This sermon by Pastor Mike McKinney focuses on Acts 21:37-22:29, particularly emphasizing Paul the Apostle's reformation, testimony and mission. He begins with the background of the Book of Acts and the expansion of the early church post the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The attention is drawn to Paul, who once was a persecutor of Christians, but due to an awe-inspiring encounter with the risen Lord Jesus, he was transformed and became one of the most influential leaders of the early Christian church.The sermon highlights Paul's mission of delivering his life-changing testimony in Jerusalem where he was saved by Roman guards from a riot instigated by non-believer Jews. In spite of the hostility, he courageously shared his testimony and journey of transformation, beginning with his early years as a devout Jew, to his vision of Jesus on his way to Damascus, thereby, effectively engaging his opposers, creating relatability to his past. Through this account, Pastor McKinney sheds light on the importance of staying true to your convictions and persistently sharing your testimony, even in the face of adversity. Furthermore, this sermon underscores the importance of witnessing Jesus as the righteous one and the shortcomings of depending solely on self-righteousness. Paul initially believed in attaining salvation through strict adherence to Jewish laws, however by experiencing Jesus, he realized that the true path to salvation is through having faith in Christ, not through personal deeds. This sermon encourages us to exhibit bravery and share our respective experiences as testimonies and champions the immense power of Jesus as a life-changer, regardless of any opposition one might encounter. Pastor McKinney concludes with a compelling reminder of Jesus’s own sacrifice for our sins, inspiring us to bear witness for Him in all circumstances. After all, Jesus bore it all for us.
