God's Appointment Fulfilled

Acts 20:17-21

From Miletus, Paul sent to Ephesus for the elders of the church. When they arrived, he said to them: 'You know how I lived the whole time I was with you, from the first day I came into the province of Asia. I served the Lord with great humility and with tears and in the midst of severe testing by the plots of my Jewish opponents. You know that I have not hesitated to preach anything that would be helpful to you but have taught you publicly and from house to house. I have declared to both Jews and Greeks that they must turn to God in repentance and have faith in our Lord Jesus. (NIVUK)

When the Lord Jesus commissioned Paul, he was sent to preach the gospel to the Gentiles, their kings, and the Jews; and to suffer (Acts 9:15-16). Coming towards the end of his third missionary journey, Paul had accomplished much of that – except directly witnessing to kings. That was to come after his arrest in Jerusalem. But this quayside meeting with the Ephesian elders marks the end of Paul's remarkable ministry of direct evangelism.
