DAD'S RAMBLINGS -- THE END OF THE STORY

DAD'S RAMBLINGS – THE END OF THE STORY


"Then Paul dwelt two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who came to him, preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus will all confidence, no one forbidding him." (Acts 28:3-31).


Don't you wish that Luke, the writer of this book, would have written the rest of the story? It does not seem to have a conclusion. What happened to the Apostle Paul? We know from other sources that he was martyred in Rome. But the Book of Acts kind of leaves us hanging.


Perhaps it is because the story is not finished. As we have mentioned before, this book, known as the Acts of the Apostles, is really the Acts of the Holy Spirit through the Apostles.


The Holy Spirit is still active in our world today. He has not gone away, but is still doing great and mighty things in our world through Believers. The story is not done until Jesus comes as King of kings and Lord of lords, and makes all things new.


We are still writing the book today as we live our lives in the power of the Holy Spirit. What words might my life write today to continue the story of God's amazing grace?


Love, Dad
