Acts 21

Paul goes back to Jerusalem even though he's told by many that it is very dangerous for him to do so. The Prophet Agabus, who previously predicted the famine, tells Paul he will be placed in chains. This chapter shows the difficulty the apostles have in getting Jewish converts to stop living the Law of Moses. Evidently 25,000 Jewish converts are still trying to live a combination of the Law of Moses and the gospel 25 years after the death of Christ. Paul goes to the temple but is immediately seized by the Jews and such a riot transpires that Roman soldiers are sent from the Antonio Fortress to stop it. They actually save Paul from being beaten more than what he was.

Paul is absolutely fearless in teaching the gospel. He knows what will probably happen to him, but still goes forward. In the end, no one knows who those people were who opposed him, but we know who Paul is over 2,000 years later. It's the same with the Savior. Those Pharisees, Sadducees, and priests who were worried about losing their high positions, are long forgotten. But the one who spoke the truth is still remembered and worshipped.
