Paul was determined to go to Rome, even knowing it could be a one-way trip. He would take the gospel to the highest levels of government, but en route, a shipwreck threatened to cut the journey short. Listen as Pastor Lutzer shares how this incredible story unfolds and how it should embolden our own faith.

Felix was a Roman governor in Caesarea, Rome’s headquarters in what is now Israel. Facing Paul, Felix and his wife Drusilla found themselves confronted with the Gospel, which brought their own sins to light. The Gospel was working its power in the ancient world.

In Jerusalem, some new believers insisted that converts to the Christian faith continue to observe Jewish laws. The conflict was sharp, and Paul had to settle an argument that put the outreach of the Gospel at risk.  
October 21, 2016
The Apostle Paul rejected the counsel of his peers and went back to Jerusalem after completing two missionary journeys. His determination to settle a church split there drove him into hardship, and eventually, execution in Rome.
