    In chapter twenty-four Tertullus, the Roman lawyer that represented the Jews that wanted to kill Paul, stated to Felix these opening remarks

    in Acts 24:2, “And when he was called forth, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, Seeing that by thee we enjoy great quietness, and that very worthy deeds are done unto this nation by thy providence,” As we stated previously, those were nice words, but none of them were true, they were simply ...read more

    In Acts twenty-four we find the apostle Paul is being held in custody as a common criminal, waiting for his accusers to arrive, and is to appear before Antonius Felix, the governor of Judaea.

    Felix was a politician in every sense of the word. He had risen from being a subservient person, to the position of Governor of Judaea. He got his start through the influence of his brother at the imperial court of Claudius. He married three Princesses, which also elevated his career. The first ...read more

    In previous studies, we find all that had been prophesied about the apostle Paul had come to pass. He was taken by a mob that almost killed him, but was rescued by the chief captain who took him away from that crowd.

    He was brought before a council that did not care a thing about justice. When he observed that the council was composed of both Pharisees and Sadducees, he divided the group by stating he was a Pharisee, and a firm believer in miracles and the resurrection. Since the Sadducees did not believe ...read more

    When Paul arrived in Jerusalem, he gave a report of how God had been using him to bring scores of Gentiles to the Lord.

    . After his report, the church leaders in Jerusalem told him about the devout Jews who were still practicing the Jewish ceremonial laws along with their salvation. They suggested that Paul, rather than incite a riot, join four men who had just completed their Nazarite vow, so when the devout Jews ...read more

    When Paul and Silas left Thessalonica, they left it in a turmoil.

    The Jews that did not believe, showed their jealousy by attacking the household of Jason, who had lodged Paul and Silas, since they could not take their revenge out on them personally. Verse 10, says, "And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming ...read more

  • Acts Of The Apostles (20 Of 39)

    Today we enjoy the freedom we have in America, and think very little about the men and women who bought and paid for it!

    Illus: It is easy for me to understand why some of the old soldiers who faced death itself, some even lost legs, eyes, arms, etc., become angry when they see people who have done nothing to win, or keep, their freedom, wanting to burn the symbol of that freedom, the flag. Well, that is not the ...read more

    When God miraculously opened the door for the gentiles to be saved, it was an exciting time for His church.

    God selected Paul and Barnabas to carry out His first missionary assignment. They were not self-appointed, nor were they appointed by men. As they were serving the Lord, the Holy Ghost called them out, saying, “Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work...” They were APPOINTED BY GOD, SENT BY ...read more

    Paul wrote to young Timothy and said, “…that thou...war a good warfare.”

    Illus: It is obvious, from much of Paul’s writings, that he thought of the Christian life as a warfare. He spoke of Christians as soldiers, in training, discipline, and even in having weapons. In the Book of Acts, we can see so clearly that Christians are soldiers. In one chapter we read ...read more

    The apostle Paul was a very unusual man. He also had a very unusual conversion.

    There is a small similarity between Saul’s conversion and that of the Ethiopian eunuch. They were both converted on a road. One of the differences in these two conversion is that the Ethiopian eunuch was converted in a chariot, and Saul was converted laying on the ground. It is a marvelous thing ...read more

    In chapter 5, we discovered that the Lord had to purge the early church of hypocrisy.

    The people learned to fear the Lord, and those who loved Him went on serving Him faithfully, filling all of Jerusalem with their doctrine. Look at Acts 5:28, We read, “Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your ...read more

    Luke wrote to Theophilus, telling him of some of the great events of the early church.

    As he tells of these events, it is like an unwinding story in which one event leads into the next. For example, after Pentecost, he leads into chapter 3, and tells of Peter and John going into the temple. He tells of the man who had been crippled from birth, asking them for alms. Luke related ...read more

  • Acts Of The Apostles (6 Of 39)

    At the beginning of the third chapter of Acts, the story of the glorious healing of the man who had been lame from birth is recorded.

    This man was a picture of the sinner, who is born spiritually lame. God did an undeniable work in his life, but the ungodly, though religious, would not accept it. It is still the same today. God does great things, and still ungodly men will not accept what He does, and can do, for mankind. ...read more

    A young man saw a sign in a restaurant window that read, “Help wanted." He needed a job, so he went inside to apply for the job.

    He needed a job, so he went inside to apply for the job. He asked the owner about the job description, and what it paid. • The man said, "The job pays $25.00 a week plus all meals." • The young man said, "Is the food good here?" • The owner rubbed his big tummy, and said, ...read more
