Safe to Land
Biblical Museum
Acts 27:44
And the rest, some on boards, and some on broken pieces of the ship. And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to land.


They were all saved notwithstanding —

I. THEIR FEARS TO THE CONTRARY. You have feared —

1. The power of the Evil One.

2. The subtlety of your own heart.

3. The world.

4. Providence.

II. THE PLAY OF THE ELEMENTS.

1. The soft south wind of flattery.

2. The contrary wind of the world's opposition.

3. The fierce Euroclydon of adversity.

III. THE POOR HELPS THEY HAD. Every one had to shift for himself.

IV. THEIR GREAT VARIETY OF CHARACTER. Soldiers, sailors, landsmen.
