So on top of taking a bunch of college credits, working a full time job, running a children's theater and being married, I started watching the TV series Lost with Alicia.
Bad idea.
If you haven't seen it, this is a big spoiler alert. You're gonna want to just skip this part. On the other hand if your part of the 12 million people (on average) that have been watching since the beginning, this is kinda old news.
In the 3rd season, a character is given a prophecy that he is going to die. But his death will save people; people he loves. So openly walks into his death with boldness. In a lot of ways, that's what the last few chapters of Acts feels like. It seems as if Paul is knowingly walking into his death. A number of people plead with him not to go to Jerusalem. A prophet even tells him that he's going to be bound...and yet he still goes.
I question this model. Is it smart? I'm not sure, it definitely doesn't make sense. But it seems to be the will of God. I just wonder if instead of Paul spending all those years in jail, he could have planted more churches. I know, this was God's plan not mine. I just wonder.
