were responsible

You are here now.

And so I am.

169
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,433
Tell me some good news
that I might hold onto.

170
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,274
(LAUGHS) There is good news
in Crete and Ephesus.

171
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,679
Titus and Timothy have silenced
the false teachers

172
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,638
and straightened out the good doctrine.

173
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,995
And what is the news of this city?

174
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,836
Rome is stained with the blood
of our brothers and sisters.

175
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,913
Aquila and Priscilla are faced

176
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,471
with the difficult decision
whether to stay or to flee.

177
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,395
Paul, there is much for us to discuss,

178
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,517
but the Roman communities need...

179
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,476
They need wisdom at this very moment.

180
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,317
What wisdom can I give?

181
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,480
I have gone right,
Christ has sent me left.

182
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:34,920
I've gone left,

183
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,672
and Christ has pushed me right.

184
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,239
I have many regrets,

185
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,752
made many mistakes,
but everything I have done,

186
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,439
I have done for Christ.

187
00:14:58,320 --> 00:14:59,436
Go.

188
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,514
I'll be back soon.

It's welcome news.

193
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,760
I've been praying that this
solitude wouldn't crush him.

194
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,160
He is not crushed,

195
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,200
but he does struggle

196
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,031
that his work for Christ
has come to an end.

197
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:35,197
Paul is grateful that you have
risked your lives for this community.

198
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,437
Did he have any wisdom on the matter?

199
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,952
He is urging you
to discern for yourselves

200
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,474
where Christ is calling you.

201
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,040
No specific instructions?

202
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:46,755
No.

203
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,510
Only to offer an example
of his own life.

204
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,200
He's much better today.

207
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:06,874
It will help with the pain.

Octavia? What's happened?

212
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,591
I found her wandering
the streets like this.

difficult times.

You know you will die here in Rome.

Yet you are certain of the truth.

of where I go.

244
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,678
Yes, but I don't see the same
conviction in the others, Paul.

245
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,198
These men, these women, these children.

I cannot fix their faith.

247

There are men, women, children
now that have never met you,

that will never meet you,

254
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,313
so there must be a handwritten
account of these Acts.

255
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,555
It is for the same reason
that I undertook an account

256

of our Lord Jesus Christ for Theophilus.

So that he would know
the story of Christ,

and now the people must know your story.

No, it is your certainty
that opens the door to Christ.

I have never met Christ in the flesh,

but the day I heard you preach in Troas,
my God, I saw Christ in you.

I left my family and my friends,
my whole life behind.

boldly walk into a Roman prison.

331
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,360
Nero's madness.

332
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:01,316
It'll pass.

333
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,040
He can't be emperor forever.

334
00:23:04,120 --> 00:23:06,351
How many more people
will die before then?

335
00:23:09,120 --> 00:23:11,351
This decision weighs heavily on me.

336

I receive no wisdom in prayer.

337
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,677
In staying, we put the lives
of all our brothers and sisters

338
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,399
under this roof in danger.

339
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:24,554
And if we go,
how many people that rely on us

340
00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:27,591
do we condemn to a terrible fate?

341
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:31,680
Christ was clear when he said

342
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,911
he was sending us out
amongst the wolves.

343
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,710
He also told us
to be as wise as serpents.

344
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,152
And harmless as doves.

345
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,480
As Paul has said,

346
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,440
we must each make our own decision.

And yet she still finds room
in her heart

350
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,072
for all of those lost in Rome.

351
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,396
Something that doesn't come
as easily to me.

352
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,674
Aquila, I saw them burning
a body this morning.

353

He was a man I recognized from here.

Someone I helped.

355
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,309
I did nothing.

356
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,157
I feel no love for these Romans.

357

We were asked to build a community
in this city,

361
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,552

a clear answer for a way forward.

365
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,031
That this is something that

366
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,792
falls to each man and woman

367

or feel called to stay.

370
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,270
It's a risk for even one of us, Aquila,
to try and slip in and out of the gates.

How could we possibly all get out?

372

I have asked Eubulus to find us a way.

373
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,911
There's an old aqueduct
that lies beneath the new city.

374
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,798
It's been long buried and forgotten.

375
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,120
The entrance to these tunnels
lies beneath a property

376

owned by a trio
of wealthy Roman families.

And why would they help us?

378

Because they realize that Nero
was responsible for burning

half of their city to the ground.

Reminding me of this
terrible thorn in my flesh.

I'm haunted by myself as a child.

I wish to warn him
of the path he will take.

I have had a vision of them.

I see them

509
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,712
waiting

510
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:54,999

(SHIVERING)

00:36:35,240 --> 00:36:38,312
I was remembering
when Caelia was a little girl.

518
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,157
She used to sit at the window

519
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,637
and watch small sparrows

520
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,152
sing and fly around the garden.

521
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,230
She would have been there
all day if I'd let her.

522
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,831
Do you remember our place
before the fires?

523
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,437
The light through the windows...

524
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,557
Flowers, the trees in the garden.

525
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:07,512
I was a noble woman.

526
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,076
The wife of a Roman hero.

527
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:13,753
It is Nero's madness.

528
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,036
I do not blame Nero.

529
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,878
It is no help that you walk
around this place

530
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,156
as if the gods have already taken her.

531
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,278
Don't you think you anger them by acting
like they have no power to heal?

532
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:33,070
I have been sacrificing faithfully
every day!

533
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:36,990
My conscience is clean.

534
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,436
I do not think that I'm the one
the gods refuse to listen to.

more expensive than she needs to be.

You know as well as I it's a disgrace.

546
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,193
A black mark of dishonor
on my house and family.

547
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:43,793
Twenty years of service to Rome,

548
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,156
risking my life
to earn my citizenship,

549

idle servant's work

of everything Rome stands for.

These are the troubled times, my friend.

552
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,034
But that is why the gods keep
the day of our death a mystery,

553
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,316
so that we can enjoy this life.

I sacrifice to Bona Dea,
but she does not reply.

558
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,075
Then sacrifice to Carna or Meditrina,

559
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:15,879
and to Felicitas, Fortuna...

560

Juno, Libera, Sors, Spes, Trivia.

00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,875
What do you really know
about these Christians?

567
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,791
I rarely find them in the
establishments that I frequent.

568
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:41,678
But I do know
they have a strange affection

569
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,679
for poor widows and ugly orphans.

570
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,630
But if you want to know
what the gods think of them,

571
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:49,433
just take a look around.

572
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,479
You'll see they're not even fit
to light the streets of Rome.

573
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,914
There is a Greek who slips in and out,
transcribing letters of some sort.

574
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:00,752

in the darkness of that prison.

576
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,512
What if you were to seize these letters,

577
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,109
find something, anything,
that relates to the crimes

578
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,431
- he's been charged of?
- Nero does not need evidence.

Assassination is in the air.

580

Half the city believes Nero
started the fires himself.

581
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,636
But if you were to bring him something

582
00:40:17,720 --> 00:40:21,475
that shows that this Christian
did conspire and burn down Rome,

583
00:40:21,720 --> 00:40:25,873
you would be a hero in Nero's eyes,

if the emperor himself made
a sacrifice for her?

So we're like diseased dogs, then?

We do nothing to defend ourselves,

Be still.

628
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,473
None of us here have walked with Christ.

629
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,398
But Paul has followed him
longer than us all.

630
00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:19,520
I have watched him be beaten,

631

I have watched him
be stoned and flogged,

632

against his oppressors.

He was killed in the streets last night.

639

of young men that...

644
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:21,876
They want to retaliate.

645
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,429
They want revenge.

646
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:28,275
We cannot repay evil for evil.

647
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:34,840
Evil can only be overcome with good.

648
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:42,510
Well, considering
all they've been through,

649
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:46,117
can you really fault
their response, Paul?

650
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:49,832
What did you tell them?

651
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:52,796
Love is the only way.

652
00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,034
And after all you've seen,

653
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:00,795
you still don't believe it?

654
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,396
This isn't anything I've seen.

655
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,473
My God...

656
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,391
This is a world in the grip of evil.

657
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:14,318
This is Nero's circus.

658
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,511
It's passionate hate.

659
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:18,557
Blood washing down the street,

660
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:20,677
widows, orphans starving to death.

661
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:22,911
Babies born with the slightest defect

662
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,310
are disposed, dispatched, discarded.

663
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,869
This world

664
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,520
doesn't know a thing about love.

665
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:32,193
And so you would give up
on the world when Christ

666
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,192
- did not give up on us?
- Why not?

667
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:35,760
- No!
- Why not?

668
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:37,991
Love is the only way.

669
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,872
Love that suffers long.

670
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,237
Love that is kind,

671
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:51,559
that does not envy, that is not proud.

672
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,432
Love that does not dishonor,

673
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,679
that does not seek for itself.

674
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,478
Love that is not easily angered.

675
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:09,832
Love that rejoices in truth.

676
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:16,390
Love that never delights in evil.

677
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,315
Love that protects,

678
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,835
trusts, hopes,

679
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,640
endures all things.

680
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:35,590
That kind of love.

681
00:46:36,720 --> 00:46:38,712
Give me your hand.

682
00:46:48,720 --> 00:46:51,110
Do you understand?

683
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:56,916
Then write it down.

684
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:04,471
<i>I once wanted vengeance,</i>

685
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,394
<i>like Cassius and these young men.</i>

686
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,838
<i>I know this path of destruction
more than anyone.</i>

687
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:18,110
<i>I hated those that followed Christ.</i>

688
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:24,151
<i>I hunted them down like wild animals.</i>

689
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,711
<i>And when they fled Jerusalem,</i>

690
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:34,838
<i>I went to the temple
to the chief priests,</i>

691
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:38,675
<i>to obtain authority to go to Damascus</i>

692
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:42,518
<i>and arrest all those
that followed the Way.</i>

693
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:46,630
<i>I was determined
to be God's hand ofjustice.</i>

694
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,592
<i>His wrath.</i>

695
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:55,397
LUKE: You believed what you were doing

696
00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:57,631
was out of a love for God.

697
00:47:58,160 --> 00:47:59,719
PAUL: A blind love.

698
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:02,039
I only knew the law.

699
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:03,520
If water flows

700
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:05,512
down a mountain, what besides a miracle

701
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,432
could cause it to flow back?

702
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,278
The road to Damascus was

703
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,473
your miracle.

704
00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:14,952
PAUL: <i>Yes.</i>

705
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:17,874
<i>The road to Damascus.</i>

706
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:21,790
JESUS CHRIST: <i>Saul... Saul...</i>

707
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:26,113
<i>Why do you persecute me?</i>

708
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,636
SAUL: <i>Who are you, Lord?</i>

709
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,230
<i>Who are you, Lord?</i>

710
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:38,832
JESUS CHRIST: <i>I am Jesus,</i>

711
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:41,396
<i>whom you are persecuting.</i>

712
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:44,239
JUDAS: What's going on? What happened?

713
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:45,959
MAN 1: He can't see.

714
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:47,759
JUDAS: Here. Lay him here.

715
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:49,832
MAN 2: Something... Something
happened on the road.

716
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:51,274
Something like a light.

717
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:53,477
There was a voice, a voice like...

718
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,153
Like thunder.

719
00:48:55,240 --> 00:48:58,392
He fell to his knees,
as if he were struck down.

720
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:00,790
And he was shouting out the words...

721
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:02,792
"Who are you, Lord?"

722
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:06,191
MAN 1: All the way here
he has been saying aloud

723
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:09,114
that Jesus is the Messiah.

724
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:14,991
ANANIAS: Saul of Tarsus,

725
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:17,197
can you hear me?

726
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:22,834
Ananias?

727
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:28,632
You know who I am?

728
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:36,360
The Lord showed me a vision
that you would come to me.

729
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:41,672
They tell me

730
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:44,150
you have lost your mind,

731
00:49:44,240 --> 00:49:47,278
that you haven't eaten
or had anything to drink

732
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:48,760
in three days.

733
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:53,872
Your actions against
those that follow Christ

734
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:56,600
and all the harm you have done

735
00:49:58,280 --> 00:49:59,714
is well reported.

736
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:05,319
I know you have come here
on authority of the chief priests

737
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:09,394
to arrest all those
who call on the Lord's name.

738
00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:19,996
I am a wretched man.

739
00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:21,794
I deserve death.

740
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:28,834
Yes.

741
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:31,199
We all do.

742
00:50:34,240 --> 00:50:35,435
Yet,

743
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:39,639
Christ

744
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:42,318
has set us free.

745
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:49,239
Brother Saul,

746
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,032
the Lord Jesus,

747
00:50:53,240 --> 00:50:56,597
who appeared to you on the road
as you were coming here,

748
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:02,633
has sent me so that you may see again

749
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:05,158
and be filled

750
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:08,716
with the Holy Spirit.

751
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,314
Brother Saul,

752
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:16,830
receive thy sight.

753
00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:52,033
(WATER SPLASHING)

754
00:52:05,240 --> 00:52:06,913
LUKE: Everything in your life changed,

755
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:10,919
yet you continued on.

756
00:52:12,240 --> 00:52:14,277
Three years in Arabia.

757
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:18,114
Why?

758
00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:25,154
Peter and the others spent
three years with Christ.

759
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:27,918
I had to do the same.

760
00:52:29,720 --> 00:52:32,918
I had to learn how to pray,

761
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:34,719
how to speak.

762
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:39,399
How to love.

763
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:42,560
All right, old man.

764
00:52:44,240 --> 00:52:46,311
Tell me everything that followed.

765
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:54,598
BALBUS: Prisoner, on your feet.

766
00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:56,559
The Greek, too.

767
00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:02,670
Sir.

768
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:11,920
A chair, perhaps?

769
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:13,793
I will stand.

770
00:53:14,720 --> 00:53:17,189
I recognize the way you stand,

771
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:19,797
like a man who has been
flogged repeatedly.

772
00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:24,395
They say the spine bends
and does not heal properly.

773
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:27,476
Am I correct?

774
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:29,389
You are correct.

775
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,960
I am sure you are aware
of the responsibility I have

776
00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,919
for the detainment
of every prisoner in this place.

777
00:53:36,240 --> 00:53:41,872
I am well aware that to lose a prisoner
means death for you and your men.

778
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:43,710
Exactly.

779
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:47,354
Then you understand my current concern.

780
00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:50,797
Prefect, do you think
that we are plotting an escape?

781
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,231
Well, a man who has been charged
with burning down Rome

782
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,199
meets in secret with a Greek
for all hours of the night.

783
00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:00,958
Perhaps you're not only plotting
an escape,

784
00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:02,269
but an uprising.

785
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:04,872
- For what purpose?
- Vengeance.

786
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:11,031
Followers of your cult are being beaten,
raped and killed for sport.

787
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:15,239
It is for the Lord's sake
that we face death all day,

788
00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:19,831
that we are considered
as sheep to be slaughtered.

789
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,917
Even the sheep will revolt
if whipped hard enough.

790
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:30,958
Do you think that I have
come to Rome against my will?

791
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:35,753
That I am in this cell by accident?

792
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:40,551
I care very little
about the circumstances of your arrival.

793
00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:42,678
I am concerned with these documents

794
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,952
that are being generated
in the very heart of my prison.

795
00:54:48,240 --> 00:54:51,119
So, depending on my finding,
I will determine what should be done.

796
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:54,274
Consider the Greek a threat
to Rome until proven otherwise.

797
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:56,918
Put him in the dark with the preacher.

798
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:03,354
(BREATHING RASPILY)

799
00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:12,313
DOCTOR: She's not improving.

800
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:14,400
Whatever the cost, I'd pay for it.

801
00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:16,073
It's not an issue of cost.

802
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:17,992
It's an issue
of whatever this illness is.

803
00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:21,116
I have never seen
anything like this before.

804
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:23,280
Please.

805
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:49,599
- I understand your pain, Cassius.
- Understand?

806
00:55:49,720 --> 00:55:51,359
- Don't say you understand.
- But Christ spoke of love

807
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:52,840
- and peace and patience.
- You understand nothing.

808
00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:54,036
- You respond in the flesh.
- People are dying

809
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:55,560
every day because of us.

810
00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:57,233
I've lost my whole family!

811
00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,312
- Family? You speak of family?
- Yes. My family.

812
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:01,119
You listen to me!
I still have my family,

813
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:02,554
and I will not put their lives at risk

814
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:03,960
- for a foolish plan!
- You coward!

815
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:05,315
Just think of your family!

816
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,551
- No! No! No!
- What would you do, then?

817
00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:08,994
No! Keep your voice down!

818
00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:10,878
Luke has been thrown into prison.

819
00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:12,155
- What?
- On conspiracy.

820
00:56:12,240 --> 00:56:13,390
What did you say?

821
00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:16,075
Luke has been thrown into prison.

822
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:19,793
And I've gathered men willing to storm
that prison and free them.

823
00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:22,156
- To what end, Cassius?
- Justice.

824
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:23,475
Justice?

825
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:26,517
Think of how foolish
Nero will look having lost the man

826
00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:29,115
- he accused of burning down Rome.
- OCTAVIA: No.

827
00:56:29,520 --> 00:56:31,671
If you're caught,
they'll come here for us all.

828
00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:33,194
- Listen to me. Please.
- Exactly.

829
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:36,239
Listen to me! We can align ourselves

830
00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:40,234
with these powerful families
to overthrow Nero.

831
00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,280
And we can bring peace to Rome
if we rule it.

832
00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:46,876
Christ asked us to care
for the world, not rule it.

833
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:49,120
Listen closely.

834

All of you, listen to me closely.

835
00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:57,194
Some of you may want
to stay in the city...

836
00:56:57,360 --> 00:56:59,875
And some of you may want to leave.

837
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:02,557
But if any of you...

838
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:05,795
Any of you take up arms,

839
00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:08,111
you have no place in this community.

(CROWD MURMURING)

841
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:21,192
Cassius and the others
have finally calmed down.

842
00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:25,075
I can't stop thinking about Tarquin.

843
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:30,199
The poor boy.

844
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:33,478
We sent him out there, Aquila.

845
00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:38,077
I know. I blame myself.

846
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,231
I should have taken it.

847
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,557
We've lost so many, Priscilla.

848
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:47,439
I can't bear the thought
of losing any more.

849
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:51,358
I believe it's time to leave Rome
with the knowledge that we could be

850
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:54,035
better protected and serve elsewhere.

851
00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:59,000
I pray that God works good through it.

852
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:04,636
And I pray that you'll forgive me,

853
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:10,675
because I believe that God
is calling us to different paths.

854
00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:19,792
I know, I know...
I know you love this city, its people.

That's part of you. I understand.

I preferred the visits
to that charming rented villa

the last time
you were imprisoned in Rome

861
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:52,073
instead of this lovely hellhole.

Do you ever miss the road?

You must be kidding.

You know I had a great life
before I met you.

865

Your unwavering commitment

866
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:14,234
kept me going on many
of those cold, miserable nights

867
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,079

feet and back in terrible pain.

870

You used to sing those awful songs
in the middle of the night.

871
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,517
Excuse me, but they were
from my childhood,

872
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:34,920
and I told you time and again,

873
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,834
it's the only thing
that puts me to sleep.

874
00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:41,678
Your pitch sounded even higher
than Timothy's mother.

875
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:42,870
We never met.

876
00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:45,794
Was she that good of a singer as well?

the stoning of this fellow.

I have heard outrageous rumors
about this man.

896
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,599
A sorcerer of the dark arts,

897
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:09,237
a charmer of snakes and demons,

898
01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:12,836
a man capable of healing the crippled
with just a touch of his cloak.

899
01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:15,440
A healer?

900
01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:17,398
No, my point, you don't make
a man your leader

901
01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:19,392
just because he trips
and falls in the road

902
01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:22,473
and then travels around a bit and

903
01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:24,550
says a few things.

01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:27,109
There must be more to the story.

905
01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:33,673
You need to get him
to confess something.

906
01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:38,278
What else would he say that he
hasn't already spoken at his trial?

907
01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:41,910
A man on trial will say whatever
he can to save his hide.

908
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:45,676
But he has been convicted.
He will be executed.

909
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:48,116
No man wants to leave this life
without a legacy,

910
01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,318
without boasting
of his own glorious deeds

so the world can remember him forever.

about why the Christians look
to you as their leader

that we were not responsible
for the fires.

Why does Nero bring
this accusation upon you?

Rumors abound in the streets
about your powers.

Perhaps it is these supernatural things
that are seen as such a threat by Nero.

01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:11,040
I have no powers.

They are all true.

934
01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:19,599
So why do your people boast
about your powers?

935
01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:23,915
I've never said these things
in my life to boast.

936
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,117
I boast only of my weaknesses,

937
01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:30,599
so that God's power may rest on me.

I boast of it gladly,

941
01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:46,471
for this power is sown in weakness.

942
01:03:47,760 --> 01:03:49,752
I assume you have earned riches.

943
01:03:50,040 --> 01:03:51,190

944
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:53,238
Influence amongst your people.

945
01:03:54,800 --> 01:03:57,315
Maybe it is what has roused
Nero's jealousy.

946
01:03:58,600 --> 01:04:01,559
I've never taken a single coin
for my work for Christ.

947
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:03,115
Really?

948
01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:06,236
The good news of salvation is free.

949
01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:08,511
It was given to me freely,

950
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:11,389
and I give it away for free.

951
01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:13,873
So you have certain powers,

952
01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:16,839
but claim to have no authority
to use them.

953
01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:20,551
You've done miraculous things,
yet do not boast for glory.

954
01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:23,076
You make no wages for your work.

955
01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:27,120
You're sounding less like
a leader and more like a slave.

956
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,795
A slave that has been set free.

957
01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:32,111
We're Romans. We're already free men.

958
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:36,714
All men are a slave to something.

959
01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:46,360
That Greek,

960
01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:48,993
he is risking his life for you.

961
01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:51,115
Why?

962
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:56,279
He believes people should know
the certainties of my life.

963
01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:06,597
My daughter is sick.

964
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:12,474
If I pray to your Christ,
your God, will she be healed?

965
01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:15,433
I don't know.

966
01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:17,874
His ways are not my ways.

967
01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:20,350
So you offer nothing.

968
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:24,720
I offer the truth of salvation
that has been set on my heart.

969
01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:29,233
The Greek can take his papers.
I see no value in them.

970
01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:31,554
He'll be released tomorrow.

The Greek, Luke,

973
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:39,871
he is a great physician.

974
01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:42,593
His talents are unmatched.

975
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:48,559
No.

976
01:05:50,360 --> 01:05:53,398
I would not anger the gods
by bringing a Christian into my home.

977
01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:08,472
I said that you could help his daughter.

978
01:06:11,480 --> 01:06:14,598
How could I bring healing when he
and Rome bring so much suffering?

You know this man even better than I do.

980
01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:21,194
You

981
01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:24,069
used to pray to the gods of Greece,

982
01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:27,710
just as he does the gods of Rome.

983
01:06:28,520 --> 01:06:31,115
In your account of the Lord,
why did you write so often

984
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:33,157
of the poor

985
01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:36,673
and the outcasts and foreigners?

986
01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:46,075
I guess I wanted others to understand

987

God's kingdom is open to us all,

Do not worry, brother.

to do what is right.

and heal her.

1007
01:08:42,480 --> 01:08:43,960
You missed the doctor.

1008
01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:50,711
You have been telling me
to get out for fresh air,

1009

We should not speak here.

1013

Do you fear that which the gods
might hear you speak?

1014

And here you accuse me
of angering the gods,

but what of you?

1016
01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:20,074
There is gossip amongst
the wives of the guards

1017
01:09:20,200 --> 01:09:22,271
that you treat this man of Tarsus,

1018
01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:25,910
who spits in the face of Rome,
with a degree of sympathy.

1019

He's a Roman citizen.

1020
01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:32,034
If there is any degree of kindness,
it's because of that.

1021

What kindness
is harboring a Greek Christian

1022

against a direct order of your emperor?

1023

You should be tried
and executed for conspiracy.

And yet you think that I anger the gods!

the husbands of these gossips

were paid to look after him.

1027

Your daughter is dying,

1028
01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:57,319
and you dare dishonor the gods
by your actions?

1029

I have been loyal to you.

01:33:10,680 --> 01:33:12,194
Listen to this. "For two whole years,

1300
01:33:12,280 --> 01:33:15,512
"Paul stayed there in Rome
in his own rented villa."

1301
01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:17,512
No. "House."

1302
01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:20,116
"And welcomed all who came to see him.

1303
01:33:20,240 --> 01:33:21,799
"He proclaimed the kingdom of God

1304
01:33:21,880 --> 01:33:25,271
"and taught about our Lord
Jesus Christ with all boldness

1305
01:33:25,760 --> 01:33:27,558
"and without hindrance."

1306
01:33:27,640 --> 01:33:31,190
There. That should make you sound good.

1307
01:33:32,120 --> 01:33:33,918
What of my second arrest?

1308
01:33:35,160 --> 01:33:37,675
Of the trial at the Forum,
of Nero's verdict,

1309
01:33:37,760 --> 01:33:40,832
of the darkness of my cell?

1310
01:33:42,840 --> 01:33:44,832
I have begun my telling of these events

1311
01:33:44,920 --> 01:33:47,389
with Jesus' proclamation
to his followers

1312
01:33:48,280 --> 01:33:52,354
to bear witness for him in Jerusalem
and to the ends of the Earth.

1313
01:33:52,480 --> 01:33:55,678
And the story that began
in Jerusalem 30 years ago

1314
01:33:56,160 --> 01:33:58,152
has now come to Rome.

1315
01:34:01,880 --> 01:34:03,712
So, this is the end.

1316
01:34:10,440 --> 01:34:12,750
And yet death is only the beginning.

1317
01:34:13,600 --> 01:34:17,196
We will meet again on a new road.
Of that I am certain.

1318
01:34:19,120 --> 01:34:21,316
To live is Christ,

1319
01:34:23,080 --> 01:34:25,879
to die is gain.

1320
01:34:29,760 --> 01:34:31,672
I like that one.

1321
01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:35,599
Write it down.

1322
01:34:42,320 --> 01:34:43,720
PRISCILLA: We're doing well.

1323
01:34:44,040 --> 01:34:45,918
Over a hundred copies so far.

1324
01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:47,673
AQUILA: We will take these
with us out of Rome

1325
01:34:47,760 --> 01:34:49,877
and bring them to all the communities.

1326
01:34:50,240 --> 01:34:51,913
PRISCILLA: It will help many people.

1327
01:35:04,040 --> 01:35:06,032
Thank you. Thank you.

1328
01:35:09,160 --> 01:35:10,150
Luke.

1329
01:35:10,440 --> 01:35:11,794
What will you do?

1330
01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:13,439
I can't abandon Paul now.

1331
01:35:14,080 --> 01:35:15,116
Once we're gone,

1332
01:35:15,200 --> 01:35:17,510
I can't guarantee
your safe exit from Rome.

1333
01:35:17,600 --> 01:35:19,796
Aquila, you've already done
more than enough.

1334
01:35:20,560 --> 01:35:23,837
I feel that my finishing this work
is most important.

1335
01:35:24,520 --> 01:35:27,399
I guess there are some things
in life worth risking.

1336
01:35:29,960 --> 01:35:31,440
I shall miss you both.

1337
01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:36,269
Here. Paul has asked
that you would make sure

1338
01:35:36,360 --> 01:35:38,238
this letter reaches Timothy immediately.

1339
01:35:38,320 --> 01:35:40,118
Of course. Of course.

1340
01:35:40,200 --> 01:35:41,600
Do not be afraid.

1341
01:35:50,040 --> 01:35:53,351
PAUL: <i>"To Timothy, my dear son.</i>

1342
