Acts 27 tells a story of high drama—a storm at sea, a shipwreck, and a nefarious plot to kill those aboard the ship. Through it all, Paul trusted in God.
Acts 24 continues the story of Paul on trial. The Jews used flattery to accuse him, but Paul used facts. He was on trial for his faith in the resurrection.
What was the purpose of the Law, and how were Old Testament believers saved? The Law points to our need for grace before a holy God, and the foundation of salvation has always been Christ.
