Reading
SAA Notes
Agrippa was living with his sister Bernice publicly. This was then a greater scandal than Herod the Tetrach (Luke 3:19) living with his brother’s wife. (Matthew 14:3,4) Notice that Paul addressed Agrippa politely and respectfully.
SJA Notes
* Dear God, thank You for today and for Your word to us today. Please show us Jesus.
“Why is it thought incredible by any of you that God raises the dead?”
Paul continues to return to the truth of the matter.
He was being persecuted because of his hope in Jesus, the promise of resurrection shown in God the Son being murdered on the cross and three days later rising from the dead.
“Why is it thought incredible by any of you that God raises the dead?”
What wonderful resurrection hope we read of here – And this is the hope we have!
Let us be encouraged that God did raise Jesus from the dead, and that we look forward to the day when the mortal will be made immortal, the perishable made imperishable – When we are all changed.
* God Above,
Thank You for Jesus, His birth, life, death and resurrection.
May we never lose sight of the wonder of You bringing life out of death!
Thank You for saving us when we were dead in our sins.
Amen.
