PASSAGE: Before the Sanhedrin, The Plot to Kill Paul, Paul Transferred to Caesarea
MEMORY VERSE: “Can anyone hide in secret places so that I cannot see him?" declares the LORD. "Do not I fill heaven and earth?" declares the LORD.”- Jeremiah 23:24
NOTES: (v.1-11) Paul was taken before the commander and chief priests, and he spoke against the Sanhedrin, saying that they themselves violate the law by commanding they he be struck. He also said, "My brothers, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee. I stand on trial because of my hope in the resurrection of the dead." At this, a great dispute broke out between the Pharisees, and there was a great uproar. But the following night the Lord told Paul, "Take courage! As you have testified about my in Jerusalem, so you must also testify in Rome."
-(v.12-22) The Jews formed a conspiracy and bound themselves with an oath not to eat or drink until they had killed Paul. When Paul heard of this, he told it to the commander.
-(v.23-35) Paul was transferred to Caesarea with a letter from the commander. When the governor read the letter and learned that he was from Cilicia, he ordered that Paul be kept under guard at the palace.
ACT OF LOVE: Today is the two month mark of my 365 days of love! Yes, that's right--it was two months ago on April 24, 2010 that I began this entire love life challenge. So WHAT in the world did I do??
For CSF, our last event was the middle school (Bert Lynn/Jefferson) graduations after school, but I wasn't the one chairing it. However, I got a call an hour before the event from the other board members telling me that they couldn't make it to the first shift, and asked if I could please chair the first half for them? My first instinct was reluctance, as I had no ride (my parents were gone), and I still needed to finish up some stuff before the Redondo graduation. But seeing that this was the perfect opportunity to show love, I agreed!
Also, I went to support my friends at the Redondo graduation with flowers/leis (although I wanted to do this and it was fun for me). I had never gone to a Redondo graduation before!
