Acts Chapter 27
In this chapter, Paul sails to Rome. On the way, a serious storm comes up and creates so many problems, they need to jettison the cargo that was being shipped. Ultimately, they end up leaving the ship and swimming or floating to the nearby island because the ship was wrecked of the coast. Eventually, all the people made it to shore, with no deaths.

Cornelius, a Roman Centurion, and follower of the Jewish faith, had a vision of an angel who told him to find Simon Peter and bring him back. Since Peter believed Gentiles were unclean, he should not go. He thought this was a test. But after a discussion with God, Peter realized neither people or food are inherently unclean, so he went to Cornelius and many gentiles were saved and baptized both in water and the Holy Spirit.

In the introduction, we discuss who wrote the Book and Acts? When was it written and for what reason? There is a very specific reason for it, and we will look closely into it. Then in Chapter 1, Jesus gathers the apostles are gathered together to meet with Him. Before He ascends, He commands them to stay in Jerusalem until they receive what was promised, that being the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. And since Judas was no longer with them, will they remain the eleven? We will look into all this in Chapter 1.
