As the Apostle Paul approaches the end of his letter to the Roman Christians, he reiterates his plans to visit them prior to journeying further to Spain. There was no more work for him to do, and finally the opportunity had arisen whereby he could now take the gospel to "the end of the earth" (Acts 1:8). Dr. Paul, though, points out that the Apostle's Paul journey was filled with difficulty and intrigue that he probably did not fully anticipate, as was recorded in Acts 21-26. So, Dr. Paul takes some time to discuss those difficulties by alluding to one of the most compelling chapters dealing with Paul's journey just prior to him boarding a ship and sailing for Rome, Acts 26. It is part of the reason why Paul would write the Romans, "I know that when I come to you I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ" (Rom. 15:29). Amen.
