Read the passage here
- Paul argued with those in the synagogue – obviously there is a case for debating – interesting that the context was with other religious leaders though
- i wonder who these ‘leading women’ were who joined Paul
- mob formed against Paul and Silas for ‘acting contrary to the decrees of the emperor, saying that there is another king named Jesus – why can’t we say this today? and if we do, why does no one seem to care?
- In Beroea – new believers – ‘examined the scriptures everyday’ – if newbies do it – shouldn’t we all?
- Paul spoke in a way that caused mystery, confusion, yet those who were intrigued and wanted to know more. How can we learn from this?
- Paul took the time to examine the idols and gods in the city – if we took the time to examine our culture, what would we find? in our culture, and within ourselves?
