wesleynt@Acts:20:17 @ And sending to Ephesus from Miletus, he called thither the elders of the church.
wesleynt@Acts:20:18 @ And when they were come to him, he said to them, Ye know in what manner I have conversed among you, all the time from the first day I came into Asia,
wesleynt@Acts:20:19 @ Serving the Lord with all humility, and with tears, and trials which befell me through the ambushes of the Jews:
wesleynt@Acts:20:20 @ And that I have with-held nothing which was profitable, but have preached to you, and taught you, publickly and from house to house:
wesleynt@Acts:20:21 @ Testifying both to Jews and Greeks repentance towards God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
wesleynt@Acts:20:22 @ And now behold, being bound by the Spirit, I go to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
wesleynt@Acts:20:23 @ Save that the Holy Ghost testifieth to me in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me.
wesleynt@Acts:20:24 @ But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life precious to myself, so I may finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
wesleynt@Acts:20:25 @ And now I know that ye all among whom I have conversed, proclaiming the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
wesleynt@Acts:20:26 @ Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men:
wesleynt@Acts:20:27 @ For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.
wesleynt@Acts:20:28 @ Take heed therefore to yourselves and to the whole flock, over which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
wesleynt@Acts:20:29 @ For I know this, that after my departure grievous wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
wesleynt@Acts:20:30 @ Yea, from among yourselves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
wesleynt@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore watch, remembering that for three years, I ceased not to warn every one, night and day, with tears.

wesleynt@Acts:20:33 @ I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel.
wesleynt@Acts:20:34 @ Yea, you yourselves know, that these hands have ministred to my necessities, and to them that were with me.
wesleynt@Acts:20:35 @ I have shewed you all things, that thus labouring ye ought to help the infirm, and to remember the word of the Lord Jesus, which he himself said, It is happier to give than to receive.
wesleynt@Acts:20:36 @ And having said these things, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all.
wesleynt@Acts:20:37 @ And they all wept sore, and falling on Paul's neck kissed him,
wesleynt@Acts:20:38 @ Sorrowing most for that word which he spake, that they should see his face no more. And they conducted him to the ship.
