Paul finally reaches Jerusalem with the offering for the poor, and what happens next shows humility in real life. He reports on his mission work by pointing to what God has done, not what he did. He accepts the elders' request to join four men in a Nazirite vow, setting aside his own preferences to protect the unity of the church. And when a mob driven by lies drags him from the temple and calls for his death, just as a crowd once called for Jesus' death, Paul doesn't fight or retaliate. Humility gives God the credit, bends for the sake of others, and trusts God's plan even when it is hard.
