Acts 28: Paul in Rome

The Lord had been guiding Paul. In Acts 27, Paul said to the crew of the ship:

23 For this very night an angel of the God to whom I belong, whom I also serve, came to me, 24 saying, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar; and behold, God has graciously granted you all those who are sailing with you.’

Paul was confident that the Lord was with him, guiding his ways. After the shipwreck, Paul is in Malta Island. He miraculously saved from a snake bite. There, he made new friends such as Publius who had a sick father.
He finally arrives in Rome. He is welcomed by the church in Rome. He preaches to the Jews: some accept the gospel, other reject. Although Paul is a prisoner, he lived in a rented house, where he welcomed everyone who wanted to know more about Jesus.

That is the end of the book of Acts which is somehow strange given that Paul was executed by Caesar Nero. There is a theory that Luke wrote to Theophilos in order to defend Paul in his judgment. If so, the book of Acts must have been helpful in order to sustain that Paul was not guilty. Soon after he must have traveled to Spain (according to "The Muratorian Fragment"). He was killed by Nero around AD 64 and AD 67 in a persecution to Christians.

Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 11:1): "Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ." ; indeed, Paul is an example of to place the Lord Jesus in first place.
