Scripture Post #1,147: *40 DEVOTED ENEMIES*

 

Acts 23: 

12 And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul. 

13 And they were more than forty which had made this conspiracy.

The Apostle Paul's stance for CHRIST incited *40 DEVOTED ENEMIES* against him. This gives us encouragement—knowing that having enemies caused by standing for CHRIST is Biblical.
