before Agrippa, he points out the irony that the Jews are seeking his death because he has embraced the One who is the Hope of Israel.

Acts 25:23-26:6 Festus is anxious to be able to send an account of the charges against Paul when Paul is sent to Rome to appear before Caesar. A hearing is therefore arranged in the presence of King Agrippa to establish these charges.

Acts 25:13-22 When King Agrippa arrives, Festus introduces him to Paul’s case, possibly hoping for some insight, as Agrippa is Jewish. Festus does not understand the case or why the Jews hate Paul so much.

Acts 25:1-12 After Felix rejects the Gospel, Paul stands trial before his successor, Festus, the new Governor of Caesarea. As a favor to the Jews, Festus wanted to send Paul to Jerusalem to be tried, but Paul appealed to Caesar in Rome.

Acts 24:24-27 For some reason, Felix and Drusilla are curious to hear Paul privately concerning the Gospel he preaches. Fearless as ever, Paul does not water down the message but deals with God’s standards and with the judgment that is coming…

Acts 24:1-23 This morning we again look at the continuing battle between Good and Evil. Paul has been brought before the governor, Felix, in a court of law, in which: * Paul’s enemies attack with lies. * Paul powerfully refutes their lies.

Acts 23:11-35 This morning we looked at Christ’s promise in two points. * His promise to bring Paul safely to Rome. * How the Lord began to fulfill that promise.

Acts 22:22-23:10 This morning, we return to an earlier theme in the book of Acts, seeing a reminder of the hatred the world has for Christ and Christians.

Acts 22:1-21 After Paul is apprehended by the Roman guard, he is given a chance to speak to the mob that had just tried to kill him. In his speech, Paul shares: * His life before Christ. * His conversion. * His call. * His life after conversion.

Acts 21:27-40 After Paul stays in Jerusalem and is completing the days of purification in keeping with his vows, he is recognized by some Jews from Asia. They riot around him and try to kill him. A Centurion carries Paul back to the barracks.

Acts 21:15-26 Despite the warnings he had received, Paul undertakes the last leg of his journey to Jerusalem, accompanied by faithful disciples.

Acts 21:1-14 As Paul continues his journey to Jerusalem, the disciples beg him not to go, because they foresee the danger and possible death that await him there. After Paul convinces them that it is God’s will for him to go, they submit.
