The closing of Acts 28 marks a significant moment in the history of the early church, reflecting the ongoing ministry of the Gospel and its connection to church planting.

Praise The Lord, God is Not Fair
Moses’ sin of striking the rock instead of speaking to it, as commanded by God, is recorded in Numbers 20:7-12. The Israelites were in the wilderness, facing severe thirst, and they complained bitterly. God instructed Moses to speak to the rock at Meribah, promising it would yield water. However, in frustration, Moses struck the rock twice with his staff, saying, “Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock?” (Numbers 20:10, KJV). Though water did flow, God rebuked Moses and Aaron for their lack of faith and failure to sanctify Him before the people.
