Acts 24:14

Verse 14 of 27. The 24th of 28 chapters in Acts, in Acts.

10When the governor had beckoned to him to speak, Paul answered, “Because I know that you have been a judge of this nation for many years, I cheerfully make my defense,

11seeing that you can verify that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to worship at Jerusalem.

12In the temple they didn’t find me disputing with anyone or stirring up a crowd, either in the synagogues or in the city.

13Nor can they prove to you the things of which they now accuse me.

14But this I confess to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, so I serve the God of our fathers, believing all things which are according to the law, and which are written in the prophets;

15having hope toward God, which these also themselves look for, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.

16In this I also practice always having a conscience void of offense toward God and men.

17Now after some years, I came to bring gifts for the needy to my nation, and offerings;

18amid which certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, not with a mob, nor with turmoil.
