A WALK THROUGH THE BOOK OF ACTS
PART VVVI - VII
"I, Paul continued to have King Agrippa's attention when in the audition room at the palace in Caesarea.... I had already shared with him that the Voice Who had spoken to me while on the road to Damascus belonged to Jesus.... I knew too that I next needed to let him know these were not Jesus's last words to me.... I should inform him that Jesus had given me a task.... Quite a challenging task in fact.... So I shared with King Agrippa that Jesus had told me I was to go to my people, the Jews.... And I was to go to the Gentiles as well.... Jesus had, furthermore, told me that I was to preach to all of them about forgiveness of sins.... I knew it was important that King Agrippa knew exactly what Jesus had told me to do.... So I gave him a very detailed account of Jesus's words to me.".... Please read the typed out attachment when you will learn of the task Jesus had given to Paul....
ATTACHMENT A WALK THROUGH THE BOOK OF ACTS
PART XXVI - VII
The same Jesus Who had told him to stop persecuting Him then gave Paul his commission as you can read in Acts 26:16-18
"Now get up and stand on your feet. I have appeared to you to appoint you as a servant and a witness of what you have seen of Me and what I will show you. I will rescue you from your own people and from the Gentiles. I am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in Me."
Paul was not to go home and do nothing. No, the Lord had a task for him and quite a challenging task.
