Acts 28:11-31

Listen to Acts 28:11-31

11 post menses autem tres navigavimus in nave alexandrina quae in insula hiemaverat cui erat insigne Castorum

12 et cum venissemus Syracusam mansimus ibi triduo

13 inde circumlegentes devenimus Regium et post unum diem flante austro secunda die venimus Puteolos

14 ubi inventis fratribus rogati sumus manere apud eos dies septem et sic venimus Romam

15 et inde cum audissent fratres occurrerunt nobis usque ad Appii Forum et Tribus Tabernis quos cum vidisset Paulus gratias agens Deo accepit fiduciam

16 cum venissemus autem Romam permissum est Paulo manere sibimet cum custodiente se milite

17 post tertium autem diem convocavit primos Iudaeorum cumque convenissent dicebat eis ego viri fratres nihil adversus plebem faciens aut morem paternum vinctus ab Hierosolymis traditus sum in manus Romanorum

18 qui cum interrogationem de me habuissent voluerunt me dimittere eo quod nulla causa esset mortis in me

19 contradicentibus autem Iudaeis coactus sum appellare Caesarem non quasi gentem meam habens aliquid accusare

20 propter hanc igitur causam rogavi vos videre et adloqui propter spem enim Israhel catena hac circumdatus sum

21 at illi dixerunt ad eum nos neque litteras accepimus de te a Iudaea neque adveniens aliquis fratrum nuntiavit aut locutus est quid de te malum

22 rogamus autem a te audire quae sentis nam de secta hac notum est nobis quia ubique ei contradicitur

23 cum constituissent autem illi diem venerunt ad eum in hospitium plures quibus exponebat testificans regnum Dei suadensque eos de Iesu ex lege Mosi et prophetis a mane usque ad vesperam

24 et quidam credebant his quae dicebantur quidam vero non credebant

25 cumque invicem non essent consentientes discedebant dicente Paulo unum verbum quia bene Spiritus Sanctus locutus est per Esaiam prophetam ad patres nostros

26 dicens vade ad populum istum et dic aure audietis et non intellegetis et videntes videbitis et non perspicietis

27 incrassatum est enim cor populi huius et auribus graviter audierunt et oculos suos conpresserunt ne forte videant oculis et auribus audiant et corde intellegant et convertantur et sanem illos

28 notum ergo sit vobis quoniam gentibus missum est hoc salutare Dei ipsi et audient

29 []

30 mansit autem biennio toto in suo conducto et suscipiebat omnes qui ingrediebantur ad eum

31 praedicans regnum Dei et docens quae sunt de Domino Iesu Christo cum omni fiducia sine prohibitione

From Home To Rome - C

Jack Hibbs

Paul lived and died the same message, to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them, and through the power of the Holy Spirit, teaching all that the Lord commands. Paul fought the good fight and kept the faith. And, in the end, was beheaded for being a Christian in April 67 AD as declared by the Emperor Nero. But, laid up for him in Heaven is a crown of righteousness, and not only for him, but for all who have loved our Lord, Jesus Christ, and look forward to His coming!

From Home To Rome - B

Jack Hibbs

Paul had a great reception in Rome, from the other believers there, and it greatly encouraged him. And, it’s from Rome, chained to a guard where he would write the New Testament books of Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, Philemon, I & II Timothy, and Titus. Paul, the greatest opponent against Christianity, became its greatest promoter to have ever lived.

From Rome To Home - Part A

Jack Hibbs

God saw Paul through to the end. And, the commitment God made to Paul is the same He makes for us. God will see us through to the end of our journey in life. And, like Paul, it’s not about how much we do for the sake of the Gospel, but our motive behind it. Without love, and without the encouragement of other believers, we won’t be able to overcome the difficult challenges of being a Christ follower.
