Today we are reading Acts 24. In this chapter we read about Paul on trial before Governor Felix and the Jewish High Priest. ”But Felix, having a rather accurate knowledge of the Way, put them off, saying, “When Lysias the tribune comes down, I will decide your case.” Then he gave orders to the centurion that he should be kept in custody but have some liberty, and that none of his friends should be prevented from attending to his needs. After some days Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, and he sent for Paul and heard him speak about faith in Christ Jesus. And as he reasoned about righteousness and self-control and the coming judgment, Felix was alarmed and said, “Go away for the present. When I get an opportunity I will summon you.” At the same time he hoped that money would be given him by Paul. So he sent for him often and conversed with him. When two years had elapsed, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus. And desiring to do the Jews a favor, Felix left Paul in prison.“ Acts 24:22-27 ESV I heard something recently about opposition to our faith. “The opposition is spiritual and so is our mission. The opposition is demonic. We, on the other hand, are led, guided, empowered and comforted by the Holy Spirit. When have you experienced demonic opposition? How did you respond? May bless you and keep you. Pastor Tim
