Acts 28

When Paul and the others make there way ashore the islanders welcome them.  Paul had gather wood for a fire and a viper slithered out from among the wood and took hold of his arm.  The islanders watch as Paul then simply shook of the snake into the fire.  They said among themselves that he must be a murderer and he has now had justice catch up to him.  They awaited the abrupt death of Paul, but it never came.  God had much yet for Paul to do.  After three months they could finally leave the island and make there way to Rome.  When in Rome he gathered together the Jewish leaders and expressed to them his case.  More importantly though he also went on to speak about Christ.  Some believe, but some continued to disregard his words.
