Study 43 From The Book of Acts Is: Acts 21:37-
22:16
In the face of a murderous mob, and by
permission of the captain of the guard, who at first misunderstood who he was,
Paul makes his defence.
- Paul
uses, not a sermon, but personal testimony. Notice what he says about his
background, religious activity, conversion and calling to serve the Lord
Jesus. Have you realized how powerful a weapon you possess in your
personal Christian testimony? Do you use it?
- Paul
seeks to put no unnecessary offence before the Jews: notice the language
he uses, and what he says about Ananias as a Jew. Here was a man being utterly faithful to
Christ, and concerned for his enemies.
Can you care, in the same way, for those who badly treat you?
