  1. Sermons From The New Testament

  2. Paul’s Defense Before Felix Acts 24.24-26 Background: Paul Is Under Arrest Because Of Riot In Jerusalem… Charges: “Gentile In The Temple…” Not True! “Teaching Us To Forsake Moses…” Not True! “Teaching Us Not To Circumcise Sons…” Not True! “Teaching Us Not To Follow Customs…” Not True!

  3. Recounts His Conversion… Import Of 22.16— This Tells Us… Paul Was Not Converted “On The Road To Damascus…” Baptism Washes Away Sins… Baptism Is How One “Calls Upon The Name Of The Lord!”

  4. “A Light To The Gentiles” This Causes A Riot… A Hunger Strike Till Paul Is Dead! Sent To The Governor, Felix After 5 Days…

  5. A Hearing— The Charges: This Man Is A Pest! He Caused Insurrection… He’s A Ringleader Of A Sect… He Had Profaned The Temple

  6. Paul Answer: He’s Only Been In The City For 12 Days Mighty Busy In That Short Time! Never Disputed With Anyone In The Temple… Never Stirred Up A Crowd… Never Caused Trouble In Any Synagogue… Never Any Trouble Anywhere In The City… Absolutely No Evidence Or Proof! WHERE ARE HIS ACCUSERS?

  7. He Has To Admit… He Follows The Way… He Serves God… He Believes The Law & Prophets… He Holds To One Hope: Resurrection Of The Dead! He Thus Has Clear Conscience In All These Matters Acts 23.1…I Timothy 1.13

  8. What Have Been His Actions? He Came Bringing Alms And Offerings… He Was At The End Of An Act Of Purification… There Was No Crowd, No Trouble… His Accusers Lied Even When Examined By The Council… No Charges But 1: “I Am Accused Of Believing God’s Promise Of Resurrection!”

  9. What Do We Learn? We may get accused of things we have not done Some may put forth false charges… But then fail to back them up when challenged Some fail to believe Biblical doctrines… Then accuse you of believing errors! Believe God! Believe His promises! Keep a clear conscience! Be faithful unto death!
