"... with liberty and justice for all" - So ends The Pledge of Allegiance to the U.S. flag. On this Independence Day weekend, we face the question of justice from a short a story about a snake coming out of a fire and attaching to Paul's hand. The Maltese islanders in Acts 28:1-6 had a fairly simple view of justice that the gods will bring it about in a timely manner. Suffering and death must be judgment for specific sin or crime. Lack of such hardship is evidence of your goodness. But life isn't that way. Why the righteous suffer and the wicked prosper is a question of the ages, but it has clarity in God's Word. We'll have to stray a bit from our text to get there but it sends us out for answers that only God can satisfactorily address. Join us for "The Island" from Acts 28:1-6.

The sermon from our evening serice on Sunday 29th June 2025.

Join us as we discuss Paul's arrival in Rome in chains, and how the Book of Acts ends abruptly, but the Living Church today continues through the work of every Christian serving as Jesus' instrument.

Acts 28 concludes with a fascinating story that begins with a shipwreck and culminates in the power of the Gospel. thebridgebluffton.com

Send us a textGood morning! Thank you for taking a few minutes to listen. If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)Spiritbuilding.com - (premium quality paperback)Youtube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comActs 28 Paul and the shipwreck survivors arrive in Malta, where the islanders display remarkable kindness. A viper bites Paul, but he suffers no harm, which leads the people to regard him as a god. He heals many, including the father of the chief official, Publius, creating opportunities to share the gospel. After three months, they set sail for Rome. Upon their arrival, Paul is allowed to live under house arrest, where he meets with the leading Jewish men. He recounts his story, and they show special interest in learning about “this sect” of Christians they have heard so much about. Using the Old Testament, Paul explains the kingdom of God. Some believe, while others reject the message. Paul then focuses on teaching the Gentiles and remains in Rome for two years.  The people of Malta are welcoming to those who have been shipwrecked, serving as a wonderful example of kindness for us all. This generosity fosters a relationship with Paul, allowing him to perform signs and teach them about Jesus. Acts of kindness toward strangers, the essence of hospitality, open doors for spiritual blessings. It is amazing how God utilizes the shipwreck to disseminate the gospel in Malta. God operates in unexpected ways to reach receptive hearts with the truth. While Paul encounters opposition in Rome, he also discovers many who joyfully embrace the name of Jesus. In every setting, circumstance, and audience, it is God's desire for His followers to share “the kingdom of God concerning the Lord Jesus Christ.” God of Wisdom, thank You for guiding our lives to deeper faith and to reflect the light of Jesus in all situations. Storms in life are inevitable, and sometimes shipwrecks occur. However, the sun always rises on a new day, bringing fresh opportunities to honor the King. Father, we pray for safety and peace. More importantly, we pray for Your will to be accomplished in our lives. Use us to bring help and healing to others. Lead us to ears that are willing to hear. And thank You for the amazing kingdom of Your beloved Son!   Thought Questions: -       Why were the natives kind to a group of sailors and prisoners? What was the result, and how should that affect how you treat others? -       God used a shipwreck to bring the gospel to Malta. Can you see unpredictable paths in your life where God has led you to share Jesus? -       Scripture taught that many would not listen. Paul turned to those who would. How can that encourage you in your evangelistic work?

Big Idea: Our resurrected purpose comes through seeing the resurrected King Jesus 1. To know Jesus (v 1-14) 2. To love him (v 15-17) 3. To love his church (v 15-17) 4. To sacrificially follow him (v 18-25)

Craig Coady

Big Idea: Wherever there are lost people we should proclaim the name of Jesus boldly, contextually, and with welcome for the lost. 1. Church planting establishes a gospel presence in the center of culture. 2. Church planting reaches the broken and builds bridges to the lost 3. Church planting proclaims the gospel in a culture of confusion 4. Church planting declares Christ with boldness and clarity in every context.

In Acts 28:16–31, we are reminded that we are still “Facing a Task Unfinished;” a task that is as urgent and important as in the time of Paul.

We've come to the conclusion of our study in Acts. But it's really only the beginning! We continue on where the Book of Acts concludes.

After much anticipation, Paul arrives in Rome, continuing his traditional ministry model of reaching the Jews first and then the Gentiles. The Jews largely reject the gospel. While Paul remains in chains, the gospel continues to spread. Preached by Jared Kress on May 11th, 2025. Series: "Church on Trial, The Book of Acts." Primary Text: Acts 28:11-31. 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

Acts 28 tells of the entire company of the ship arriving safely on Malta at a place today known as St Paul's Bay. Here the ship's company will remain over winter until Paul journeys to Rome. The night of their arrival is cold and wet. A fire is kindled to dry them and to provide warmth. As Paul assists with the gathering of wood for the fire a venomous viper comes out from the fire and sinks its fangs into Paul's hand. The superstitious locals think Paul must have been a murderer who having escaped the vengeance of the sea is now being punished by God. Paul shakes the snake into the fire. The locals watch Paul waiting for him to convulse, swell up and die an agonising death – none of these things happen. So they change their minds into thinking that he must be a god. Paul now is lodged for three days with the chief man of the island named Publius. Publius' father is sick with dysentery; but is miraculously healed by the Apostle. After leaving Malta three months later Paul takes a ship to the mainland where the journey to Rome continues. Along the journey Paul is given the privileges not normally given to a prisoner. The Apostle stops and meets several groups of believers on his journey to Rome. In Rome he calls together the local Jewish leaders and explains why he is in Rome. These Jewish leaders had received no information from any other Jews concerning Paul. After discussing his case it is thought that he might be set at liberty. The Apostle says that he was left with no alternative than to put his case before Caesar when the Judean Jews objected to his being released. The Roman Jews reveal that they have heard that the Christian sect is everywhere spoken against. A large gathering of Jews comes to Paul's place of residence at an appointed time. The aged Apostle tells them from morning to evening the message of the prophets. Paul concludes his address with the words of Isaiah 6 in chapter 6 which prophesied Jewish opposition to the Gospel message. The great Apostle claims that the Gentiles will favourably respond to the teaching of Christ. The book of Acts commenced in chapter 1:8 with the need for the gospel to be taken “to the uttermost parts of the earth” and concluded with that task being completed: see Jesus great commission to the Apostles in Mark 16:15-16. And also after Paul's miraculous preservation after having been bitten by a venomous viper recorded in Acts 28 verses3:5 compare with Mark 16:17-18. Two years expire and as no case is brought against Paul he is released to continue his preaching. All of these things occur before the fire in Rome and the intense persecution which came upon believers by the Emperor Nero from that time onwards. The 31st verses of Acts 28 is an epitome of the entire book: “Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.”

In Acts 28:1–16 we reflect on the end of this “Extraordinary Journey” that led Paul next to the island of Malta and eventually to the heart of the Roman Empire where not only would he defend himself before Caesar but make disciples for the glory of God.

I just heard a story this week from one in our congregation who had a person show up at his door looking for answers. How did he know where to go? How did he know he would care? Because of the consistency of this person’s life AND his commitment to always speak the truth in love. While we don’t have control over a person’s reception of the message of the Messiah, we can sow seeds and pray diligently for God to do His work in the person’s heart to open their eyes. Then, when the person is ready, they know who to come to, and we can play a part in the eye-opening by sharing Jesus as the Messiah. We are wrapping up the final text of Acts this weekend. Paul is under house arrest and gathers the leaders and later a larger group of influential people. He spends an entire day trying to convince them of the kingdom of God and of Jesus the Messiah. Some are convicted, but still others are blinded. Paul didn’t pick and choose with whom he shared this truth; he shared it with everyone who showed up. Who is it that you can influence? Pray for opportunities — that God would open your eyes to when and where you should be speaking truth in love. Let’s be a church in which everyone humbly prays, “God, open my eyes,” then is ready to move as God leads. Key Scripture: Acts 28:30-31 - "He lived there two whole years at his own expense, and welcomed all who came to him, proclaiming the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness and without hindrance."

Anchored in Hope: Growing Deeper in Faith – Hebrews 6 Part 1In this episode of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane walk through Hebrews 6, unpacking its deep encouragements and strong warnings. What does it mean to move beyond spiritual infancy? How do we respond to the sobering call to maturity while holding fast to the unshakable hope we have in Christ? This conversation leans into the tension of warning and promise, reminding us that our faith isn't meant to stay stagnant—but to grow, bear fruit, and remain anchored in God's unchanging promises.____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams____________________________________ Get Jamie's Newest Book:Living Loved: An 8-week Journey to Living Fully Loved
