October 5, 2014: I Know Where You Are Going – Landon Lynch

Paul is clear on where he must go. Rome. But if he goes there he risks his life for the great city was the home of Caesar. Paul’s compulsion to head to Rome reflects his heart, and the arch of the book of Acts. Rome – is the epicenter of the world at this time. And this is how far the gospel will go.

The beauty in these words of Paul is the recognition that he is being both sent and drawn toward Rome. This is because of the reality of the kingdom welling up inside of him. He will not be stopped. Paul knows where he is going because of who he is and who God is. Armed with this, he knows what he should then go and do.
