Acts 23-24

S: Acts 24:24-25 "After some days Felix came with his wife, Drusilla, who was Jewish, and asked for Paul to be brought to him. He listened to Paul talk about believing in Christ Jesus. But Felix became afraid when Paul spoke about living right, self-control, and the time when God will judge the world. He said, "Go away now. When I have more time, I will call for you."

O: Paul was telling the story of Jesus to Felix and his wife.

A: Imagine that a Biblical character shows the exact same behavior of someone who lives today. Jesus wants to radically change our lives and all we care about it why he wants us to change. We just want to have our God that fits in our box and the blue-eyed Jesus that just loves everyone for who they are. I heard someone who smokes pot say recently, "Well, God and I have an understanding about pot." Yeah dumbass, you're stupid! It's a habit (sin) and it's against the law (sin). You are living in sin and you think that God is OK with that?

P: Father, thank You for changing me even when I didn't want to be changed!
