Acts 18:1-17 - Paul's Power Amid Opposition
Manage episode 420846667 series 3462551
Welcome to another captivating episode! As we journey through the book of Acts, we find ourselves accompanying Paul on his solo venture from Athens to Corinth, eagerly awaiting the reunion with Silas and Timothy. Upon his arrival, Paul seeks refuge with Aquila and Priscilla, fellow believers and tentmakers like himself, who've recently resettled from Rome due to Claudius' decree expelling Jews.
In true Pauline fashion, our intrepid apostle wastes no time in spreading the gospel, first in the synagogue, where he fervently persuades both Jews and Greeks of the truth of Jesus as the Messiah. However, when Silas and Timothy join him, Paul shifts his focus exclusively to preaching to the Jews, encountering unexpected opposition that shakes him to his core.
But why does Luke choose to spotlight Aquila, Priscilla, and the growing opposition Paul faces? The answer to this intriguing question awaits you in this episode.
Join us as we dive deep into Acts and unravel the significance of these encounters. I'm confident that as you listen, you'll discover profound insights that will enrich your understanding and faith journey. Let's embark on this exploration together!
