on all of Paul's Missionary Journeys that Paul felt that they had gone well and that on the whole the Gospel was
being well received "him liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself" that Paul had made a lot of friends on his
Missionary Trips and was refreshed by the fellowship he had with the Gentile Christians. 2. Also noting that "the
[spiritual] winds were contrary" seeming to imply that there was a great deal of spiritual (demonic) opposition to the
Gospel Message going forward.} -- 2. The Common Christian Church Age (Acts 27:6-44): "Acts 27:6 And there the
centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us therein." {Note: The ship of the Apostolic Age
has ended and the ship of the Common Christian Church Age has launched - carrying the nourishing wheat (Bible)
and the four anchors (4 Gospels). The [Christian] ship spends a great deal of time in the port of "Fair Havens" and
then departs into adversity to the extent that the storms of life strand and tear the ship apart. Noteworthy, the Church
[ship] has the four anchors [4 Gospels] and correctly uses them to stabilize the ship in dangerous waters however
also note how the cargo of wheat [Bible] is considered too big of a burden and is cast overboard (Acts 27:38) away
from the Church. -- 3. The Martyred Saints of Revelation Tribulation (Acts 28:1-15): After the Christian Church
Age has come to an end the Revelation Tribulation Age begins. {Note: The Saints of Revelation are washed ashore
into a strange society and economy where they are refuges; destitute and in peril. Though working hard and trying
to get along they are Bitten by the Beast and transported to fellowship with their fellow Martyrs. -- 4. The 1,000
year Millennial Kingdom Reign of Jesus Christ on earth (Acts 27:16-31): Having finally arrived in Rome the
Throne of the King the Millennial Rein of Jesus Christ is now being depicted. {Note: As a type of a citizen of the
Millennial Reign of Jesus Christ, Paul is sent not to jail but to his own house to live [for two years]. Once in his
Millennial House the Apostle Paul immediately begins to fellowship with the Jews of the Millennial Age.} -- Paul's
Journey to Rome and the book of Acts concludes "Acts 28:30-31 And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired
house, and received all that came in unto him, **Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which
concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him."

Introduction: Paul's Journey to Rome - Church History Outline: Ceasrea
to Malta - End Times (Antichrist) Outline: Malta to Rome
The Apostle Paul's "Journey to Rome" covered in Acts chapters 27 and 28 is a unique set of passages of scripture
and seems to tell a parallel story to the main story of Paul's journey and shipwreck while in route to Rome. The first
part of Paul's journey from Caesarea, Israel to the shipwreck off of the shores of the island of Malta seems to tell
the parallel story of what has been much of Church history up until today. The second main segment of Paul's
journey beginning with Malta then the departure and the sailing to Italy, seems to tell the parallel story of the End
Times, the Antichrist and the Book of Revelation. - In looking at these events one primary set of verses in each
segment is going to be crucial to the study. In the first portion the Church History outline the verses Acts 27:41 and
Acts 27:44 [the actual shipwreck and making it to shore] are going to be the crucial verses for the first segment. -
The second segment the End Times outline the island of Malta to Rome the main verses are going to be Acts 28:13-
15, Paul's arrival in Italy but at first not in Rome.
