Acts‬ ‭26‬:‭15‬-‭18‬

 ““I said, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ “The Lord said, ‘I am Jesus. I am the one you are persecuting. Stand up! I have chosen you to be my servant. You will tell people about me—what you have seen today and what I will show you. This is why I have come to you. 

I will keep you safe from your own people and from the non-Jewish people, the ones I am sending you to. You will make them able to understand the truth. 

They will turn away from darkness to the light. They will turn away from the power of Satan, and they will turn to God. Then their sins can be forgiven, and they can be given a place among God’s people—those who have been made holy by believing in me.’””

Acts 26:9-11

 ““I used to think that I should do everything I could against Jesus from Nazareth. And that’s what I did, beginning in Jerusalem. 

The leading priests gave me the authority to put many of God’s people in jail. And when they were being killed, I agreed that it was a good thing. 

I visited all the synagogues and punished them, trying to make them curse Jesus. My anger against these people was so strong that I went to other cities to find them and punish them.”‬

Acts‬ ‭25‬:‭24‬-‭27

 “Festus said, “King Agrippa and all of you gathered here with us, you see this man. All the Jewish people, here and in Jerusalem, have complained to me about him. When they complain about him, they shout that he should be killed. 

When I judged him, I did not find him guilty of any crime worthy of death. But he asked to be judged by Caesar, so I decided to send him to Rome. 

However, I don’t really know what to tell Caesar that this man has done wrong. So I have brought him before all of you—especially you, King Agrippa. I hope that you can question him and give me something to write to Caesar. 

I think it is foolish to send a prisoner to Caesar without making some charges against him.””

 “Ananias, the high priest, was there. When he heard this, he told the men who were standing near Paul to hit him in the mouth.

You will be his witness to all people. You will tell them what you have seen and heard. 

Now, don’t wait any longer. Get up, be baptized and wash away your sins, trusting in Jesus to save you.’”
