In Acts 26, Paul stands before Agrippa and explains that his hope rests on the promises God made to Israel and fulfilled in Jesus Christ. The Jews rejected Paul because he proclaimed that Jesus was the promised Messiah, suffering Redeemer, eternal King, and risen Lord who fulfills the story of Scripture from Adam to the New Covenant. Paul’s witness demonstrates that biblical orthodoxy is not merely believing the right things, but believing the truth that gives us genuine hope to stand because God has and continues to prove Himself faithful to His promises.
