ACTS 24:10-27
24:10 Then Paul, after that the governor had beckoned unto him to speak, 
answered, Forasmuch as I know that thou hast been of many years a judge unto 
this nation, I do the more cheerfully answer for myself:
24:11 Because that thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days 
since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship.
24:12 And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, neither 
raising up the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:
24:13 Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me.
24:14 But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, 
so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in 
the law and in the prophets:
24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there 
shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
24:16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void to 
offence toward God, and toward men.
24:17 Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings.
24:18 Whereupon certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, neither 
with multitude, nor with tumult.
24:19 Who ought to have been here before thee, and object, if they had ought 
against me.
24:20 Or else let these same here say, if they have found any evil doing in me, 
while I stood before the council,
24:21 Except it be for this one voice, that I cried standing among them, 
Touching the resurrection of the dead I am called in question by you this day.
24:22 And when Felix heard these things, having more perfect knowledge of that 
way, he deferred them, and said, When Lysias the chief captain shall come down, 
I will know the uttermost of your matter.
24:23 And he commanded a centurion to keep Paul, and to let him have liberty, 
and that he should forbid none of his acquaintance to minister or come unto him.
24:24 And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, which was 
a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.
24:25 And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come, 
Felix trembled, and answered, Go thy way for this time; when I have a 
convenient season, I will call for thee.
24:26 He hoped also that money should have been given him of Paul, that he 
might loose him: wherefore he sent for him the oftener, and communed with him.
24:27 But after two years Porcius Festus came into Felix' room: and Felix, 
willing to shew the Jews a pleasure, left Paul bound.
