and<00:18:58.680><c> do</c><00:18:58.799><c> this?</c>

00:19:00.460 --> 00:19:05.019
He<00:19:00.960><c> went</c><00:19:01.420><c> to</c><00:19:01.779><c> the</c><00:19:01.880><c> high</c><00:19:02.119><c> priest,</c><00:19:03.339><c> his</c><00:19:03.599><c> own</c><00:19:03.940><c> initiative,</c>

and<00:19:06.000><c> he</c><00:19:06.180><c> said,</c><00:19:06.579><c> I</c><00:19:06.700><c> think</c><00:19:06.960><c> that</c><00:19:07.180><c> something</c><00:19:07.400><c> should</c><00:19:07.619><c> be</c><00:19:07.779><c> done</c>

00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:08.519
about<00:19:08.220><c> this.</c>

00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:10.880
The<00:19:09.079><c> whole</c><00:19:09.380><c> matter</c><00:19:09.579><c> is</c><00:19:10.039><c> spreading.</c>

00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:13.160
We've<00:19:11.559><c> really</c><00:19:11.819><c> got</c><00:19:12.039><c> to</c><00:19:12.359><c> contain</c><00:19:12.619><c> this</c><00:19:12.920><c> matter.</c>

00:19:13.660 --> 00:19:16.019
So<00:19:13.839><c> here</c><00:19:13.920><c> was</c><00:19:14.099><c> a</c><00:19:14.160><c> young</c><00:19:14.299><c> man</c><00:19:14.519><c> shaking</c><00:19:14.819><c> up</c><00:19:15.000><c> the</c><00:19:15.160><c> elders.</c>

00:19:18.539 --> 00:19:20.420
It<00:19:18.839><c> was</c><00:19:19.059><c> his</c><00:19:19.299><c> initiative.</c>

00:19:20.940 --> 00:19:23.359
And<00:19:21.059><c> the</c><00:19:21.240><c> perception</c><00:19:21.579><c> of</c><00:19:21.740><c> his</c><00:19:21.960><c> mind</c><00:19:22.099><c> was</c><00:19:22.359><c> such</c><00:19:22.519><c> that</c><00:19:22.779><c> he</c><00:19:23.119><c> could</c>

00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:26.299
see<00:19:23.640><c> that</c><00:19:24.119><c> the</c><00:19:24.359><c> matter</c><00:19:24.559><c> of</c><00:19:24.799><c> Christianity</c><00:19:25.640><c> was</c><00:19:26.000><c> growing,</c>

00:19:26.660 --> 00:19:29.019
and<00:19:26.779><c> something</c><00:19:27.119><c> had</c><00:19:27.440><c> to</c><00:19:27.599><c> be</c><00:19:27.700><c> done</c><00:19:27.859><c> about</c><00:19:28.099><c> that.</c>

00:19:29.059 --> 00:19:32.559
If<00:19:29.279><c> it</c><00:19:29.420><c> did</c><00:19:29.660><c> not,</c><00:19:29.920><c> then</c><00:19:30.059><c> the</c><00:19:30.240><c> traditions</c><00:19:30.579><c> of</c><00:19:30.779><c> the</c><00:19:30.940><c> fathers</c><00:19:31.200><c> were</c><00:19:31.440><c> in</c><00:19:31.619><c> question.</c>

00:19:32.700 --> 00:19:37.119
And<00:19:33.220><c> in</c><00:19:33.480><c> his</c><00:19:33.940><c> concern,</c><00:19:34.660><c> his</c><00:19:34.980><c> perception,</c><00:19:36.240><c> it</c><00:19:36.400><c> was</c><00:19:36.759><c> stronger</c>

00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:39.359
than<00:19:37.339><c> that</c><00:19:37.539><c> of</c><00:19:37.680><c> the</c><00:19:37.880><c> leaders</c><00:19:38.119><c> of</c><00:19:38.299><c> his</c><00:19:38.480><c> nation.</c>

00:19:39.859 --> 00:19:42.920
No<00:19:40.099><c> one</c><00:19:40.279><c> saw</c><00:19:40.480><c> that</c><00:19:40.680><c> issue</c><00:19:40.960><c> more</c><00:19:41.339><c> clearly</c><00:19:41.680><c> than</c><00:19:41.859><c> he</c><00:19:42.059><c> did.</c>

00:19:43.119 --> 00:19:45.599
And<00:19:43.240><c> so</c><00:19:43.420><c> driven</c><00:19:43.700><c> by</c><00:19:43.980><c> a</c><00:19:44.140><c> young</c><00:19:44.299><c> man's</c><00:19:44.720><c> zeal,</c><00:19:44.859><c> he</c><00:19:44.960><c> went</c><00:19:45.220><c> to</c><00:19:45.440><c> them</c>

00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:47.720
and<00:19:46.160><c> initiated</c><00:19:46.640><c> the</c><00:19:46.900><c> matter.</c>

00:19:48.339 --> 00:19:52.059
And<00:19:48.519><c> that's</c><00:19:48.759><c> very</c><00:19:49.099><c> typical,</c><00:19:49.640><c> very</c><00:19:50.099><c> typical,</c><00:19:51.240><c> of</c><00:19:51.519><c> all</c><00:19:51.779><c> that</c><00:19:51.900><c> we</c>

00:19:57.640 --> 00:20:01.619
This<00:19:58.579><c> is</c><00:19:58.819><c> my</c><00:19:59.000><c> picture</c><00:19:59.279><c> of</c><00:19:59.779><c> the</c><00:20:00.119><c> Apostle</c><00:20:00.539><c> Paul</c><00:20:00.759><c> and</c><00:20:00.920><c> his</c><00:20:01.119><c> youth</c>

00:20:01.619 --> 00:20:05.519

00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:15.460
Vibrant,<00:20:08.279><c> enthusiastic,</c><00:20:10.859><c> idealistic,</c><00:20:13.779><c> of</c><00:20:13.940><c> all</c><00:20:14.160><c> good</c><00:20:14.380><c> conscience.</c>

He<00:20:15.859><c> says</c><00:20:16.039><c> that,</c><00:20:16.500><c> and</c><00:20:16.599><c> he</c><00:20:16.759><c> meant</c><00:20:16.900><c> it.</c>

00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:30.059

And<00:31:33.940><c> suddenly</c><00:31:34.299><c> you're</c><00:31:34.559><c> in</c><00:31:34.660><c> a</c><00:31:34.880><c> totally</c><00:31:35.319><c> different</c><00:31:35.660><c> environment.</c>

00:31:50.299 --> 00:31:52.859
And<00:31:50.559><c> here</c><00:31:50.720><c> I</c><00:31:50.880><c> was</c><00:31:51.019><c> in</c><00:31:51.180><c> the</c><00:31:51.240><c> midst</c><00:31:51.400><c> of</c><00:31:51.579><c> a</c><00:31:51.660><c> very</c><00:31:52.039><c> different</c><00:31:52.339><c> environment.</c>

00:38:50.239 --> 00:38:54.219
It<00:38:50.239><c> was</c><00:38:50.380><c> an</c><00:38:50.440><c> unnecessary</c><00:38:50.940><c> division,</c><00:38:51.380><c> but</c><00:38:51.420><c> it</c><00:38:51.480><c> was</c><00:38:52.039><c> Jew</c><00:38:52.300><c> and</c><00:38:52.659><c> Gentile.</c>

He's<00:48:08.139><c> walking</c><00:48:08.480><c> in</c><00:48:08.659><c> the</c><00:48:08.860><c> steps</c><00:48:09.039><c> of</c><00:48:09.239><c> his</c><00:48:09.360><c> Master,</c>

00:48:11.119 --> 00:48:13.019
who<00:48:11.280><c> said</c><00:48:11.400><c> to</c><00:48:11.559><c> his</c><00:48:11.739><c> disciples</c><00:48:12.199><c> that</c><00:48:12.400><c> in</c><00:48:12.559><c> Jerusalem</c>

00:48:13.019 --> 00:48:15.179
there<00:48:13.340><c> awaited</c><00:48:13.780><c> him</c><00:48:14.000><c> bonds</c>

00:48:16.699 --> 00:48:19.599

00:48:20.099 --> 00:48:22.559
and<00:48:20.619><c> that</c><00:48:20.719><c> he</c><00:48:20.860><c> would</c><00:48:21.099><c> be</c><00:48:21.320><c> killed</c>

00:48:22.679 --> 00:48:24.739

00:48:25.739 --> 00:48:27.300
The<00:48:25.880><c> Apostle</c><00:48:26.199><c> Paul</c><00:48:26.400><c> is</c><00:48:26.559><c> very</c><00:48:26.860><c> conscious</c>

00:48:27.300 --> 00:48:30.820
that<00:48:27.500><c> he's</c><00:48:27.719><c> walking</c><00:48:28.199><c> in</c><00:48:28.900><c> the</c><00:48:29.099><c> same</c><00:48:29.619><c> steps.</c>

00:48:31.239 --> 00:48:33.119
He's<00:48:31.280><c> not</c><00:48:31.460><c> coming</c><00:48:31.679><c> down</c><00:48:31.940><c> from</c><00:48:32.139><c> the</c><00:48:32.260><c> Sea</c><00:48:32.460><c> of</c><00:48:32.719><c> Galilee,</c>

00:48:33.179 --> 00:48:37.460
which<00:48:33.360><c> was</c><00:48:33.699><c> the</c><00:48:34.360><c> Jewish</c><00:48:34.860><c> Sea</c><00:48:35.280><c> in</c><00:48:35.820><c> the</c><00:48:36.139><c> Jewish</c><00:48:36.480><c> land.</c>

00:48:38.199 --> 00:48:39.199
The<00:48:38.320><c> Lord</c><00:48:38.519><c> came</c><00:48:38.800><c> from</c><00:48:39.019><c> there,</c>

00:48:39.219 --> 00:48:40.599
but<00:48:39.340><c> this</c><00:48:39.619><c> man's</c><00:48:39.920><c> coming,</c><00:48:40.119><c> as</c><00:48:40.300><c> it</c><00:48:40.420><c> were,</c>

00:48:41.079 --> 00:48:42.199

00:48:42.219 --> 00:48:43.539

00:48:43.539 --> 00:48:45.639
And<00:48:43.539><c> he's</c><00:48:43.699><c> coming</c><00:48:43.940><c> back</c><00:48:44.360><c> to</c><00:48:44.599><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:48:47.059 --> 00:48:50.480
But<00:48:47.159><c> he</c><00:48:47.440><c> feels,</c><00:48:48.079><c> indeed,</c><00:48:49.159><c> can</c><00:48:49.340><c> deeply</c><00:48:49.719><c> sense</c>

00:48:50.480 --> 00:48:53.380
that<00:48:51.159><c> his</c><00:48:51.400><c> mission</c><00:48:51.679><c> was</c><00:48:51.920><c> just</c><00:48:52.199><c> as</c><00:48:52.360><c> the</c><00:48:52.500><c> Lord</c><00:48:52.639><c> Jesus</c><00:48:52.980><c> was.</c>

00:48:53.880 --> 00:48:55.139
But<00:48:54.019><c> didn't</c><00:48:54.199><c> the</c><00:48:54.360><c> Lord</c><00:48:54.500><c> also</c><00:48:54.900><c> know</c>

00:48:55.139 --> 00:48:57.380
that<00:48:56.059><c> what</c><00:48:56.239><c> lay</c><00:48:56.380><c> ahead</c><00:48:56.599><c> of</c><00:48:56.679><c> him</c><00:48:56.860><c> in</c><00:48:56.980><c> Jerusalem</c>

00:48:57.380 --> 00:48:59.760
were<00:48:57.679><c> all</c><00:48:57.940><c> those</c><00:48:58.420><c> same</c><00:48:58.699><c> things?</c>

00:49:00.099 --> 00:49:02.559
And<00:49:00.239><c> his</c><00:49:00.400><c> heart</c><00:49:00.579><c> is</c><00:49:00.840><c> breaking</c><00:49:01.260><c> for</c><00:49:01.440><c> his</c><00:49:01.699><c> nation.</c>

00:49:04.659 --> 00:49:09.179
He<00:49:04.880><c> also</c><00:49:05.119><c> knew,</c><00:49:05.340><c> too,</c><00:49:05.639><c> that</c><00:49:05.840><c> it's</c><00:49:06.440><c> only</c><00:49:06.940><c> 10</c><00:49:07.300><c> years</c>

00:49:09.179 --> 00:49:12.460
to<00:49:09.800><c> AD</c><00:49:10.139><c> 70</c><00:49:10.639><c> at</c><00:49:11.019><c> this</c><00:49:11.280><c> point.</c>

00:49:13.400 --> 00:49:17.059
We<00:49:13.579><c> could</c><00:49:13.719><c> be</c><00:49:13.940><c> almost</c><00:49:14.380><c> dogmatic</c><00:49:14.900><c> that</c><00:49:15.139><c> the</c><00:49:15.280><c> year</c><00:49:15.420><c> was</c><00:49:15.699><c> AD</c><00:49:15.940><c> 60.</c>

00:49:17.179 --> 00:49:19.179
If<00:49:17.320><c> it</c><00:49:17.480><c> wasn't,</c><00:49:17.679><c> it</c><00:49:17.719><c> was</c><00:49:17.940><c> very</c><00:49:18.400><c> close</c><00:49:18.659><c> to</c><00:49:19.179><c> that.</c>

00:49:19.440 --> 00:49:21.079
Only<00:49:19.780><c> 10</c><00:49:20.059><c> years.</c>

00:49:21.940 --> 00:49:23.500
And<00:49:22.059><c> he</c><00:49:22.159><c> knew</c><00:49:22.199><c> what</c><00:49:22.400><c> Daniel</c><00:49:22.699><c> the</c><00:49:22.920><c> prophet</c><00:49:23.159><c> said</c>

00:49:23.500 --> 00:49:25.920
would<00:49:23.820><c> happen</c><00:49:24.079><c> at</c><00:49:24.280><c> that</c><00:49:24.480><c> time,</c>

00:49:26.699 --> 00:49:29.199
how<00:49:27.219><c> that</c><00:49:27.739><c> the</c><00:49:28.199><c> abominable</c><00:49:28.619><c> desolator</c>

00:49:29.199 --> 00:49:30.780
would<00:49:29.400><c> destroy</c><00:49:29.780><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:49:31.619 --> 00:49:33.280
So<00:49:31.940><c> there</c><00:49:32.079><c> was</c><00:49:32.300><c> a</c><00:49:32.500><c> great</c><00:49:32.699><c> urgency.</c>

00:49:33.500 --> 00:49:35.119
It<00:49:33.539><c> wasn't</c><00:49:33.639><c> a</c><00:49:33.780><c> matter</c><00:49:33.860><c> of</c><00:49:33.980><c> his</c><00:49:34.179><c> personal</c><00:49:34.599><c> comforts.</c>

00:49:35.119 --> 00:49:38.079
It<00:49:35.139><c> was</c><00:49:35.400><c> great</c><00:49:35.719><c> urgency</c><00:49:36.340><c> that</c><00:49:36.980><c> he</c><00:49:37.159><c> should</c><00:49:37.340><c> go</c><00:49:37.579><c> to</c><00:49:37.800><c> Jerusalem</c>

00:49:38.079 --> 00:49:41.840
and<00:49:38.219><c> do</c><00:49:38.480><c> everything</c><00:49:38.940><c> he</c><00:49:39.199><c> could</c><00:49:39.559><c> to</c><00:49:40.820><c> save</c><00:49:41.119><c> his</c><00:49:41.400><c> own</c><00:49:41.619><c> people.</c>

00:49:41.880 --> 00:49:43.099
Look,<00:49:42.119><c> he</c><00:49:42.199><c> felt,</c><00:49:42.320><c> I</c><00:49:42.599><c> know</c><00:49:42.920><c> them.</c>

00:49:43.159 --> 00:49:43.960
I<00:49:43.239><c> know</c><00:49:43.539><c> their</c><00:49:43.780><c> mind.</c>

00:49:44.039 --> 00:49:46.000
I<00:49:44.099><c> know</c><00:49:44.260><c> better</c><00:49:44.480><c> than</c><00:49:44.739><c> anybody</c><00:49:45.139><c> where</c><00:49:45.519><c> they</c><00:49:45.800><c> are</c>

00:49:46.000 --> 00:49:48.440
because<00:49:46.420><c> I've</c><00:49:46.780><c> been</c><00:49:46.980><c> there</c><00:49:47.179><c> and</c><00:49:47.519><c> more.</c>

00:49:48.699 --> 00:49:50.199
I<00:49:49.000><c> was</c><00:49:49.179><c> more</c><00:49:49.519><c> fervent</c><00:49:49.780><c> than</c><00:49:50.000><c> any</c><00:49:50.119><c> of</c><00:49:50.179><c> them.</c>

00:49:50.199 --> 00:49:51.460
They<00:49:50.340><c> will</c><00:49:50.539><c> listen</c><00:49:50.760><c> to</c><00:49:50.980><c> my</c><00:49:51.139><c> message.</c>

00:49:51.699 --> 00:49:54.019
If<00:49:51.920><c> I</c><00:49:52.199><c> could</c><00:49:52.340><c> but</c><00:49:52.599><c> tell</c><00:49:52.940><c> them</c>

00:49:54.039 --> 00:49:56.780
what<00:49:54.480><c> happened</c><00:49:54.780><c> to</c><00:49:54.920><c> me</c><00:49:54.980><c> on</c><00:49:55.159><c> the</c><00:49:55.300><c> road</c><00:49:55.420><c> to</c><00:49:55.599><c> Damascus,</c>

00:49:57.239 --> 00:50:00.139
they<00:49:57.679><c> will</c><00:49:57.960><c> have</c><00:49:58.199><c> to</c><00:49:58.400><c> listen</c><00:49:58.539><c> to</c><00:49:58.739><c> my</c><00:49:58.920><c> argument.</c>

00:50:03.380 --> 00:50:05.840
But<00:50:03.820><c> it</c><00:50:04.260><c> didn't</c><00:50:04.420><c> work</c><00:50:04.659><c> like</c><00:50:04.860><c> that,</c><00:50:05.000><c> did</c><00:50:05.139><c> it?</c>

00:50:06.900 --> 00:50:13.000
Only<00:50:07.300><c> brutal</c><00:50:07.699><c> and</c><00:50:10.559><c> bitter</c><00:50:11.239><c> spirit</c><00:50:11.900><c> awaited</c><00:50:12.360><c> him</c><00:50:12.539><c> in</c><00:50:12.679><c> that</c><00:50:12.840><c> city.</c>

00:50:13.179 --> 00:50:15.300
There<00:50:13.179><c> was</c><00:50:13.539><c> no</c><00:50:13.940><c> reason</c><00:50:14.260><c> there.</c>

00:50:16.239 --> 00:50:17.940
And<00:50:16.420><c> so</c><00:50:16.539><c> he</c><00:50:16.619><c> went</c><00:50:16.820><c> from</c><00:50:17.039><c> one</c><00:50:17.300><c> place</c><00:50:17.519><c> to</c><00:50:17.719><c> another</c>

00:50:20.400 --> 00:50:23.460
Even<00:50:20.519><c> when</c><00:50:20.679><c> he</c><00:50:20.780><c> was</c><00:50:20.960><c> in</c><00:50:21.099><c> the</c><00:50:21.800><c> security</c><00:50:22.380><c> of</c><00:50:22.559><c> the</c><00:50:22.719><c> Roman</c><00:50:23.019><c> castle,</c>

00:50:23.619 --> 00:50:27.159
the<00:50:23.719><c> Jews</c><00:50:23.940><c> still</c><00:50:24.679><c> were</c><00:50:25.199><c> determined</c><00:50:25.699><c> to</c><00:50:25.820><c> get</c><00:50:26.000><c> him,</c><00:50:26.280><c> 40</c><00:50:26.460><c> men,</c>

00:50:27.659 --> 00:50:29.480
till<00:50:27.760><c> we</c><00:50:27.900><c> won't</c><00:50:28.059><c> eat</c><00:50:28.280><c> or</c><00:50:28.420><c> drink,</c><00:50:28.639><c> until</c><00:50:28.840><c> we</c><00:50:29.039><c> destroy</c><00:50:29.380><c> him.</c>

00:50:29.480 --> 00:50:31.079
How<00:50:29.619><c> would</c><00:50:29.719><c> you</c><00:50:29.800><c> like</c><00:50:29.920><c> to</c><00:50:30.039><c> have</c><00:50:30.159><c> that?</c>

00:50:32.860 --> 00:50:35.880
And<00:50:33.460><c> they</c><00:50:33.760><c> sought</c><00:50:33.920><c> means</c><00:50:34.420><c> by</c><00:50:34.699><c> which</c><00:50:34.860><c> they'd</c><00:50:35.139><c> be</c><00:50:35.199><c> able</c><00:50:35.500><c> eventually</c>

00:51:41.780 --> 00:51:45.159
I<00:51:41.960><c> wonder</c><00:51:42.239><c> how</c><00:51:42.539><c> many</c><00:51:42.800><c> other</c><00:51:43.139><c> times</c><00:51:43.420><c> that</c><00:51:43.599><c> had</c><00:51:43.820><c> ever</c><00:51:44.079><c> happened.</c>

He<00:51:55.519><c> had</c><00:51:55.719><c> nursed</c><00:51:56.019><c> this</c><00:51:56.300><c> desire</c><00:51:56.639><c> for</c><00:51:57.039><c> years.</c>

00:51:59.400 --> 00:52:02.960

00:52:04.500 --> 00:52:07.380
He<00:52:04.760><c> had</c><00:52:04.980><c> come</c><00:52:05.159><c> with</c><00:52:05.320><c> his</c><00:52:05.599><c> heart</c><00:52:05.940><c> towards</c><00:52:06.780><c> that</c><00:52:07.099><c> people</c>

00:52:11.940 --> 00:52:15.739
And<00:52:12.340><c> now</c><00:52:12.559><c> it</c><00:52:12.619><c> was</c><00:52:12.820><c> all</c><00:52:13.059><c> in</c><00:52:13.239><c> a</c><00:52:13.380><c> heap,</c><00:52:13.739><c> and</c><00:52:13.840><c> he</c><00:52:14.059><c> in</c><00:52:14.280><c> a</c><00:52:14.440><c> heap</c><00:52:14.599><c> as</c><00:52:14.840><c> well.</c>

00:52:28.179 --> 00:52:33.719
He's<00:52:28.559><c> no</c><00:52:28.760><c> longer</c><00:52:29.239><c> soul,</c><00:52:30.760><c> soul,</c><00:52:32.199><c> but</c><00:52:32.320><c> he's</c><00:52:32.679><c> Paul,</c><00:52:33.119><c> isn't</c><00:52:33.280><c> he?</c>

00:52:33.820 --> 00:52:35.000
The<00:52:33.960><c> little</c><00:52:34.260><c> one.</c>

00:52:35.420 --> 00:52:41.340
Whereas<00:52:35.760><c> thou</c><00:52:36.139><c> hast</c><00:52:37.739><c> testified</c><00:52:39.019><c> of</c><00:52:39.480><c> me</c><00:52:39.760><c> in</c><00:52:40.119><c> Jerusalem,</c>

00:52:46.300 --> 00:52:48.380
That's<00:52:46.940><c> instructive,</c><00:52:47.539><c> isn't</c><00:52:47.559><c> it?</c>

00:52:48.539 --> 00:52:53.980
Would<00:52:48.719><c> you</c><00:52:48.880><c> have</c><00:52:49.059><c> said</c><00:52:49.280><c> that</c><00:52:49.440><c> he</c><00:52:49.599><c> did</c><00:52:49.900><c> in</c><00:52:50.019><c> fact</c><00:52:50.320><c> testify</c><00:52:51.079><c> of</c><00:52:51.440><c> him</c><00:52:52.260><c> in</c><00:52:53.099><c> Jerusalem?</c>

00:52:54.179 --> 00:52:56.280
Wasn't<00:52:54.519><c> it</c><00:52:54.739><c> an</c><00:52:54.980><c> abject</c><00:52:55.400><c> failure?</c>

00:52:57.840 --> 00:53:01.059
But<00:52:58.139><c> the</c><00:52:58.300><c> Lord</c><00:52:58.440><c> never</c><00:52:58.860><c> put</c><00:52:59.500><c> failure</c><00:52:59.760><c> to</c><00:52:59.980><c> it,</c><00:53:00.139><c> did</c><00:53:00.280><c> He?</c>

00:53:01.599 --> 00:53:07.219

00:53:14.019 --> 00:53:17.239
Even<00:53:14.519><c> though</c><00:53:14.780><c> you</c><00:53:14.960><c> and</c><00:53:15.059><c> I</c><00:53:15.159><c> would</c><00:53:15.440><c> say</c><00:53:15.739><c> a</c><00:53:16.099><c> monumental</c><00:53:16.559><c> failure,</c>

So<00:53:27.380><c> He</c><00:53:27.559><c> knew</c><00:53:27.780><c> therefore</c><00:53:28.619><c> that</c><00:53:29.400><c> never</c><00:53:29.739><c> mind</c><00:53:30.000><c> what</c><00:53:30.380><c> come,</c>

00:53:32.739 --> 00:53:36.480
And<00:53:33.260><c> He</c><00:53:33.420><c> knew</c><00:53:33.900><c> by</c><00:53:34.900><c> the</c><00:53:35.119><c> sense</c><00:53:35.300><c> of</c><00:53:35.480><c> the</c><00:53:35.619><c> Lord's</c><00:53:35.980><c> direction</c>

00:53:41.559 --> 00:53:45.619
Now<00:53:41.559><c> verse</c><00:53:41.719><c> 11</c><00:53:41.980><c> therefore,</c><00:53:42.900><c> chapter</c><00:53:43.079><c> 23,</c><00:53:43.760><c> is</c><00:53:43.940><c> terribly</c><00:53:44.320><c> important.</c>

00:53:46.539 --> 00:53:48.380

01:00:10.420 --> 01:00:12.059
Why<01:00:10.579><c> was</c><01:00:10.719><c> it</c><01:00:10.840><c> going</c><01:00:10.920><c> to</c><01:00:11.039><c> make</c><01:00:11.139><c> any</c><01:00:11.360><c> difference</c><01:00:11.579><c> if</c><01:00:11.739><c> he</c><01:00:11.920><c> walked</c>

01:00:17.099 --> 01:00:21.079
Festus<01:00:17.559><c> was</c><01:00:17.739><c> just</c><01:00:18.920><c> a</c><01:00:19.199><c> man</c><01:00:19.440><c> without</c><01:00:19.860><c> principle</c><01:00:20.360><c> and</c><01:00:20.679><c> without</c>

01:00:27.500 --> 01:00:29.820
Well,<01:00:27.639><c> Paul</c><01:00:27.780><c> had</c><01:00:27.940><c> had</c><01:00:28.099><c> enough</c><01:00:28.280><c> of</c><01:00:28.460><c> that</c><01:00:28.579><c> and</c><01:00:28.699><c> he</c><01:00:28.739><c> could</c><01:00:28.960><c> see</c><01:00:29.079><c> there</c><01:00:29.239><c> was</c><01:00:29.400><c> no</c><01:00:29.639><c> end.</c>

01:00:30.000 --> 01:00:33.900
And<01:00:30.059><c> so,</c><01:00:30.360><c> verse</c><01:00:30.480><c> 10,</c><01:00:31.300><c> he</c><01:00:31.599><c> stated</c><01:00:32.039><c> the</c><01:00:32.320><c> case</c><01:00:33.079><c> which</c><01:00:33.519><c> would</c><01:00:33.780><c> lead</c>

him<01:00:34.079><c> to</c><01:00:34.300><c> Rome.</c>

01:00:34.699 --> 01:00:39.260
I<01:00:34.860><c> stand</c><01:00:35.380><c> at</c><01:00:35.699><c> Caesar's</c><01:00:36.280><c> judgment</c><01:00:36.619><c> seat</c><01:00:37.320><c> where</c><01:00:37.960><c> I</c><01:00:38.260><c> ought</c><01:00:38.360><c> to</c><01:00:38.559><c> be</c><01:00:38.739><c> judged.</c>

01:00:39.260 --> 01:00:43.880
To<01:00:40.300><c> the</c><01:00:40.539><c> Jews</c><01:00:40.679><c> I</c><01:00:40.960><c> have</c><01:00:41.219><c> done</c><01:00:41.460><c> no</c><01:00:41.780><c> wrong,</c><01:00:42.840><c> as</c><01:00:42.980><c> thou</c><01:00:43.119><c> very</c><01:00:43.519><c> well</c>

knowest,<01:00:44.280><c> and</c><01:00:44.380><c> I'm</c><01:00:44.519><c> sure</c><01:00:44.719><c> he</c><01:00:44.880><c> must</c><01:00:45.159><c> have.</c>

01:00:46.400 --> 01:00:47.980
So<01:00:46.659><c> that</c><01:00:46.739><c> was</c><01:00:46.980><c> a</c><01:00:47.099><c> clear</c><01:00:47.239><c> statement,</c><01:00:47.780><c> wasn't</c><01:00:47.860><c> it?</c>

01:00:48.059 --> 01:00:53.539
He'd<01:00:48.599><c> come</c><01:00:48.739><c> to</c><01:00:48.980><c> recognize</c><01:00:49.500><c> that</c><01:00:49.940><c> despite</c><01:00:50.400><c> his</c><01:00:50.780><c> intense</c><01:00:51.159><c> feelings,</c><01:00:51.739><c> Romans</c><01:00:52.059><c> 9</c><01:00:52.380><c> and</c><01:00:52.539><c> 10,</c>

01:00:57.380 --> 01:01:02.219
And<01:00:57.619><c> so</c><01:00:58.119><c> I</c><01:00:58.820><c> stand</c><01:00:59.119><c> at</c><01:00:59.780><c> Caesar's</c><01:01:00.900><c> judgment</c><01:01:01.300><c> seat.</c>

01:01:05.420 --> 01:01:07.000
There<01:01:05.679><c> was</c><01:01:05.940><c> a</c><01:01:06.159><c> final</c><01:01:06.500><c> conviction.</c>

01:01:07.000 --> 01:01:09.360

01:01:09.360 --> 01:01:10.400
I<01:01:09.579><c> said,</c>

01:01:10.539 --> 01:01:14.320
he<01:01:10.559><c> knew</c><01:01:11.199><c> that</c><01:01:11.900><c> Roman</c><01:01:12.239><c> armies</c><01:01:12.599><c> would</c><01:01:12.960><c> soon</c><01:01:13.400><c> be</c><01:01:13.719><c> storming</c><01:01:14.159><c> down</c>

The<01:01:21.500><c> hills</c><01:01:21.780><c> of</c><01:01:21.980><c> the</c><01:01:22.119><c> city</c><01:01:22.300><c> would</c><01:01:22.679><c> be</c><01:01:22.960><c> strung</c><01:01:23.179><c> with</c><01:01:23.440><c> crucifixes.</c>

01:01:24.119 --> 01:01:25.860
He<01:01:24.159><c> knew</c><01:01:24.380><c> all</c><01:01:24.599><c> that</c><01:01:24.780><c> was</c><01:01:24.940><c> coming.</c>

01:01:26.880 --> 01:01:29.360
Perhaps<01:01:27.179><c> that's</c><01:01:27.440><c> why</c><01:01:27.599><c> God</c><01:01:27.820><c> left</c><01:01:28.059><c> him</c><01:01:28.199><c> for</c><01:01:28.360><c> just</c><01:01:28.599><c> two</c><01:01:28.880><c> years</c><01:01:29.219><c> to</c>

01:01:34.000 --> 01:01:37.780
He<01:01:34.400><c> probably</c><01:01:34.719><c> thought</c><01:01:34.940><c> that</c><01:01:35.099><c> was</c><01:01:35.260><c> going</c><01:01:35.420><c> to</c><01:01:35.539><c> be</c><01:01:35.679><c> the</c><01:01:35.940><c> final</c><01:01:37.179><c> scene</c><01:01:37.599><c> of</c>

his<01:01:37.960><c> work.</c>

01:01:38.480 --> 01:01:40.699
He'd<01:01:38.840><c> worked</c><01:01:39.000><c> out</c><01:01:39.199><c> on</c><01:01:39.340><c> all</c><01:01:39.460><c> of</c><01:01:39.579><c> those,</c><01:01:39.840><c> and</c><01:01:40.000><c> he</c><01:01:40.079><c> was</c><01:01:40.260><c> happy</c><01:01:40.519><c> to</c>

01:01:40.699 --> 01:01:40.840
do<01:01:40.760><c> it.</c>

01:01:40.840 --> 01:01:41.900
He<01:01:40.940><c> loved</c><01:01:41.199><c> doing</c><01:01:41.500><c> it.</c>

01:01:42.320 --> 01:01:43.860
That<01:01:42.400><c> was</c><01:01:42.659><c> crown</c><01:01:42.960><c> and</c><01:01:43.239><c> joy,</c><01:01:43.380><c> he</c><01:01:43.619><c> says.</c>

01:01:44.260 --> 01:01:46.340

And<01:11:22.939><c> it</c><01:11:23.000><c> was</c><01:11:23.180><c> a</c><01:11:23.220><c> terrifying</c><01:11:23.800><c> experience,</c><01:11:24.479><c> wasn't</c><01:11:24.600><c> it?</c>

01:11:24.739 --> 01:11:27.359
Fortunately,<01:11:25.460><c> they</c><01:11:25.659><c> got</c><01:11:25.859><c> off</c><01:11:26.319><c> the</c><01:11:26.560><c> bank.</c>

01:11:27.920 --> 01:11:29.340
But<01:11:28.039><c> Paul</c><01:11:28.140><c> says,</c><01:11:28.420><c> we</c><01:11:28.420><c> won't</c><01:11:28.500><c> get</c><01:11:28.659><c> off</c><01:11:28.800><c> this</c><01:11:29.079><c> one.</c>

01:11:29.659 --> 01:11:31.279
The<01:11:29.840><c> ship</c><01:11:30.000><c> will</c><01:11:30.180><c> be</c><01:11:30.340><c> lost.</c>

01:11:31.560 --> 01:11:33.539
But<01:11:31.720><c> not</c><01:11:31.960><c> one</c><01:11:32.180><c> hair</c><01:11:32.340><c> of</c><01:11:32.479><c> your</c><01:11:32.720><c> head</c><01:11:32.840><c> will</c><01:11:33.039><c> be</c><01:11:33.220><c> lost.</c>

01:11:33.979 --> 01:11:36.300
And<01:11:34.140><c> they</c><01:11:34.439><c> believed</c><01:11:34.960><c> him.</c>

01:11:37.340 --> 01:11:39.720
They<01:11:37.779><c> stayed</c><01:11:38.000><c> on</c><01:11:38.180><c> the</c><01:11:38.340><c> boat</c><01:11:38.560><c> and</c><01:11:38.819><c> they</c><01:11:39.199><c> believed</c><01:11:39.539><c> him</c>

01:11:39.720 --> 01:11:42.619
and<01:11:40.020><c> 276</c><01:11:41.260><c> souls</c><01:11:41.560><c> by</c><01:11:41.819><c> one</c><01:11:42.079><c> means</c><01:11:42.260><c> or</c><01:11:42.380><c> another</c>

01:11:45.739 --> 01:11:50.140
As<01:11:46.779><c> it</c><01:11:46.979><c> says,</c><01:11:49.460><c> some</c><01:11:49.520><c> on</c><01:11:49.760><c> boards</c>

01:11:50.140 --> 01:11:51.939

So<01:12:00.140><c> his,</c><01:12:00.699><c> could</c><01:12:01.079><c> we</c><01:12:01.279><c> say,</c><01:12:01.699><c> his</c><01:12:01.920><c> gospel</c>

The<01:13:06.079><c> captain</c><01:13:06.399><c> was</c><01:13:07.260><c> exhausted</c>

01:13:10.560 --> 01:13:12.659
It's<01:13:10.640><c> like</c><01:13:10.739><c> when</c><01:13:10.899><c> you're</c><01:13:11.020><c> in</c><01:13:11.100><c> an</c><01:13:11.180><c> airplane</c><01:13:11.439><c> today,</c><01:13:11.880><c> isn't</c><01:13:11.979><c> it,</c>

01:13:12.880 --> 01:13:14.300

01:13:14.300 --> 01:13:15.739

01:13:17.460 --> 01:13:18.199
and<01:13:17.600><c> you</c><01:13:17.640><c> think,</c><01:13:17.979><c> you</c><01:13:18.100><c> know,</c>

01:13:18.199 --> 01:13:20.439
I<01:13:18.279><c> hope</c><01:13:18.399><c> that</c><01:13:18.600><c> chap</c><01:13:18.720><c> up</c><01:13:18.899><c> the</c><01:13:19.079><c> front</c><01:13:19.140><c> knows</c><01:13:19.340><c> what</c><01:13:19.460><c> he's</c><01:13:19.720><c> doing.</c>

01:13:20.920 --> 01:13:22.180
It's<01:13:21.140><c> a</c><01:13:21.260><c> terrible</c><01:13:21.520><c> feeling,</c><01:13:21.899><c> isn't</c><01:13:22.039><c> it,</c>

01:13:22.180 --> 01:13:23.460
when<01:13:22.340><c> she's</c><01:13:22.600><c> really</c><01:13:22.960><c> rocking</c><01:13:23.199><c> around,</c>

01:13:23.460 --> 01:13:24.239
you<01:13:23.560><c> look</c><01:13:23.699><c> out</c><01:13:23.880><c> the</c><01:13:24.000><c> window</c>

01:13:24.239 --> 01:13:25.699

01:13:25.699 --> 01:13:26.760
and<01:13:25.800><c> you</c><01:13:25.880><c> think,</c><01:13:26.100><c> this</c><01:13:26.199><c> is</c><01:13:26.319><c> impossible.</c>

01:13:27.100 --> 01:13:29.920
How<01:13:27.279><c> can</c><01:13:27.380><c> those</c><01:13:27.699><c> huge</c><01:13:28.119><c> wings</c><01:13:28.420><c> go</c><01:13:28.619><c> like</c><01:13:28.859><c> this?</c>

01:13:31.439 --> 01:13:33.039
It's<01:13:31.840><c> a</c><01:13:31.880><c> very</c><01:13:32.220><c> awesome</c><01:13:32.619><c> feeling</c>

01:13:33.039 --> 01:13:35.899
when<01:13:33.199><c> you're</c><01:13:33.840><c> just</c><01:13:33.899><c> such</c><01:13:34.239><c> a</c><01:13:34.460><c> small</c><01:13:34.899><c> thing</c>

01:13:36.039 --> 01:13:38.199

01:13:38.520 --> 01:13:39.699
Well,<01:13:38.680><c> it's</c><01:13:38.779><c> far</c><01:13:38.960><c> more</c><01:13:39.199><c> in</c><01:13:39.319><c> the</c><01:13:39.479><c> days</c>

The<01:13:47.600><c> captain</c><01:13:47.819><c> was</c><01:13:48.140><c> exhausted</c>

01:17:32.000 --> 01:17:34.800
But<01:17:32.439><c> he</c><01:17:32.560><c> looked</c><01:17:32.699><c> after</c><01:17:33.039><c> all</c><01:17:33.319><c> of</c><01:17:33.439><c> them.</c>

01:17:36.500 --> 01:17:40.039
And<01:17:36.659><c> it</c><01:17:36.779><c> came</c><01:17:36.920><c> to</c><01:17:37.119><c> pass</c><01:17:37.319><c> that</c><01:17:37.680><c> the</c><01:17:37.880><c> father</c><01:17:38.140><c> of</c><01:17:38.340><c> Publius</c><01:17:38.699><c> lay</c><01:17:38.939><c> sick.</c>

01:17:40.579 --> 01:17:44.960
And<01:17:41.020><c> a</c><01:17:41.180><c> bloody</c><01:17:42.079><c> flux</c><01:17:42.460><c> was</c><01:17:42.680><c> upon</c><01:17:42.979><c> him,</c><01:17:43.260><c> dysentery,</c>

01:17:44.979 --> 01:17:47.199

01:17:48.239 --> 01:17:51.399
So<01:17:48.380><c> when</c><01:17:48.600><c> this</c><01:17:49.119><c> was</c><01:17:49.319><c> done,</c><01:17:49.560><c> others</c><01:17:49.840><c> also,</c><01:17:50.500><c> the</c><01:17:50.800><c> whole</c><01:17:51.119><c> island</c>

01:17:53.579 --> 01:17:55.760
It's<01:17:53.859><c> like</c><01:17:54.060><c> Galilee</c><01:17:54.380><c> all</c><01:17:54.619><c> over</c><01:17:54.880><c> again,</c><01:17:55.199><c> isn't</c><01:17:55.359><c> it?</c>

01:17:56.119 --> 01:17:59.500
It's<01:17:56.319><c> not</c><01:17:56.479><c> Galilee,</c><01:17:57.000><c> it's</c><01:17:57.140><c> in</c><01:17:58.439><c> the</c><01:17:58.439><c> island</c><01:17:58.560><c> of</c><01:17:58.819><c> the</c><01:17:58.939><c> Gentiles,</c>

The<01:18:02.340><c> apostle</c><01:18:02.579><c> would</c><01:18:02.779><c> have</c><01:18:02.880><c> seen</c><01:18:02.979><c> it</c><01:18:03.260><c> exactly</c><01:18:03.739><c> like</c><01:18:04.060><c> that.</c>

01:18:04.659 --> 01:18:08.399
In<01:18:05.399><c> the</c><01:18:05.659><c> Lord's</c><01:18:06.319><c> same</c><01:18:06.760><c> ways</c><01:18:07.199><c> he's</c><01:18:07.460><c> walking</c><01:18:07.800><c> in</c><01:18:08.000><c> his</c><01:18:08.180><c> steps,</c>

01:18:08.600 --> 01:18:09.060
isn't<01:18:08.659><c> he?</c>

01:18:09.300 --> 01:18:11.460
But<01:18:09.399><c> he's</c><01:18:09.560><c> going</c><01:18:09.720><c> to</c><01:18:09.960><c> Rome,</c><01:18:10.159><c> not</c><01:18:10.319><c> to</c><01:18:10.600><c> Jerusalem</c><01:18:10.920><c> now.</c>

01:18:11.840 --> 01:18:13.880
The<01:18:12.039><c> course</c><01:18:12.220><c> has</c><01:18:12.439><c> been</c><01:18:12.640><c> changed.</c>

01:18:16.220 --> 01:18:19.520
So<01:18:16.340><c> when</c><01:18:16.500><c> this</c><01:18:16.720><c> was</c><01:18:16.960><c> done,</c><01:18:17.619><c> all</c><01:18:17.699><c> these</c><01:18:17.899><c> other</c><01:18:18.079><c> people</c><01:18:18.359><c> came.</c>

01:18:19.760 --> 01:18:22.100
And<01:18:19.840><c> they</c><01:18:20.060><c> honored</c><01:18:20.239><c> us,</c><01:18:20.600><c> verse</c><01:18:20.800><c> 10,</c><01:18:21.260><c> with</c><01:18:21.340><c> many</c><01:18:21.739><c> honors.</c>

01:18:22.220 --> 01:18:25.279
And<01:18:22.260><c> when</c><01:18:22.479><c> we</c><01:18:22.680><c> departed,</c><01:18:23.720><c> they</c><01:18:23.819><c> laded</c><01:18:24.140><c> us</c><01:18:24.380><c> with</c><01:18:24.680><c> such</c><01:18:24.899><c> things</c>

01:18:25.279 --> 01:18:26.119
as<01:18:25.420><c> were</c><01:18:25.640><c> necessary</c>

01:18:26.119 --> 01:18:28.239
because<01:18:26.380><c> they</c><01:18:26.659><c> had</c><01:18:27.140><c> emptied</c><01:18:27.500><c> the</c><01:18:27.659><c> ship,</c><01:18:27.859><c> hadn't</c><01:18:28.079><c> they?</c>

01:18:28.239 --> 01:18:30.579
There<01:18:28.340><c> was</c><01:18:28.539><c> no</c><01:18:28.760><c> food</c><01:18:28.939><c> left</c><01:18:29.140><c> from</c><01:18:29.340><c> that</c><01:18:29.600><c> source.</c>

01:18:30.979 --> 01:18:33.500
And<01:18:31.140><c> so</c><01:18:31.279><c> verse</c><01:18:31.439><c> 11,</c><01:18:31.699><c> they</c><01:18:31.859><c> found</c><01:18:32.039><c> another</c><01:18:32.520><c> ship.</c>

01:18:34.260 --> 01:18:37.399
And<01:18:34.699><c> after</c><01:18:35.039><c> three</c><01:18:35.439><c> months,</c><01:18:36.859><c> we</c><01:18:36.960><c> departed.</c>

01:18:37.600 --> 01:18:42.500
So<01:18:37.659><c> there</c><01:18:37.680><c> was</c><01:18:38.500><c> another</c><01:18:38.939><c> three</c><01:18:39.300><c> months</c><01:18:39.659><c> found</c><01:18:40.140><c> in</c><01:18:40.939><c> Melita,</c><01:18:41.619><c> in</c><01:18:41.779><c> Malta.</c>

01:18:42.899 --> 01:18:44.279
Three<01:18:43.340><c> months.</c>

01:18:44.819 --> 01:18:47.199
He's<01:18:45.199><c> bursting,</c><01:18:45.739><c> no</c><01:18:45.819><c> doubt,</c><01:18:46.079><c> to</c><01:18:46.199><c> get</c><01:18:46.340><c> to</c><01:18:46.579><c> Rome</c><01:18:46.720><c> now.</c>

01:18:47.619 --> 01:18:49.979
But<01:18:47.800><c> God</c><01:18:48.079><c> didn't</c><01:18:48.699><c> hasten</c><01:18:48.979><c> it,</c><01:18:49.140><c> did</c><01:18:49.239><c> He?</c>

01:18:50.039 --> 01:18:51.819
You<01:18:50.239><c> know,</c><01:18:50.340><c> all</c><01:18:50.460><c> through</c><01:18:50.560><c> this</c><01:18:50.800><c> record</c><01:18:51.079><c> in</c><01:18:51.300><c> the</c><01:18:51.399><c> latter</c><01:18:51.560><c> part</c>

01:18:51.819 --> 01:18:52.300
of<01:18:52.039><c> Acts,</c>

01:18:52.520 --> 01:18:56.479
you<01:18:52.640><c> want</c><01:18:52.720><c> to</c><01:18:52.819><c> watch</c><01:18:52.939><c> it</c><01:18:53.100><c> very</c><01:18:53.420><c> carefully</c><01:18:53.680><c> because</c><01:18:53.960><c> it's</c><01:18:55.760><c> staged</c><01:18:56.100><c> out,</c>

01:18:56.680 --> 01:18:57.960
it's<01:18:57.380><c> expanded.</c>

01:18:58.300 --> 01:19:01.060
And<01:18:58.460><c> little</c><01:18:58.659><c> details</c><01:18:59.020><c> are</c><01:18:59.239><c> given</c><01:18:59.380><c> that</c><01:18:59.520><c> you</c><01:18:59.619><c> think,</c><01:18:59.840><c> well,</c><01:19:00.100><c> why</c><01:19:00.319><c> tell</c><01:19:00.500><c> us</c><01:19:00.699><c> that?</c>

01:19:01.060 --> 01:19:04.279
It<01:19:01.760><c> took</c><01:19:01.960><c> three</c><01:19:02.279><c> days</c><01:19:02.460><c> to</c><01:19:02.619><c> get</c><01:19:02.739><c> here</c><01:19:02.939><c> and</c><01:19:03.220><c> seven</c><01:19:03.460><c> days</c><01:19:03.680><c> to</c><01:19:03.880><c> get</c><01:19:04.039><c> there.</c>

01:19:04.420 --> 01:19:06.100
And<01:19:04.500><c> we</c><01:19:04.600><c> landed</c><01:19:04.840><c> at</c><01:19:05.140><c> this</c><01:19:05.159><c> island</c><01:19:05.239><c> and</c><01:19:05.359><c> went</c><01:19:05.479><c> to</c><01:19:05.680><c> Chios,</c><01:19:05.979><c> went</c>

01:19:06.100 --> 01:19:06.539

01:19:06.899 --> 01:19:08.920
all<01:19:07.060><c> these</c><01:19:07.199><c> little</c><01:19:07.420><c> islands</c><01:19:07.779><c> and</c><01:19:08.020><c> the</c><01:19:08.159><c> Greek</c><01:19:08.319><c> islands</c><01:19:08.579><c> as</c><01:19:08.720><c> we</c>

01:19:08.920 --> 01:19:10.060
call<01:19:09.039><c> them</c><01:19:09.159><c> today.</c>

01:19:10.119 --> 01:19:12.760
You<01:19:10.239><c> think,</c><01:19:10.460><c> well,</c><01:19:10.460><c> what's</c><01:19:10.739><c> the</c><01:19:10.840><c> point</c><01:19:11.000><c> of</c><01:19:11.060><c> telling</c><01:19:11.300><c> us</c><01:19:11.520><c> all</c><01:19:11.739><c> that?</c>

01:19:13.479 --> 01:19:16.680
Because,<01:19:14.100><c> my</c><01:19:14.100><c> dear</c><01:19:14.239><c> brethren</c><01:19:14.460><c> and</c><01:19:14.680><c> sisters,</c><01:19:15.720><c> as</c><01:19:15.899><c> perhaps</c><01:19:16.159><c> we</c>

01:19:16.680 --> 01:19:17.539
see<01:19:16.880><c> it</c><01:19:17.039><c> more</c><01:19:17.260><c> clearly,</c>

01:19:17.859 --> 01:19:20.460
there<01:19:18.060><c> was</c><01:19:18.319><c> a</c><01:19:18.619><c> pageantry</c><01:19:19.100><c> about</c><01:19:19.460><c> this.</c>

01:19:21.800 --> 01:19:24.619
This<01:19:22.239><c> was</c><01:19:22.500><c> the</c><01:19:22.779><c> steps</c><01:19:23.000><c> of</c><01:19:23.180><c> a</c><01:19:23.399><c> great</c><01:19:23.619><c> journey.</c>

01:19:25.800 --> 01:19:28.680
Like<01:19:26.100><c> the</c><01:19:26.319><c> Lord's</c><01:19:26.779><c> life</c><01:19:27.119><c> took</c><01:19:27.439><c> Him</c><01:19:27.659><c> down</c><01:19:27.859><c> from</c><01:19:28.060><c> the</c><01:19:28.260><c> north</c><01:19:28.439><c> of</c>

01:19:28.680 --> 01:19:30.819
Israel<01:19:29.039><c> and</c><01:19:29.500><c> down</c><01:19:29.680><c> to</c><01:19:29.920><c> Jerusalem.</c>

01:19:31.800 --> 01:19:35.840
So,<01:19:32.479><c> in</c><01:19:32.579><c> a</c><01:19:32.819><c> very</c><01:19:33.159><c> wonderful</c><01:19:33.539><c> way,</c><01:19:34.739><c> He,</c><01:19:34.939><c> having</c><01:19:35.199><c> done</c><01:19:35.439><c> that,</c><01:19:35.680><c> is</c>

01:19:35.840 --> 01:19:37.979
now<01:19:36.220><c> redirected</c><01:19:36.819><c> to</c><01:19:37.079><c> Rome.</c>

01:19:38.359 --> 01:19:40.859
And<01:19:38.680><c> so</c><01:19:38.859><c> the</c><01:19:39.079><c> record</c><01:19:39.340><c> expands</c><01:19:39.979><c> and</c><01:19:40.180><c> draws</c><01:19:40.539><c> out.</c>

01:19:40.920 --> 01:19:42.640
Look<01:19:41.119><c> at</c><01:19:41.239><c> all</c><01:19:41.460><c> the</c><01:19:41.939><c> details</c><01:19:42.260><c> that</c><01:19:42.500><c> are</c><01:19:42.500><c> given.</c>

01:19:42.720 --> 01:19:44.979
Let's<01:19:42.779><c> come</c><01:19:42.939><c> back</c><01:19:43.079><c> to</c><01:19:43.239><c> chapter</c><01:19:43.779><c> 20</c><01:19:44.300><c> and</c><01:19:44.420><c> 21.</c>

01:19:45.399 --> 01:19:47.159
Have<01:19:45.479><c> you</c><01:19:45.600><c> noticed</c><01:19:45.880><c> this?</c>

01:19:50.819 --> 01:19:53.020
Look<01:19:51.000><c> at</c><01:19:51.039><c> verse</c><01:19:51.319><c> 13</c><01:19:51.819><c> of</c><01:19:52.000><c> chapter</c><01:19:52.260><c> 20.</c>

01:19:53.399 --> 01:19:56.920
Well,<01:19:54.279><c> we</c><01:19:54.279><c> went</c><01:19:54.500><c> before</c><01:19:54.819><c> to</c><01:19:55.100><c> ship</c><01:19:55.319><c> and</c><01:19:55.560><c> sailed</c><01:19:55.779><c> on</c><01:19:55.979><c> to</c><01:19:56.180><c> Asos,</c>

01:19:57.319 --> 01:19:59.479

01:19:59.659 --> 01:20:02.000
For<01:19:59.899><c> so</c><01:20:00.039><c> had</c><01:20:00.140><c> he</c><01:20:00.319><c> appointed,</c><01:20:00.760><c> minding</c><01:20:01.079><c> himself</c><01:20:01.380><c> to</c><01:20:01.520><c> go</c><01:20:01.739><c> afoot.</c>

01:20:02.079 --> 01:20:03.920

01:20:03.979 --> 01:20:07.640

The<01:20:27.140><c> next</c><01:20:27.399><c> day</c><01:20:27.539><c> we</c><01:20:27.699><c> arrived</c><01:20:28.020><c> at</c><01:20:28.359><c> Samos</c><01:20:28.840><c> and</c><01:20:29.779><c> carried</c><01:20:30.039><c> at</c><01:20:30.779><c> Trogolim.</c>

And<01:20:39.359><c> obviously</c><01:20:39.720><c> we're</c><01:20:40.020><c> intended</c><01:20:40.319><c> to</c><01:20:41.000><c> see</c><01:20:41.399><c> that</c><01:20:41.739><c> Luke</c><01:20:42.100><c> was</c><01:20:43.380><c> entranced</c>

01:20:55.939 --> 01:20:58.119
So<01:20:56.260><c> we</c><01:20:56.500><c> went</c><01:20:56.800><c> toward</c><01:20:57.260><c> Rome.</c>

01:20:58.399 --> 01:21:01.619
And<01:20:58.739><c> throughout</c><01:20:59.039><c> all</c><01:20:59.380><c> of</c><01:20:59.500><c> it,</c><01:20:59.659><c> see,</c><01:20:59.859><c> God's</c><01:21:00.239><c> hand</c><01:21:00.479><c> was</c><01:21:00.720><c> coming</c><01:21:00.960><c> out.</c>

01:21:02.060 --> 01:21:05.359
There<01:21:02.199><c> were</c><01:21:02.439><c> circumstances</c><01:21:03.020><c> that</c><01:21:03.300><c> seemed</c><01:21:03.460><c> to</c><01:21:03.579><c> be</c><01:21:03.859><c> inexplicable.</c>

01:21:05.899 --> 01:21:07.439
Why<01:21:06.239><c> was</c><01:21:06.380><c> He</c><01:21:06.560><c> two</c><01:21:06.720><c> years</c><01:21:06.920><c> in</c><01:21:07.159><c> Caesarea?</c>

01:21:07.760 --> 01:21:08.699
Why<01:21:08.060><c> be</c><01:21:08.300><c> shipwrecked?</c>

01:21:08.779 --> 01:21:11.779
Surely<01:21:09.079><c> we</c><01:21:09.300><c> would</c><01:21:09.420><c> have</c><01:21:09.479><c> put</c><01:21:09.619><c> Him</c><01:21:09.800><c> on</c><01:21:10.239><c> a</c><01:21:10.420><c> lovely,</c><01:21:10.979><c> luxurious</c><01:21:11.479><c> line</c>

01:21:11.779 --> 01:21:15.180
and<01:21:12.119><c> sent</c><01:21:12.319><c> Him</c><01:21:12.460><c> off</c><01:21:12.640><c> to</c><01:21:12.819><c> Rome</c><01:21:13.000><c> with</c><01:21:13.399><c> every</c><01:21:13.760><c> blessing,</c><01:21:14.340><c> every</c><01:21:14.779><c> comfort.</c>

01:21:15.180 --> 01:21:16.199
Surely<01:21:15.720><c> God</c><01:21:15.939><c> would</c><01:21:16.079><c> do.</c>

01:21:16.199 --> 01:21:18.300
He's<01:21:16.319><c> an</c><01:21:16.380><c> old</c><01:21:16.560><c> man.</c>

01:21:20.399 --> 01:21:22.420
Doing<01:21:20.539><c> someone</c><01:21:20.859><c> else's</c><01:21:21.300><c> service.</c>

01:21:23.600 --> 01:21:25.920
Surely<01:21:23.899><c> He's</c><01:21:24.180><c> to</c><01:21:24.300><c> be</c><01:21:24.439><c> given</c><01:21:24.659><c> comforts.</c>

01:21:25.979 --> 01:21:27.960
And<01:21:26.180><c> that</c><01:21:26.260><c> wasn't</c><01:21:26.460><c> how</c><01:21:26.680><c> it</c><01:21:26.800><c> happened,</c><01:21:27.079><c> was</c><01:21:27.159><c> it?</c>

01:21:28.180 --> 01:21:32.260
By<01:21:28.500><c> shipwreck</c><01:21:29.020><c> and</c><01:21:29.239><c> up</c><01:21:29.439><c> and</c><01:21:29.699><c> down</c><01:21:29.899><c> and</c><01:21:30.279><c> all</c><01:21:30.500><c> kinds</c><01:21:30.979><c> of</c><01:21:31.300><c> misadventures.</c>

01:21:32.600 --> 01:21:35.319
Three<01:21:32.960><c> months</c><01:21:33.300><c> further</c><01:21:33.699><c> delay</c><01:21:34.039><c> in</c><01:21:34.340><c> Miletus.</c>

01:21:35.560 --> 01:21:37.699
That's<01:21:36.000><c> the</c><01:21:36.100><c> way</c><01:21:36.239><c> He's</c><01:21:36.520><c> coming</c><01:21:36.779><c> to</c><01:21:37.020><c> Rome.</c>

01:21:37.979 --> 01:21:40.539
So<01:21:37.979><c> we</c><01:21:39.039><c> came</c><01:21:39.340><c> to</c><01:21:39.579><c> Rome.</c>

01:21:43.140 --> 01:21:44.840
Are<01:21:43.560><c> we</c><01:21:43.739><c> supposed</c><01:21:44.000><c> to</c><01:21:44.199><c> close?</c>

01:21:45.039 --> 01:21:46.319
We<01:21:45.260><c> are.</c>

01:21:46.399 --> 01:21:46.680
All<01:21:46.479><c> right.</c>

01:21:46.960 --> 01:21:48.319
We've<01:21:47.100><c> closed</c><01:21:47.279><c> just</c><01:21:47.520><c> a</c><01:21:47.600><c> little</c><01:21:47.819><c> short</c><01:21:48.039><c> of</c><01:21:48.199><c> Rome.</c>

01:21:48.479 --> 01:21:50.119
We've<01:21:48.560><c> come</c><01:21:48.680><c> out</c><01:21:48.819><c> of</c><01:21:48.960><c> shipwreck</c><01:21:49.300><c> and</c><01:21:49.420><c> we're</c><01:21:49.539><c> in</c><01:21:49.640><c> Miletus,</c>

01:21:50.500 --> 01:21:52.600
and<01:21:50.760><c> we've</c><01:21:51.039><c> boarded</c><01:21:51.300><c> the</c><01:21:51.439><c> ship</c><01:21:51.760><c> for</c><01:21:52.100><c> our</c><01:21:52.159><c> next</c><01:21:52.439><c> stop.</c>

01:21:52.680 --> 01:21:54.039
Thank<01:21:52.939><c> you.</c>
