Malta

Apostle, Malta, Paul, People in the Bible 1 Minute

Malta is mentioned in the Bible in Acts 28:1-10 when Paul and his companions were shipwrecked on the island while traveling to Rome. Despite their ordeal, the inhabitants of Malta showed them great kindness, warming them by a fire and providing for their needs. The Bible recounts how Paul healed Publius’s sick father and then went on to heal many others on the island as well. This display of miraculous healing resulted in the people of Malta viewing Paul and his companions with great respect. This story not only showcases Paul’s unwavering faith and resilience in the face of adversity but also highlights the hospitable nature of the Maltese people, leaving a lasting impact on both parties involved.

My name is Steve until the Lord takes me home and gives me a new name. I am a believer in, and a lover of, Jesus Christ. Although I am human and I fail Him every day, I believe that Jesus is the Son of God; He was born of a virgin, was crucified on a cross, died for our sins, and rose again on the third day to give us salvation! He loves me dearly (far more than I deserve) and forgives my sins. His Word (The Holy Bible) says if we deny Him before men He will deny us before His Father in Heaven.
