In Acts 25-27 Paul continues to stand trial, this time before King Agrippa. Chapter 26 is Paul telling his story of conversion to Christianity at Agrippa's request. At the end of his story, King Agrippa says to Paul, "'Do you think that in such a short time you can persuade me to be a Christian?' Paul replied, "'Short time or long--I pray God that not only you but all who are listening to me today may become what I am, except for these chains.'"
I love Paul's response. He is polite, but honest--passionate but not pushy.
If you have something wonderful, naturally you want everyone to have it.
I loose sight of that at times, and I need Paul to remind me.
