Acts 25:13-22
Festus knew that Jews did not charged Paul any of the crimes he expected. Instead, they had some points of dispute with him about their own religion ad about a dead man named Jesus who Paul claimed was alive.
Then Agrippa said to Festus, "I would like to hear this man myself."
When King Agrippa comes to pay his respects to the new governor. Paul's case is put to him. This is Agrippa II, son of the Herod of Acts 12:1, great-grandson of the Herod the Great, Bernice, his sister and acting wife, crowned an inglorious(光榮) career by becoming mistress(情婦) to the emperors Vespasian and Titus.
Why?
Luke described detail of the speaking among Festus and Aprippa. For Paul has not guilt in Rome's law. Paul should be released. But those governor listened to the Jews and did not follow the justice.
The view point of Christian in the world should be clean and follow the law and a man with love and blameless.
How?
Can I be a good Christian like Paul?
