He gave Fells tbe fullest praise when he am] all the people knew that he l|ed£ for Fells was one of the worst governors—destitute of morals and justice. He brought a four­ fold charge against Paul: 1. “A pestilent fellow” (v. 5). This would Indicate a fellow utterly base and corrupt—* plague. 2. An Inciter of rebellion, a mover of sedition (v. 5). This they hoped would bring him' Into conflict with’the Roman power. 3. That he was the ringleader of a sect—a schismatlcal party—a heretic (v. 5). 4. That he had profaned the temple (v. 6), II. Paul’* Defense Cw. 10*21), • .* In this defense note: 1. Paul’t frankness and courtesy (v. 10),, Flattery Is entirely wanting,. He gives recognition-of the fact that Felix had been ruler of this people long enough to be able to judge Justly, as the habits and ways of the Jews were familiar to him; and then, In a Ilgnl- fied manner; assumes that Felix will . render a just decision based upon the facts of .the case. 2. The charge of sedition denied (w. Hi 12). He' flatly and scornfully de­ nied this chax-ge, showing Its utter falsity, since the time was too short, being bnt twelve days since he went to Jerusalem, and half of that time had been spent as a prisoner of the Ro­ mans. His conduct while there dis­ proved It—hfe disputed with no man In the temple; neither did he make any attempt to- incite, the people in the city nor in the synagogue, 3. The charge of heresy (w* 14-10). This charge lie met by a concession and a denial. He admitted that he was of the “Way" which they called heresy, but clearly showed that It was Jn keeping with the Hebrew religion: (1) he worshiped the same God (v. 14); (2). he fully believed In the same Scriptures <v. 14) ; (8) he had the same hope of a coming resurrection of the dead (v, 15)J He declared that he made as the principle of life a con­ science void of offense before God and man. . 4. The charge of sacrilege, or profa­ nation of the temple (vv. 17-21). This charge he refuted by showing (1) that he had come all the way from Greece (v. 17) to worship a t the feast; <2) that he had not come up empty-hand­ ed, but had brought altns for his.na­ tion .<v, 17); (3) that there were not competent witnesses present to testify as to his behavior in the temple (v, ,10) ; by challenging his enemies to testify as to his conduct In the council (v. 20). III. Paul Before Felix the Second Time (w. 22-27). This Is a sort of a sequel to the trial. Wicked as Felix was, Paul's^ manner somewhat . won his favor,’ though he did not release him. His sentence was.Indulgent Imprisonment, which kept 1dm free from his enemies , while under Roman protection. Felix sent for Paul that he might bear of Christ from him. Paul behaved him­ self aright before these sinners In high life. He reasoned of righteousness, self-control and Judgment to come, be­ fore Felix and his sinful wife, with such power that Felix was terrified and declared that he would hear Paul furtherfcat a convenient time. Tills was a most flimsy excuse for not changing his life and granting Justice to Paul. He was so in bondage to sin that he was unwilling to change. Also he hoped that by delaying matters he would reeelve a bribe. The Lord Chanaeth Not And I will come near to you to Judg- en t.
