The 23rd chapter of Acts provides the believer with the example of Paul using the God-ordained government to his own benefit. We discuss the Constitutional Republican form of government established by the Lord here in America, including the power of the jury and the need to truly understand the Bill of Rights.
We will see that in the days of Christ and the Apostles, lawlessness resides in places of power as those with power ignore and pervert law. Such is the case in these last days in American and around the world.
But in some cases, as in the case with the chief captain found in our text, the opportunist politician can actually serve the cause of the Gospel as Paul is transferred to Felix for a hearing. Paul is accompanied by a politically-motivated letter meant to make the chief captain look like a hero.
This is a study in human depravity and divine sovereignty. The Divine Soveriegn wins.
