45. King Agrippa decides to meet and hear Paul - The king, after listening to the interesting story, told Festus that he would also like to hear Paul. Festus answered: "Tomorrow you can hear it." The next day Agrippa and Bernice being in the courtroom, accompanied by senior officials and top people in the city, Paul was called and presented by Festo, who said the visitor and to other persons the following words: "King Agrippa, and you all citizens here! You have before our eyes this man, because of which all the Jews appealed to me in Jerusalem and in this city, shouting that he could no longer be left alive. But I'm convinced he did not commit anything to deserve death. And when he appealed to Caesar, decided to send it. But I have nothing concrete to write to the Sovereign. That is why I introduced to you and especially you, King Agrippa, after this session, which may have something to write, because it seems absurd to send a prisoner without stating clearly what the charges brought against him. " (Acts, 25:22 to 25:27.) 

46. Paul goes to Rome and Luke goes along - Decided boarding Paul to Rome, gave the Apostle of the Gentiles and some prisoners to an official named Julio, the Imperial Regiment. Luke went along - at least it can be seen from the way he narrates the fact. He related: "We embark on a ship in Adramício, who went from the ports of the province of Asia, and we left. He followed us Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica. On the second day we made a stop in Sidon. Julius was very human to Paul, allowing him to stay with friends and in their care. Then, from there, navigate to northern Cyprus because the winds were blowing in a direction opposite to ours. Then across the sea of ​​Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia. There the officer found a ship of Alexandria, who was leaving for Italy, and he put us therein." (Acts 27:1 to 27:6.) 

47. The journey becomes very slow and extremely dangerous - Lucas says the trip was slow and difficult because the wind forced the ship to head toward the southern island of Crete and the cost was arrived at a place called Good Havens, near the city of Lasha. Elapsed enough time had passed because until the day of fasting, and with inland become dangerous, Paul drew the attention of those responsible for the ship, saying, "Sirs, I perceive that this voyage is beginning to be of very great risk and harm not only for the ship, but also for our lives." The official, however, relied more on the pilot and the owner of the vessel in Paul. In addition, the port was not for the ship to pass the winter there, why the majority preferred to depart, hoping to reach Phoenix and spend the winter in this location. The ship resumed, so the trip, coasting close to the island of Crete. Soon after, however, has been unleashed on the side of the island and the Northeast hurricane named vessel was dragged by the wind. The crew did everything to lessen the danger, but the storm was terrible and had to make that back the next day, the cargo was thrown overboard. For days not seen neither the sun nor the stars, and the boat adrift, there was no hope of salvation. (Acts 27:7 to 27:20.)

Answers to questions 

1. In the presence of King Agrippa, Paul said that word in your defense?  

Here are the words of Paul: I have been fortunate, King Agrippa, that there is before you today to defend myself all the things I am accused by Jews, especially knowing that I have knowledge of all customs and questions which are among the Jews, so I beg you to hear me patiently. As for my life, from his youth, which was at the beginning among my own nation at Jerusalem, all Jews know, knowing me from the beginning (if they would testify), which, according to the strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee. And now the hope of the promise that God has made to our fathers, I'm here and I am judged. To which our twelve tribes hope to reach, serving God night and day. For this hope, O king, I am accused by Jews. What then? Judges himself thought incredible by you that God raises the dead? Well I thought that was against the name of Jesus of Nazareth should I do many things, which also did in Jerusalem. And, having received authority from the chief priests, shut up many of the saints in prisons, and killed them when I gave my vote against them. And I punished them oft in every synagogue and compelled them to blaspheme. Exceedingly mad against them, even to foreign cities I persecuted them. What, then going to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests, at midday, O king, I saw the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining around me and those who journeyed with me. And we were all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me and saying in the Hebrew, 'Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? It is hard for thee to kick against the goad. And I said then, who are you, Lord? And he answered: I am Jesus whom you are persecuting, but rise up and stand on your feet, because I appeared for it, to make thee a minister and witness to the things which thou hast seen, those for whom I will appear yet, by getting rid of these people and the Gentiles, to whom I send you, to open their eyes, and from darkness to light, and the power of Satan unto God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith in me. Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision. But declared first to those in Damascus and Jerusalem, and throughout the land of Judea, and to the Gentiles, that reform, and to turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance. For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me. Having therefore obtained help of God, till this day I stand witnessing both to small and great, saying nothing more than what the prophets and Moses said would happen, that is, that Christ must suffer, and being the first to rise from the dead, would proclaim light to the people and the Gentiles. (Acts 26:1 to 26:23.)

2. Reaction that King Agrippa had heard the words spoken by Paul?  

King Agrippa said to Paul, I just want to persuade me to become a Christian! Paul answered: Would to God that, in little or a lot, not only you but all who hear me this day might become such as I am, except these bonds. Then the king stood up and said unto Festus, could come off this man, if not appealed unto Caesar. (Acts, 26:24 to 26:32.)

3. As called the centurion in charge of carrying Paul to Rome?  

The centurion was called belonged to Julius and Augustus' band. (Acts 27:1 to 27:3.)

4. When everyone thought would die harvested by storm, what words Paul told them?

Paul told them: Outside, in fact, reasonable, O Lord, take me heard me and not from Crete, and so avoid this nuisance and loss. But now I exhort you to cheer up, because life does not lose any of you, but of the ship. For this night the angel of God, whose I am and whom I serve, was with me, saying: Fear not, Paul, thou must be brought to Caesar, and lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee. Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe in God, what's happening to me as I was told. And yet we must run aground on an island. (Acts, 27:20 to 27:26.)

5. How many people were in the ship? How many died?  

There were the ship two hundred and seventy-six persons. All arrived safe to land. (Acts, 27:37 to 27:44.)
