Paul Bids Farewell to Ephesus

From Miletus, Paul sent for the elders of the church in Ephesus. He reminded them how he had served the Lord with humility and tears, urged them to shepherd God's flock, reminded them to repent and trust in the Lord Jesus, and warned them to guard the church. At parting, everyone knelt to pray to God, said goodbye with tears, embraced Paul, walked him to the ship, and continued to love one another with hope in God's presence.
