Paul Was on Trial
Acts 22-23
1. What did Paul say that made the Jewish leaders argue?
Paul brought up the resurrection of the dead, which he knew the Pharisees and Sadducees did not agree on. God used this argument to lead the Roman commander to get Paul to safety. As a Roman citizen, Paul was protected by the Romans. But ultimately, God was faithful to help and protect Paul.
2. That night, God spoke to Paul. What did He say?
The Lord told Paul to have courage and continue to tell people about Jesus in Rome. God was working out all the details so that Paul could continue the missionary journey God had called him too. God was preparing the way and was in control even when the Jewish leaders made a secret plan to kill Paul. God cared for Paul and helped Paul escape the evil plan of the Jewish leaders.
