There are prisoners. Some are in jail, but others are out. There are guilty prisoners. There are prisoners at large. The prisons of some are made of iron and walls, the prisons of others are mental, habitual controlling their will. This morning we look more at the free prisoner in Christ and the prisoners of his sin who want to kill him. Paul has already been imprisoned for 2 years.
It is easy to feel sorry for Paul. "Poor man," we say, "What an injustice!" Yes, it is. Yes, it was. But this was God's plan for their lives. These men were free in Christ and used their freedom not to pity themselves but to share the gospel of Christ.
