Rock Skipping Contest With Knute S5e47 Acts8:1

Between the moment you DECIDE to have a ROCK throwing event, and you actually THROW a rock, some stuff has got to happen.  You have to FIND GOOD ROCKS.  You have to change locations and position.  You have to take off your JACKET.  You have to find somebody to take care of your jacket so it is not stolen or misplaced.  You may have to trash-talk a little.  THEN you throw a rock.

So, there is TIME. It doesn't happen instantly.  Well, SAUL is the guy who is recognized as the coat holder in todays story.  Perhaps there were too many to HOLD, so they had to lay them down at his feet.  I think it shows a characteristic of leadership and trustworthiness about Saul.

After Saul-Paul's conversion this event appropriately HAUNTED him.  At least, he remembers, recalls, retells and re-kindles the horror of killing and arresting the early Christians.  It changes everything for Paul.  He receives great grace regarding this event.  If HE can receive great grace for hunting Christians, I can too for whatever my sin is.  Decide. Receive. Believe. Be Baptized. Subscribe on apple podcasts.
