Acts Chapter 28

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.

Some Jews began teaching that Gentiles could not be saved unless they were circumcised. Paul and Barnabas challenged them, and ultimately this dispute
was brought before the Church in Jerusalem where the decision was made stating circumcision was not required due to references in the Old Testament, which
presentated by James. Paul, who was in Antioch, spoke with Barnabas regarding meeting with the bretheren in all the cities the ministered in, to see how
they were doing. Barnabas wanted to take John Mark with them, but Paul said no, so Mark went with Barnabas and Silas went with Paul.

Peter and John were arrested and put into prison by the Priests and Sadducees, along with the temple guard for teaching against their Jewish beliefs. Who were these priests and Sadducees, what did they believe, and what was the Sanhedrin? What happened to Peter and John as an outcome of this arrest? The results are not what they expected, and we will look, in this chapter, what the outcome was to both the Jews and the apostles.
