And Paul said, "I would wish to God, that whether in a short or long time, not only you, but also all who hear me this day, might become such as I am, except for these chains." Acts 26:29
Paul stood before King Agrippa as a prisoner, and preached the gospel of Jesus to him. The king answered that he was almost persuaded to become a Christian. Paul's love for Christ and for his love for lost souls was evident by his actions. He said he hoped the king and everyone who heard his voice would accept Christ. Does our love for Jesus and our love for lost souls motivate us to preach on? It is easy for things to get in our way, so let's don't let that happen to us. May we not be "almost persuaded", but altogether determined.
