The Courage of a Clear Conscience (Acts 24)
Chase Replogle
Pastor
Held before Governor Felix, Paul once again offered a defense against the Jewish charges. But Felix made no decision. For two years, he held Paul, continuing the conversation. Felix even felt the conviction of Paul’s preaching, but he would not decide. By contrast, Paul gives us an image of courage and faithfulness, motivated by his own clear conscience. We look at how courage and conscience are related.
