Ole was only about 32years a Chris-
tian. Ten of those years had passed
before he really found a place -in rhe
church (at .A'ntioch). He was in pri- more—and

m five son more_th-ave years I s
even when 'ant of 'prison he was per-
secuted by the, Jews, opposed by :the
Jvdaising Christians, and mocked by
the Gentiles. IIe was not more than
about 65 years old when the Romans
put him to death—and yet be had suic-
ceeded in steering this old world in -to
a new way of religious life, ,the 'Way
Of Christ.
.During those two years he weolte
four of the New Testament epistles.
The le'tter to the Colbossliates had to do
with a now peril in the chum-le—a
dangerous teaching which would un-
dermine •bhe power of the Gospel and
of the person of Christ. The old Jud
a'isers were not troubling the churches
since Paul was .in prislonwthother be-
cause Paul was out of the way, or be-
cause Jerusa'iem was hawing serious
troubles at home, Tam not sure.
IAlti through his 'pris'an experience in
Rome, Paul was expecting .to be re-
leased—but it took two whole years
for It to happen, aisd theft his freedom
was short' lived. •
We often wonder why the hook of
the Acts 'c'lose's so • abruptly, and
leaves the Story of .Paul un'finishe'd..
Was it because Luke intended writing
the story in three parts 01) the 'Gos-
pel, telling of _Tema, (9) the Acts,, tell-
ing of Peter and 'Paull; (13) some other
later story of the 'Church whielh was
never written? Cr. was it • because
Luke and Paul were writing it togeth-
er while Paul: was on his second tenni
of Rtaman imprisonment?—IA'nd just
at that p'oin't fn the story, Wes Paul ta-
ken out to his death? Cfr h'ad Luke
shown right along through bhe Story
that Rome was kind to the Christian,
and felt that he could not tell of this
changed attitude of Rome? Or, what
hap'p.ened Luke? '"Only ,Luke is with
me," Paul wrote just before he leas
put to death. Did ,Luke go to his
death with Paul? We can only -guess
elle answer, and there have been a
great many different guesses.
There are three letters of Paul—t(I.
and 11I. Timothy and Titus) -which
tell us a little about Paul after his f re-
lease lease ro t his first Ramanisou P rt
term. Two of these (I. Timothy and
Titus) were written while Paulwas
enjoying his liberty, and the other
(LI. Tiro -thy) was -written after he
had been arrested, and was expecting
his death any morn'ing.'
'Paul was out of prison himself but
realized that bhe dhutch was in very
great danger. He was like a busy bi-
shop 'trying to make up for lost time.
It appears that as soon as he was lib-
erated he sailed. straight to Spahr,
then returning East on his way to vis-
it Philippi, he,left Titus (Luke's bro-
ther) on the island of Crete and sailed
across to Miletus, where he left Troph-
imus who was sick. Here he met
'Timothy and sent him to Ep'hesns,
while he (Paul) pushed north to
Troas. AUt Troas he left his luiggage.
expecting to return shortly, and hur-
ried on to Philippi. 'He intended to
walk bhnough Macede.nia and spend
the winter att.Nicopobis.
(Somewhere in Macedonia he wrote
to his two friend's, Timothy and Titus.,
giving them instructiairs concerning
the organization of the church, "` and
setting down the gnallficati'ons for
Christian leadership in the organize-'
tion.
I't was during July of that simmer,
64 AID., that Rome was burned. Same
say that Nero deliberately set the fire'
so that he could build a better 'Rome,.
Some even say that he sat, playing his
!fiddle while the city burned. but this
is not ihi'stori'oally true. for Nero gave
his -glace for an em n

during the fire, and was most active
organizing flnst aid and rellief.
In spite ' 1
p of all Nero 'could do the ru-
mor persisted, and finally, to save
himself, Nero accused the Christians
of burn'in'g the city, and the Roman
persecution of {the ehurdh began.
The Jews enjoyed the protection of
Rome in ,their religious pra'ctises.The
iOhrieitians were •nlo't all Jews. The
Je'w's were never legally ,persecuted 'by
,Rom.e for their religion. For many
years, official Rome thought that. the
Christians were Jews, and for that
reason the 'Romans did not molest'
them. But wh•eti the Jews were cxpel.l-
