While Paul was saying this in his defense, Festus said in a loud voice, "Paul, you are out of your mind! Your great learning is driving you mad." Acts 26:24
On Paul’s way to Rome he had the opportunity to share his faith a number of times. Felix, Festus, and Aprippa were Roman officials that he met along the way. They were tough audiences with rough backgrounds. Paul himself wrote that he was a fool for Christ, and beside himself for the sake of God. Paul was a brand new creation living in an old world. Many people must have thought he was out of his mind and just didn’t say it. When we are transformed in Christ in such a way that changes our lives, our thinking and our speech, some may think we’ve crazy too. Let’s keep on sharing the love of Jesus. When we are ridiculed, we are in good company.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
