The Felix Connection
Acts 24:1-27
Dr. Gregg Hagg, a seasoned pastor and theologian, conducted a two-year sermon series on the Book of Acts, which chronicles the spread of the early Christian church after the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This series was designed to provide a comprehensive and engaging overview of this pivotal time in Christian history and to help congregants gain a deeper understanding of the challenges and triumphs faced by the early church.
Over the course of the series, Dr. Hagg delved into the key themes and lessons presented in Acts, such as the importance of community, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the need for boldness in spreading the Gospel message. He drew on his extensive knowledge of the Bible and Christian history to provide insightful and thought-provoking commentary on each passage, and encouraged members of his congregation to reflect on how these lessons apply to their own lives and spiritual journeys.
In Acts 24:1-27, Dr. Gregg Hagg covers "The Felix Connection" in a sermon given on April 14, 2007. The passage tells the story of Paul's trial before Felix, the Roman governor of Judea, where he is accused by the high priest and other Jews. Dr. Hagg explores the political and religious context of the time and how it relates to the charges against Paul. He also highlights the importance of standing firm in one's faith in the face of opposition and persecution.
