He Plants His Footsteps in the Sea
After meeting face-to-face with Festus and King Agrippa, Paul finally set sail with his companions for Rome to face trial before Caesar, just as God had promised. When the ship was suddenly caught in a hurricane-force storm, the apostle clung firmly to the assurances of God, and his faith was a comfort and encouragement to others onboard. Alistair Begg reminds us that while God’s promises do not alleviate life’s challenges, He can be trusted to bring us safely to our eternal destiny.
Paul Sails for Rome
1And when it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan Cohort named Julius.

Series: For the Sake of the Gospel, Volume 2

Are you passionate about sharing the Gospel? How willing are you to sacrifice and take risks so that unbelievers may become followers of Jesus and believers may become better equipped to share the good news of salvation? As we consider these questions, we are helped by the example of the apostle Paul, who heroically pursued God’s call through all manner of difficulty and throughout the Mediterranean world—all so that others may come to know Christ as Lord.
In volume one of this series, Alistair Begg follows Paul from Corinth to Caesarea on his final missionary trek. For the sake of the Gospel, Paul endured trials of every kind, boldly proclaiming the good news and glorifying God even to those who doggedly persecuted him. Throughout his journey, we see evidence of God’s grace, providential protection, and provision, which underpinned Paul’s confidence and enabled him, as it enables us today, to live out the faith he proclaimed.

Are you passionate about sharing the Gospel? How willing are you to sacrifice and take risks so that unbelievers may become followers of Jesus and believers may become better equipped to share the good news of salvation? As we consider these questions, we are helped by the example of the apostle Paul, who heroically pursued God’s call through all manner of difficulty and throughout the Mediterranean world—all so that others may come to know Christ as Lord.
In volume two of this series, we learn that nothing would stop Paul from preaching and teaching about Jesus—not a trial before royalty, a storm at sea, a shipwreck, a poisonous snake bite, chains, or even prolonged wrongful imprisonment. Paul was zealous to make all his days and deeds count for the Gospel. As Alistair Begg explains, his dramatic journey to Rome illustrates God’s faithfulness and encourages us to see our circumstances as opportunities to share the good news.
