“We are all interpreting life, and we all share life out of our interpretations with one another. None of us live life based on the facts, but based on our interpretations of the facts.” Paul Tripp RESURRECTION

In love 5 he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— EPHESIANS 1:4B-5 (ESV) ADOPTED

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, EPHESIANS 1:7 REDEEMED

In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, EPHESIANS 1:13 SEALED

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, EPHESIANS 1:7 REDEEMED

…that the Christ must suffer and that, by being the first to rise from the dead, he would proclaim light both to our people and to the Gentiles.” ACTS 26:23-29 RESURRECTION

24 And as he was saying these things in his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, “Paul, you are out of your mind; your great learning is driving you out of your mind.” ACTS 26:23-29 RESURRECTION

25 But Paul said, “I am not out of my mind, most excellent Festus, but I am speaking true and rational words. ACTS 26:23-29 RESURRECTION

26 For the king knows about these things, and to him I speak boldly. For I am persuaded that none of these things has escaped his notice, for this has not been done in a corner. ACTS 26:23-29 RESURRECTION

27 King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know that you believe.” 28 And Agrippa said to Paul, “In a short time would you persuade me to be a Christian?” ACTS 26:23-29 RESURRECTION

29 And Paul said, “Whether short or long, I would to God that not only you but also all who hear me this day might become such as I am—except for these chains.” ACTS 26:23-29 RESURRECTION

24 And as he was saying these things in his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, “Paul, you are out of your mind; your great learning is driving you out of your mind.” ACTS 26:23-29 RESURRECTION “You are out of your mind, Paul! Your great learning is driving you insane,”

26 For the king knows about these things, and to him I speak boldly. For I am persuaded that none of these things has escaped his notice, for this has not been done in a corner. ACTS 26:23-29 RESURRECTION “The king is familiar with these things, and I can speak freely to him. I am convinced that none of this has escaped his notice, because it was not done in a corner.”
