Intro: Procrastination- thief of time! The sin of procrastination has damned many souls to hell.
I. The truth that convicted him, Acts 24:24-25.
A. Paul preached about righteousness - God’s standard, Romans 3:10-12.
Isaiah 64:6 , 2 Corinthians 5:21 and Romans 4:5.
B. Paul preached about self-control.
C. Paul preached about judgment to come, Acts 24:15. Eternal destruction- 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9.
II. The sin that held him. Felix procrastinates Acts 24:25.
A. The world that warred in him. Felix did the Jews a favor, Acts 24:7.
B. The flesh that worked in him. Felix hoped he would be offered money, Acts 24:26.
C. The devil that worked on him, Acts 24:25.
III. The procrastination that damned him.
A. Felix miscalculated that “a more convenient” time will come. Acts 24:27 .
Mark 8:36 and Proverbs 27:1.
B. Felix miscalculated that his conviction would continue, Genesis 6:3 and Hebrews 3:7-8.  They refused His evidence therefore God had hardened their heart, John 12:37-41.
 Personal:
1. We can’t work for righteousness - only by faith, Romans 4:5.
2. Conviction comes from the Spirit of God.
3. Now is the day of salvation, Acts 4:12 and Matthew 24:44.
