2. A Message without compromise

Acts 20:22-23 NKJV

22. And see, now I go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will happen to me there,

3. A Mission Compelled by the Spirit

Acts 20:24 NJKV

24. [a]But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my [b]race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

4. Testify of the Good News of Jesus Christ

Hebrews 12:2 NKJV

2. looking unto Jesus, the [a]author and [b]finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
