And he took them the same hour of the night and washed their wounds; and he was baptized at once, he and all his family. Then he brought them up into his house and set food before them. And he rejoiced along with his entire household that he had believed in God.
“He set food before them.”Middle of the night, a Roman official brought despised Christians into his home, washed their wounds and fed them. This is transformation, on the spot transformation. Suddenly he was serving two men, who refused to honor Caesar, with love and kindness. Not only was this a complete change of character, it was probably dangerous that he, a Roman official, had ministered to Christians.
