The Jewish leaders aim to bring Paul to Jerusalem with plans to ambush and kill him, but Festus insists on conducting the trial in Caesarea. During the hearing, the Jews present accusations they cannot substantiate, while Paul defends himself, asserting his innocence of any wrongdoing against Jewish law, the temple, or Caesar. When Festus, seeking to appease the Jews, proposes sending Paul to Jerusalem, Paul appeals to Caesar, exercising his rights as a Roman citizen. Festus sees nothing deserving of death in Paul's actions but is willing to send him to Rome. Later, King Agrippa and his sister Bernice visit Festus. Festus discusses Paul's case, and Agrippa expresses interest in hearing from Paul before he is sent to Caesar.  God's timing and will are often beyond our understanding. Paul faces lengthy and challenging struggles among the Jews. Even in these trials, God is using him, and we must trust that He is doing the same with us. Paul's appeal to Caesar demonstrates that we have the right to defend ourselves and seek fairness and legal protection. The key is to remain steadfast in our faith, confident that God is in control of every situation. Political leaders and individuals in all forms of power may be fickle and unreliable in their support, as seen in the lives of Jesus and Paul. We must continue to share Jesus with everyone, regardless of their position, and direct all glory to the Father. All-knowing Father, help us trust You in every situation. Grant us the faith to be holy and courageous in the name of Jesus. Also, bless us with the wisdom to utilize opportunities and resources for Your glory and for our protection. We pray for safety and health in our mission. However, we accept any circumstances that best fulfill Your will of reaching souls. Please be with our political leaders. Open their hearts to scripture and guide them to use their power to protect the innocent. May we remain innocent in all that we do in the name of Your Son. Thought Questions: -       God was at work providentially to protect Paul's life. Do you believe God is at work today protecting you? How do you show gratitude? -       Paul was willing to die but continued to assert his innocence. How do you know when to assert your innocence and when to remain quiet? Festus tells Agrippa that Paul's central message is his belief that

Rev Sam Bostock considers how God's plan for Paul's life included chains and suffering.  Acts 21 vs 27 - 36; 37 - 22 v 24

Acts 25:12-26:32

Would you speak truth to power if you faced possible execution? Is there any truth that you are so sure of that you would risk your life to tell it? This episode recounts an actual true story of such an event. Listen to find out what happened!

This is a demonstration of how, “If God be for you he is more than the whole world against you”. “Since God is for you, who can be against you”. As God, according to Paul's many testimonies, demonstrated his presence by delivering Paul out of them all; until God's determination that Paul had successfully completed his course and had kept the faith, even so now God is with us; if we trust him.

Join us as we discuss Paul's appearance before Festus and his appeal to the Roman Emperor to hear his case. Do we exhibit tremendous peace and trust in God like Paul in our difficult circumstances?

Lucas da Costa follows Paul's journey to Jerusalem whilst broaching the subjects of suffering and unity.  Acts 21 vs 1 - 26; Isaiah 50 vs 4 - 6.

Life can be full of problems. But what if God is so powerful that He can be at work, even in our problems? Join us this Sunday as we continue our series in Acts and hear in chapters 25 and 26 about Our Problems and God's Plan.Speaker: Pastor Jeff Boettcher

Message from Rob Brooks on May 25, 2025

We live in a world and a culture that can seem impressive, powerful, and "real" - full of people we want to impress. Jesus and his gospel, in contrast, can seem small, irrelevant, or merely "spiritual." Luke wants us to help us see what this world is really like and what really matters. Join us as we look at "The King" from Acts 25:13-27.

Pastor Roger WilliamsResurrection changes everything: new story, new vision, new confidence.

Rev Sam Bostock thinks about what sort of ministry we should seek to have in the church. Acts 20 vs 7 - 38 

Seeing the Risen Christ Compels Transformation … I. Something to Turn From! (Var) II. Someone to Turn To! (Var) III. Something to Do! (Var) Practical Implications o How can you cultivate a clearer seeing of Jesus? o What do you need to turn from, specifically? o What do you need to turn to, biblical and specific?

In Acts 25 tells us that, when Festus was determined to send Paul to Jerusalem, the Apostle had no alternative but to make his appeal to Caesar. After a short period of time Festus conducts another hearing of Paul's matters. Festus was again seeking the favour of the Jews and at this time Paul announces that he would exercise his right as a Roman Citizen to be judged by Caesar. We then hear of Herod Agrippa and his wife Bernice visiting Caesarea and at this time Festus requests that they hear Paul's case as Festus was struggling with the wording of the charge to be made against Paul. Festus explains to Agrippa that in his opinion there was no commuting or a capital crime, but simply matters concerning Jewish law. With great pomp and ceremony Agrippa, Bernice and all the other dignitaries enter the judgment hall. Festus seeks Agrippa's view about the nature of the charge to appear on the letter to be sent to Caesar. Chapter 26 records Paul's defence and his earnest appeal to Agrippa to embrace the Christian cause. Paul tells his audience of his fervour for the Jewish way and his concerted opposition to Christianity. But when he was confronted by the risen Lord Jesus Christ on the road to Damascus everything changed. He tells the audience of his great commission and then knowing king Agrippa to be a man who read the prophets he appeals to the king to adopt the Christian belief. Festus, being embarrassed by the situation, attempts to finish the hearing immediately by declaring Paul to be mad due to his great learning. Paul was not to be silenced so quickly and continues to ask Agrippa whether he believes the prophets. Paul states plainly I know you believe them king Agrippa. At this point king Agrippa and all the dignitaries rise and leave with the king stating Paul's innocence.

Rev Sam Bostock thinks about how Christian influence has altered society and how change can come from unexpected quarters.  Isaiah 44 vs 1 - 11; Acts 19 v 20 - 20 v 6.

Acts

Rev Sam Bostock considers three truths about Jesus' sheep. Isaiah 8 vs 11 - 18; John 10 vs 22 - 42

In Acts 25, Paul remains in chains, not because God has forgotten him, but because Christ is forming him. Through his enemies, through their opposition, persecution, and their schemes to take his life, Paul is sustained, carried along by the presence and promises of Christ. Today, we highlight three specific comforts that Paul quietly clings to, so that as we face trials of many kinds, we would cling to them as well, as we follow the footsteps of the Savior.

Festus assumes the new role of Roman governor and quickly seeks to address Paul's case. While Festus demonstrates a direct approach, his main contribution to the narrative is honoring Paul's appeal to Caesar. Preached by Jared Kress on April 13th, 2025. Series: "Church on Trial, The Book of Acts." Primary Text: Acts 25. Join us in person Sundays at 10:30am at 6325 Poplar Ave, Memphis TN or online at https://www.kirbywoods.org/live. Follow us online! Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kirbywoodsmemphis Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kirbywoodsmemphis YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kirbywoods Podcast: https://kirbywoodspodcast.buzzsprout.com

Paul has spent two years under house arrest by command of Felix, the governor, who has postponed a verdict in his trial. As referenced at the end of our last chapter, Felix has been succeeded by Porcius Festus, but Paul remains in custody. Today, when Festus travels to Jerusalem, the Jews ask for a favor against Paul. Festus, on the other hand, encourages them to come to Caesarea and make their case against him. The Jews don't have a case against Paul, and the charges they bring are false. When asked if he would like to travel to Jerusalem for a trial, Paul instead appeals to Caesar. Our reading ends with Festus presenting Paul to two visiting dignitaries, but we won't hear from Paul until our next episode. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Paul defends himself against the false allegations of the Jews before another Governor & a King. One day we will stand before the King of kings & the Blood of Christ will be our only hope for our defense against the true allegations that we are guilty before God.

Acts 25 by Mission Ebenezer Family Church

Well today is our last episode in the book of Acts, and as this book concludes, we see Paul continue to contend for the faith that was delivered to the saints once for all. He presents his position to kings and noblemen, respectfully arguing that his position is valid and worthy of consideration. We also see that his Jewish audience is willing to listen to him up until a certain point, and that breaking point is sadly consistent. The Jews turn on Paul in outrage as soon as he suggests that this good news is not just for Israelites, but for believing Gentiles as well.Acts 25 – 1:14 . Acts 26 – 6:09 . Acts 27 – 12:24 . Acts 28 – 19:39 . Proverbs 15 – 25:12 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Fr. Mike reminds us of the context of Galatians and reiterates Paul's admonition not to revert to our previous ways of life now that we have been freed from the yoke of slavery.
