Contrast between hypocrite - self-serving Ananias = lived his life before Rome, before power brokers in Sanhedrien, Almighty $$ (ROME knew what he was and how he could be bought) = you may have to stand up before people who embody SUCCESS by this world’s standard…
3. High priest who presided over the Sanhedrin when the apostle Paul was arrested and questioned by that council in Jerusalem at the end of Paul’s third missionary journey (). Ananias was one of the witnesses who testified against Paul in Caesarea when he was on trial before Felix, the Roman governor (). This Ananias was appointed high priest by Herod Agrippa II in AD 48 and served until AD 59. The Jewish historian Josephus wrote that he was wealthy, haughty, and unscrupulous. He was known for his collaboration with the Romans and for his severity and cruelty. Hated by nationalistic Jews, he was killed by them when war with Rome broke out in AD 66.

vs. God, plus on e makes a majority = Marion PItts , Latmimer and Ridley = lived my life before God = not pretend, not preform - inconsistencies, yes, mistakes, even sin, but before God - nkonws our heart,
Such a big part of our witne4ss is how we live before Romans and Jews - those in covenant family and those in the world
= elders and deacons listen = good reputation with outsides.. every Christain Jesus says, see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven, spouse of unbelivers - won not by words - but long haul example of life… Parents time to talk time to live ...
Chiliarch wants to see Pauls’ statemetn in before God and man, do you take PAINS =
Acts 24:16 ESV
So I always take pains to have a clear conscience toward both God and man.
After several years came back PRESENT ALMS = RELIEF FUND? and to “PRESENT OFFERINGS” - blood ones in temple? Found purified in temple = OFFENCE IN GOSPEL NOT IN US… - Asiatic Jews ought to be here make accusation did nothing wrong to them, and Sanhedrin foud nothing wrong … OTHER THAN THIS ONE THING
Acts 24:21 ESV
other than this one thing that I cried out while standing among them: ‘It is with respect to the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial before you this day.’ ”
Would you stand up with clarity and say - moral not offended , example of integrity AND biggest deal that I would stake my life on - biggest difference between your point of view and mine ; RESURRECTION -= THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING! YET AT THE core of what Pharisees have in their book, but only in seed form????

Like Christ with Pilate… Pharisees acknowledge We find nothing wrong with this man!
V.11 Stand with integrity for Christ, facts of his resurrection = LORD stood by Him!
STAND BY ME … assurance like before .. hard times but will go to Rome, time has not yet come …
