Unlike our criminal practice, the Roman law : required that a prisoner be given a speedy trial. Much of the spirit ©f modern lawless ness can be traced to the tendency to postpone the trials of criminals, so as to securs the dis missal of the charges. The ap- pearance of Anan- fas the high priest with his assoclates in less than a week accompanied by Tertullus. a prominent Roman criminal lawyer. showed that they were determined to aul's con- viction before Feli sither upon false charges or by bribery, which had heen known to influence the governor's de cision. Tertullus in his charges aga acts and activities of Paul made four distinct accusations, any one of which if proven, would have resulted in se curing a conviction. He charged him with being u public nuisanc He claimed that he was an agitator of sedition. Ile insisted that he was a leader of the Nazarene sect, which was an illegal relizion. He accused the apostle of trvins to desecrate the tem ple.

Tertullus had sought to win the favor of Felix by statements hich all present knew to false. e fawning prosecutor sought to in fluence the decision of the procurator by appealing to the vanity of Felix with flattery, which went far bevond the truth When Paul faced his third trial be e a Roman official, the character of the administrator of the law and his methods of adminisiration differed widely from that of Gallio or Sergius Paulus.

He chal lenzed any of his foes, who were pres ent or absent, to present any evidence that would substantiate any one of the charges. Although the apostle’s en- emies failed to offer any proof of their accu fons. Paul suggested to the procurator that he could easily ascer tain the truthfulness of his state- ments by investigating through official channels his statements concerning the way the apostle had spent his time in Terusalem. Paul pointed out that there was no proof that he was a public pest, for no evidence had been presented that he had been guilty of stirring up_strife, sedition, sectarfanism, or sacriligious acts. e denied that he had been guilty in the temple, syvnagogue, or street of doing any of the things that they had charged against him. It was twelve days since he reached Jerusa- lem. He spent the first day with James and the elders. The next seven days had been spent In performing an orthodox religious rite in the temple. He had been arrested at the close of the required Jewish ritual and the next day had been placed on trial be fore the Sanhedrin. He acknowledged that he was a fol lower of Christ, which was then called the Way. He denied that Christianity, called the “sect of the Nazarene,” was in any way heretical, because he wor- shiped the God of the Jews and be- lieved In their Scriptures. Paul em phasized the unity of Christianity and Judaism. He claimed that they were not separate faiths, but one. He in- sisted that in teaching the doctrine of the resurrection, which was the cen- tral fact and fundamental foundation in the Christian faith, he was in accord ees, i recognized Jew- ish sect, in their views of the resur- rection of the dead. both of the just and unjust.

He had noticed that the apos- tle had collected gifts for the Jerusa- lem poor from his friends, whom he allowed to visit him. Felix Before Paul. During the two vears Paul spent in Caesarea - he had ample opportunity to help develop the church there. by frequent conferences with the leaders. The fact that for five centuries it was a strong Christian center may be at- tributed 1o the work of Paul ivhile he was A prisoner there. Frequently Felix snamancd the prisoner hefore inim o ¢ tiie aposde friends to make it worth while for the procurator to let the apostle go. In three verses we have all the knowl- edge of any one of the numerous con ferences held by Paul with Felix. It was due o the curlosity of a woman.

Josephus represents Felis rapaclous tyrant, seducer and an adul- terer.” -Paul knew that he had com mitted murder by causing the death of the high priest, who had dared to rebuke him. He knew also the fate of John the Baptist, who had dared to do what the apostle did that after- noon in an effort to win Felix and Drusilla for Christ and His church. Although there is no’ evidence that his words influenced the guilty Dru- illa when he portrayed her sins and danger, it is apparent that the barbed words of the fearless preacher had reached the better nature of Felix, who frembled when he faced the fact that he would have to give a record of his life at the judgment. 1e de- layed his dectsion of following Chriat to a more conyenient time that never came.

When Festus suggested that the trial be conducted before him in Jerusalem Paul surprised him by ap- pealing to Cacsar, who refused to allow the new ruler to give the apostle up 1o the Jerusalem authorities as a favor to them.
