Acts 28.17-31 The Apostle Paul leaves us with a challenge. As he has done throughout his years of ministry, so ahe does in Rome. Kept by the power of God’s promise to reach Rome he sets out to proclaim the gospel and does so for two years while awaiting his trial. At the anniversary celebration of this church, how fitting to conclude with a challenge from Paul to take his example and endeavor to reach others with the gospel, ever remembering the promise of Jesus before His ascension that His Spirit would be our power to witness. The challenge is to take the baton, carry it and pass it on to the next generation so that the gospel is unashamedly proclaimed until Christ returns.
