ACTS 24:25 — KING JAMES VERSION 1 0
“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.”
And as he was discussing righteousness, self-control and the judgment to come, Paul's address (dialegomai) becomes an evangelical appeal: righteousness (dikaiosyne) is God's standard; self-control (enkrateia) is human responsibility; coming judgment is the consequence. The topics touch Felix's conscience and moral accountability.
