Two Texts Revelation and Resistance | Disruptive Presence 123
In which John and David explore Acts 22, where Paul recounts his dramatic encounter with Jesus to a hostile crowd. Reflecting on Paul’s confidence in simply presenting his story, we discuss the power of testimony and revelation over explanation. We note how Paul’s speech draws connections to Isaiah’s temple vision and John’s gospel, emphasising Jesus as the ultimate truth. Paul’s mention of Stephen highlights a thread of God’s work across time, as personal and communal transformation unfold within this chapter.
