Acts 25:1 - 26:32

ActsSteve Gregg
In "Acts 25:1 - 26:32," Steve Gregg provides an overview of the events surrounding Paul's imprisonment and trial before Roman governors Felix and Festus. The Jews against Paul continuously attempt to assassinate him, leading to him being transported with a heavy-armed guard by the Romans. Paul pleads innocent to all accusations and appeals to Caesar, ultimately standing trial in Rome as a Roman prisoner. The message of the Gospel, according to Paul and Jesus, is not about changing political structures or seizing power but changing people's hearts and thoughts, emphasizing the need for repentance, faith in Jesus as the risen Savior, and doing works befitting of repentance.
