But when our time there had ended, we set out on our journey. All the disciples, with their wives and children, accompanied us out of the city and knelt down on the beach to pray with us.

When we had finished our voyage from Tyre, we landed at Ptolemais, where we greeted the brothers and stayed with them for a day.

When we heard this, we and the people there pleaded with Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.

The next day Paul went in with us to see James, and all the elders were present.

Therefore do what we advise you. There are four men with us who have taken a vow.

Take these men, purify yourself along with them, and pay their expenses so they can have their heads shaved. Then everyone will know that there is no truth to these rumors about you, but that you also live in obedience to the law.

So the next day Paul took the men and purified himself along with them. Then he entered the temple to give notice of the date when their purification would be complete and the offering would be made for each of them.

For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, and they assumed that Paul had brought him into the temple.

The commander came up and arrested Paul, ordering that he be bound with two chains. Then he asked who he was and what he had done.

For the crowd that followed him kept shouting, “Away with him!”

A great clamor arose, and some scribes from the party of the Pharisees got up and contended sharply, “We find nothing wrong with this man. What if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?”

When daylight came, the Jews formed a conspiracy and bound themselves with an oath not to eat or drink until they had killed Paul.

They went to the chief priests and elders and said, “We have bound ourselves with a solemn oath not to eat anything until we have killed Paul.

Do not let them persuade you, because more than forty men are waiting to ambush him. They have bound themselves with an oath not to eat or drink until they have killed him; they are ready now, awaiting your consent.”

This man was seized by the Jews, and they were about to kill him when I came with my troops to rescue him. For I had learned that he is a Roman citizen,

The next day they returned to the barracks and let the horsemen go on with him.

Five days later the high priest Ananias came down with some elders and a lawyer named Tertullus, who presented to the governor their case against Paul.

In every way and everywhere, most excellent Felix, we acknowledge this with all gratitude.

Yet my accusers did not find me debating with anyone in the temple or riling up a crowd in the synagogues or in the city.

After several days, Felix returned with his wife Drusilla, who was a Jewess. He sent for Paul and listened to him speak about faith in Christ Jesus.

At the same time, he was hoping that Paul would offer him a bribe. So he sent for Paul frequently and talked with him.

So if this man has done anything wrong, let some of your leaders come down with me and accuse him there.”

After spending no more than eight or ten days with them, Festus went down to Caesarea. The next day he sat on the judgment seat and ordered that Paul be brought in.

Then Festus conferred with his council and replied, “You have appealed to Caesar. To Caesar you will go!”

So when they came here with me, I did not delay. The next day I sat on the judgment seat and ordered that the man be brought in.

But when his accusers rose to speak, they did not charge him with any of the crimes I had expected.

They only had some contentions with him regarding their own religion and a certain Jesus who had died, but whom Paul affirmed to be alive.

The next day Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp and entered the auditorium, along with the commanders and leading men of the city. And Festus ordered that Paul be brought in.

The next day Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp and entered the auditorium, along with the commanders and leading men of the city. And Festus ordered that Paul be brought in.

Then Festus said, “King Agrippa and all who are present with us, you see this man. The whole Jewish community has petitioned me about him, both here and in Jerusalem, crying out that he ought not to live any longer.

…especially since you are acquainted with all the Jewish customs and controversies. I beg you, therefore, to listen to me patiently.

And that is what I did in Jerusalem. With authority from the chief priests I put many of the saints in prison, and when they were condemned to death, I cast my vote against them.

In this pursuit I was on my way to Damascus with the authority and commission of the chief priests.

Then the king and the governor rose, along with Bernice and those seated with them.

Then the king and the governor rose, along with Bernice and those seated with them.

We boarded an Adramyttian ship about to sail for ports along the coast of Asia, and we put out to sea. Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica, was with us.

The next day we landed at Sidon, and Julius treated Paul with consideration, allowing him to visit his friends and receive their care.

After we had moved along the coast with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near the town of Lasea.

“Men, I can see that our voyage will be filled with disaster and great loss, not only to ship and cargo, but to our own lives as well.”

On the third day, they threw the ship’s tackle overboard with their own hands.

…and said, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar. And look, God has granted you the lives of all who sail with you.’

But Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “Unless these men remain with the ship, you cannot be saved.”

When daylight came, they did not recognize the land, but they sighted a bay with a sandy beach, where they decided to run the ship aground if they could.

There we found some brothers who invited us to spend the week with them. And so we came to Rome.

When we arrived in Rome, Paul was permitted to stay by himself, with a soldier to guard him.

So for this reason I have called to see you and speak with you. It is because of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain.”

So for this reason I have called to see you and speak with you. It is because of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain.”

So they set a day to meet with Paul, and many people came to the place he was staying. He expounded to them from morning to evening, testifying about the kingdom of God and persuading them about Jesus from the Law of Moses and the Prophets.

For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’

…and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by His resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.

God, whom I serve with my spirit in preaching the gospel of His Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you

Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity for the dishonoring of their bodies with one another.

Likewise, the men abandoned natural relations with women and burned with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed, and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. They are gossips,

Much in every way. First of all, they have been entrusted with the very words of God.

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may walk in newness of life.

For if we have been united with Him like this in His death, we will certainly also be united with Him in His resurrection.

For if we have been united with Him like this in His death, we will certainly also be united with Him in His resurrection.

We know that our old self was crucified with Him so that the body of sin might be rendered powerless, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.

Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him.

Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him.

So this is the principle I have discovered: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me.

Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I serve the law of God, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I serve the law of God, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.

And if we are children, then we are heirs: heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ—if indeed we suffer with Him, so that we may also be glorified with Him.

And if we are children, then we are heirs: heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ—if indeed we suffer with Him, so that we may also be glorified with Him.

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know how we ought to pray, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groans too deep for words.

He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, freely give us all things?

What if God, intending to show His wrath and make His power known, bore with great patience the vessels of His wrath, prepared for destruction?

…that if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

For with your heart you believe and are justified, and with your mouth you confess and are saved.

For with your heart you believe and are justified, and with your mouth you confess and are saved.

And this is My covenant with them when I take away their sins.”

For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but think of yourself with sober judgment, according to the measure of faith God has given you.

Just as each of us has one body with many members, and not all members have the same function,

…if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is giving, let him give generously; if it is leading, let him lead with diligence; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully.

Share with the saints who are in need. Practice hospitality.

Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep.

Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep.

Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but associate with the lowly. Do not be conceited.

Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but associate with the lowly. Do not be conceited.

If it is possible on your part, live at peace with everyone.

Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Instead, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh.

We who are strong ought to bear with the shortcomings of the weak and not to please ourselves.

Now may the God who gives endurance and encouragement grant you harmony with one another in Christ Jesus,

…so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Again, it says: “Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people.”

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

I myself am convinced, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, brimming with knowledge, and able to instruct one another.
