Only speach in Acts intended soley for a Christian audience.
Acts 20:22 - 38
Paul was remembering his time with them. He was not boasting, rather reminding them of the example he set and carrying on. Warnings of people who would distort the truth by teaching things that aren't the Gospel at all.
vs 22 - 24
A life in Christ is one that seeks to be led by the Spirit to follow God's will.
Sometimes God's leading happens that way. But it's not something Paul expects.
Romans 8:1 - 17
Galatians 5:16 - 26
We should be focused on being led out of the sinful life and into obedience to Him.
What does it look like?
A life in Christ is that seeks spiritual purpose above self preservation.
vs 24
The worth of life is not about 'success' or longevity, but whether we do the task Jesus has given us.
vs 24
The task of spreading the Gospel.
We can't allow COVID, nor any other difficulty, to stop our purpose.
How can we boldly testify to God's grace?
