Paul, Apostle of Christ Page #2

---

They need wisdom at this very moment.

What wisdom can I give?

I have gone right,

Christ has sent me left.

I've gone left,

and Christ has pushed me right.

I have many regrets,

made many mistakes,

but everything I have done,

I have done for Christ.

Go.

I'll be back soon.

He's physically shattered,

but the cantankerous old soul

remains full of hope and conviction.

It's welcome news.

I've been praying that this

solitude wouldn't crush him.

He is not crushed,

but he does struggle

that his work for Christ

has come to an end.

Paul is grateful that you have

risked your lives for this community.

Did he have any wisdom on the matter?

He is urging you

to discern for yourselves

where Christ is calling you.

No specific instructions?

No.

Only to offer an example

of his own life.

He's much better today.

He looks...

Here, drink this.

It will help with the pain.

Priscilla?

Priscilla!

Priscilla!

I'm here. I'm here.

Octavia? What's happened?

I found her wandering

the streets like this.

Sit.

Sit, sit, sit.

Where are you hurt?

Where?

Octavia, where are you hurt?

Where are you...

They've killed my husband.

And my little baby boy.

They broke down the doors!

We should have come here sooner.

You're bleeding. Where are you hurt?

It's not my blood.

It's my...

It's my baby's blood.

It's my baby's blood.

Take her inside, out of sight

of the others, please.

Come on. You're safe.

No, no.

Come. Come.

They were all

watching this poor woman

covered in the blood of her family

that had just been slaughtered.

Their faces were filled

with a great fear.

Christ has promised these

difficult times.

You know you will die here in Rome.

Yet you are certain of the truth.

I know the one in whom I believe.

And I am certain of the joy

of where I go.

Yes, but I don't see the same

conviction in the others, Paul.

These men, these women, these children.

I cannot fix their faith.

You can inspire their faith,

just as your...

Your letters always have.

You want me to write another letter?

It's time to get the blood flowing.

The Way is growing.

There are men, women, children

now that have never met you,

that will never meet you,

so there must be a handwritten

account of these Acts.

It is for the same reason

that I undertook an account

of our Lord Jesus Christ for Theophilus.

So that he would know

the story of Christ,

and now the people must know your story.

You risk people looking to me

before Christ.

Paul.

No, it is your certainty

that opens the door to Christ.

I have never met Christ in the flesh,

I left my family and my friends,
