And they supposed.
Acts 21:27-36, For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, and they supposed that Paul had brought him into the temple.
How often do we “suppose” that we know what happened, when in fact we are more ready to believe evil about someone else. If we were the accused, we would certainly seek the benefit of the doubt and hope for mercy. And so Paul stands falsely accused, as did Jesus. The servant is not above the master, and we should not be surprised if we should be in the same position. How would I react?
Give us Your perspective on everything, even false accusations; we thank You that even in this Your name will be glorified!
