2. The Apostle Paul is testifying
before Governor Festus, King
Agrippa, and Agrippa’s wife
and sister -- Bernice.
He is speaking directly to
King Agrippa.
2
3. He is telling of his
conversion on the road
to Damascus.
No better witnessing
tool.
Jesus has appeared to Paul in a bright Light.
“I am Jesus Whom you have been persecuting.”
Now He is telling Paul what he must do.
3
4. Acts 26:16 But
rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have
appeared unto thee for this Purpose, to make thee a
minister and a witness both of these things which
thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I
will appear unto thee;
God saves each one for a Purpose.
We are part of His Plan to further
the Kingdom of God.

5. We must do nothing that will hinder us from
fulfilling God’s Purpose for us.
Seek no pleasure that is contrary to God’s Will.
Don’t let the pursuit of money and stuff hinder
the pursuit of the Will of God.
Don’t let the cares of this world weigh us down.
Steps that God
Whole
Has ordered
5
6. (Jesus said) Mark 4 19 And the cares of this world,
and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of
other things entering in, choke the Word, and it
becometh unfruitful.

7. 17 Delivering thee from the people (Jews), and from
the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, 18 To
open their eyes, and to turn them from
darkness to light, and from the
power of Satan unto God, that they may receive
forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them
which are sanctified by faith that is in Me.
When people hear and believe the Gospel,
things happen for their good.

8. Acts 26:19 Whereupon,O king Agrippa, I was not
disobedient unto the Heavenly vision: 20 But
shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at
Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea,
and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent
and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.
All that Paul did was in obedience to the Lord,
Jesus Christ who spoke to him that day.
What did he preach?
8
10. Be faithful in good things.
Worship is not a
spectator sport. 10
11. 21 Forthese causes the Jews caught me in the
temple, and went about to kill me. 22 Having
therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this
day, witnessing both to small and great, saying
none other things than those which the prophets
and Moses did say should come:
Still witnessing ‘cause I ain’t dead yet.
Witnessing the Truth which was prophesied by
Moses and the prophets:
Messiah has come and His Name is Jesus.
11
12. 23 ThatChrist (Messiah) should suffer, and that He
should be the first that should rise from the dead,
and should shew Light unto the people, and to the
Gentiles.
There is no other
message that will
save men’s souls.
