    • Conviction

         After Paul discussed things with Felix, Felix came under conviction.

         “Conviction is a powerful thing.”  The Word can bring conviction.  12For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.[2] [NASB95]
