Ready to die for the Lord - Acts 21:1-25

Are you ready to die for the Lord? This question is one everyone hates to answer because it is hypothetical. I would venture to say that most of us here would say “yes” without thinking it through like Peter did when our Lord told they would all run away when he was arrested.   This may even be in some way easier than asking “Are you ready to live for the Lord?” Why? Because we dying could be fast but living takes up commitment. Regardless of these questions, we find that the Apostle Paul in this book addressed these in his life. In Philippians we find Paul is in jail (which this text explains how it all begins) and he writes to the church there explaining his dilemma.   Philippians 1:19-26. He wants to live for Christ for the benefit of the church (putting other’s needs first before ours is what Thom Rainer says is how unity is demonstrated in his book “I Will”). He would rather be with Christ “for that is far better”. He is hard pressed to answer either way. The good thing is that the Lord has control of his life.   Let’s look how it all starts.
