What they needed to hear

 by David Long

"And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, which was a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ. And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come Felix trembled, and answered, Go thy way for this time; when I have a convenient season, I will call for thee" (Acts 24:24-25).

The apostle Paul preached to Felix and Drusilla what they needed to hear. What did they need to hear? Paul's sermon consisted of three points: righteousness. temperance (self-control) and judgment to come. It don't look like they changed their ways but they got what they needed to hear. People may not change their ways but we need to tell them what they need to hear.
