Description

Three Trials Paul underwent between Acts 24-27.
As we examine these, we take points of application that we should take comfort that we are not alone, that God will never leave us or forsake us.

That we should be challenged to how we use our tongues

That we should have confidence in Gods word, as Paul did. If God says it will happen, it will..

That we should be as Paul is; steady and purposeful...

We should always point to the one Gospel..look how Paul takes his opportunity to testify for Christ and the gospel.

Note the three responses to Paul

  1. Felix is scared as Paul testifies. We should have fear before our God and in relation to our Sin and the Judgement to come. This sin should drive us to Christ, repentance and the cross.

  2. Foolishness; Festus interrupts Paul in foolishness

  3. Faltering. Agrippa faltered before taking the final step and coming to Christ.

The only response we should have is faith in Christ, the Gospel and the Love of God. The Power of redemptive Love means we can have life to the full.
