Acts of the Apostles | The Providence of God - Episode 55
In this episode, Pastor Dorrell further presents the imprisonment of the Apostle Paul and his testimony before Felix. What becomes increasingly clear is Paul’s persistent resistance to any contemporary political identity. He was not in opposition to the Jews nor was he a threat to the Romans. His first and primary identity was that of a Christian. His message was that of grace. It would be wise for Christians living in a politically charged world to take note. Our identity is Christ, and our message is grace. This message is however offensive to the world. In the case of Paul, contrary to the odds against him, His life did not end until the sovereign God ordained it. As God’s children facing a similar task, we can rest in the perfect providence of God.
