LEGAL DEFENSE
Today's reading: Acts 22-24

"Brothers and esteemed fathers, Paul said, listen to me as I offer my defense." Acts 22:1 NLT

He offered his genealogical references.

He listed his educational accomplishments.

He provided factual information.

He spoke eloquently and had the attention of his audience in the palm of his hands.

But his defense was simply Jesus.

My defense is Jesus.

I'm able--because of Jesus.

I'm worthy--because of Jesus.

I'm equipped--because of Jesus.

I'm chosen--because of Jesus.

I'm washed white as snow--because of Jesus.

I'm an heir--because of Jesus.

Friend, can you use the same defense?
