What stood out today: v24:25 Paul spoke about faith in Christ Jesus. As Paul discoursed on righteousness, self-control and the judgment to come, Felix was afraid. v26:28 Then Agrippa said to Paul, "Do you think that in such a short time you can persuade me to be a Christian?" Paul replied, "Short time or long—I pray God that not only you but all who are listening to me today may become what I am.
My response: Jesus, I am struck at the similarity of situation between a friend of mine and Paul. Men attacking them both, being put on the side for a time out. Yet for Paul your purposes prevailed. Paul shared the Gospel with rulers and authorities and then sent to Rome just as you said in 23:11: “As you have testified about me in Jerusalem, so you must also testify in Rome.” Jesus, it will be exciting to see what you have in store for my friend.
