Acts 24 : 10 - 23 Paul's Defense Before Felix

In Acts 24:10-23, Paul presents his defense before the Roman governor Felix. Accused by Jewish leaders of causing unrest and desecrating the temple, Paul articulates his innocence and outlines his commitment to worshiping God according to the Way, which his accusers label as a sect. He emphasizes his adherence to Jewish laws and his peaceful presence in Jerusalem. Felix, intrigued by Paul's testimony about faith in Christ, postpones the decision, keeping Paul under guard but granting him some freedoms, including the ability for his friends to care for his needs.
