Acts 27:27 ,Paul (1) • Paul’s witness during the shipwreck • Destination: Italy • Purpose: delivery of Paul • Julius :a centurion of the AugustanRegimen • Name of the ship:Adramyttuim • The projected course: the coasts of Asia,Sidon,shelter of Cypres,Cicilia, Pamphylia,Myra (city of Lycia) • Change of the ship to Alexandrian ship to Italy • Cnidus,,,strong winds

  3. Shelter of Crete off Salone • Fair Haven, near the city of Lasea • Strong winds, storm • Paul’s warning = not to sail !!! Predict the disaster , loss of cargos, ship and lives and warning against sail • Centurion: not listen to Paul but yielded to helmsman and owner of the ship • The majority opinion; sail to Phoenix (Harbor of Crete)

  4. Take Home Points(1) • Majority opinion can be wrong ! • Majority opinion can not be right all the time !

  5. Acts 27:27 ,Paul (2) • Euloclydon:the tempestuous head wind • Shelter of Clauda • Shipwreck: throw away the cargos, • ship’s tackle • Paul’s words:1.takeheart 2. no loss oflife 3.loss of the ship

  6. Take Home Point • When the disaster hits, At the time of Real Emergency, under the circumstance of no time to lose, Hang onto the only really important thing to you. • Ask this Question? • What is dearest to your own heart and soul ?

  7. The very next action at the time of real Emergency is dependent on what is the dearest thing to own heart . • What is inside of yourself will come out spontaneously ( without inhibition or restraint) at the time of real Emergency. • Emergency= no cover up , surface peeled, mask removed, make up removed, = real self revealed,

  8. The dearest to your heart Mind Body Action

  9. inside outside

  10. Take Home Points(2) • At the time of Emergency, You must dump, or throw away ,or remove any unnecessary , non-essential materials from you in order to lighten the load , burden, or weight just to save your own life in a hurry ! • Time of Emergency, no time to lose ! • Act immediately or too late for any thing

  11. Important Question(1) • What is really essential material to you ? • Really important material to you = what ?

  12. Important Question(2) • What do you run away with you in your hand at the time of real Emergency ? • What do you grab in your own hands when you run away for your own life at the time of Emergency ?

  13. Important Question(3) • It is really sobering question for everyone to think about and act. • It is important to know what kind decision you make today because • Thedecision for today determines the directionof course for tomorrow.

  14. Decision and destiny (1) • Your decision determines your destiny !

  15. Decision and destiny (2) Destiny decision

  16. Acts 27:27 ,Paul (3) • Day 14 • At Midnight the sailor sensed that they are drawing near the some land • Midnight : salvation, life not death,(+) • Sailors : attempt to escape from the ship! • Paul’s word:" Unless you stay in the ship, you can not be saved” • The soldier cut the rope of the skiff (no way of escape, no other alternative)

  17. Many choices = many decisions to make • No alternative =one decision to make one direction to go

  18. Acts 27:27 ,Paul (4) • Day 14 th: Paul’s instruction and recommendation to his fellow soldiers, prisoners and others; take nourishment (eat) for this is for your survival • Paul gave thanks to God in the presence of all and ate the bread under the difficult circumstances (shipwreck) • The total number of persons on board=276 • All ate and encouraged

  19. Acts 27:27 ,Paul (5) • After the meal and threw away the foods (cargo) into the sea to lighten the ship • Fatal shipwreck near the land • Everyone (100 %) got to the island safely either by boards or swimming • 100 % survival as Paul’s prediction

  20. Take home Point • Survival requires action. • By boards= hanging onto things floating or floatable= piggy bag or join in or cash into something dependable, something reliable , something firm, something solid. Something stable. you are not in power. you are not in driving seat. you are not in charge. somebody else in charge of your life. • By swimming= you do your part, own effort, use up all available skills and resources

  21.

  23. Spring feast • Fall feast

  24. How many days for spring feast ? • Answer = 52 days from pass over to Pentecost • How many days for fall feast ? • answer= 22 days from trumpet to tabernacle, 30 days short !

  25. Spring=52 days Fall = 22 days

  26. Spring feast is supposed to be the same as fall feast in meaning . • There is a discrepancy between the days of spring feast duration and days of fall feast duration ( 52 days vs. 22 days ) • How do we reconcile the difference?

  27. Spring Feast ≠ (=) Fall Feast?

  28. Spring feast = fall feast

  29. Spring feast (52 days).lev 23:4-14 • 1mo-10 th:pass over lamb selection • 1-14 :pass over lamb killing, • 1- 15----unleavended bread, bitter herb, duration=7 d • 1-16:first fruits, sheaf waving, • Starting point of 50 days for Pentecost • (1)-50:pentecost,: 50 days from wave sheaf to Pentecost feast • 52 days from pass over

  35. Uncleanness = defilement =dirtiness =not holy= unholy= not sacred= not suitable for worship, not fit for worship, =need to be cleaned up or cleansed or washed prior to appearing before the God out of respect and reverence.

  36. Far away journey= a long distance journey from Jerusalem= make a preparation or arrangement to come back toward Jerusalem= focus of attention and action on Jerusalem= preparation time , arrangement time, planning time, make up time ,“ make up examination “,

  37. In case of family disaster or illness, or emergency, you miss the real examination. • But teacher gave you an opportunity to take “ make up examination “ later than other students so that you can pass the test and pass the course. • Real purpose of “ make up examination”=let you pass the test and go onto the next course. • The name of game = passing the test, not failing the test

  42. When will Jesus come back to the earth again? • When is the Christ’s second coming ? • Why is it important for me to know the time of Christ’s second coming back to the earth again ?

  43. The consciousness and awareness of the Christ’s second coming will produce: • Self examination of my life’s priority • Reorganization of life’s priorities • Get ready for myself and let others ready for Christ’s second coming as well so that I and others do not miss the chance to meet Jesus and have a “passport “ to get into Heaven with Jesus when the time comes.
