Julius IV

I owed you one said Marilius. When Julius and Marilius were teenagers Julius saved Marilius from a deadly snake bite. Later Marilius saved Julius from drowning. This Julius is the only Julius mentioned in the Bible. The Bible tells us that Julius becomes friends with Paul the apostle. When Paul is in the hands of Roman officials and appeals to Nero Caesar Julius now a Roman centurion has the responsibility of taking Paul on the perilous voyage to Rome. His association with Paul and what he learns about Jesus Christ make a profound difference in his life. You may have been wondering about Julius' background and his life beyond the account given in the Acts of the Apostles. The author gives you his conjectures about these matters.
