Acts 26:24-32 - Not Quite Persuaded
24 And he making his defence to these things, Festus says with a loud voice, O Paul, thou art beside thyself; many writings turned thee into insanity.
25 But Paul says, I am not a maniac, most noble Festus; but I speak forth the words of truth and soberness. 26 For the king, to whom I also speak boldly, knows concerning these things: for I am persuaded that nothing of these things is hidden; for this has not been done in a corner. 27 O king Agrippa, dost thou believe the prophets? I know that thou believest them.
28 And Agrippa said to Paul, With little persuasion thou dost persuade thyself to make me a Christian.
29 And Paul said, I would to God, that both in little and in much, not only you, but also all of those hearing me this day, were such as I am, except these bonds.
30 And the king, and the governor, and Bernice, and those sitting with them, arose up: 31 and having gone away, they were talking to one another, saying, that This man is doing nothing worthy of death or of bonds.
32 But Agrippa said to Festus, This man was able to have been released, if he had not appealed to Caesar.
