ACTS 17
Paul, Silas, Timothy, and Luke are continuing on the "second missionary journey." Especially notice the different reactions in Thessalonica, Berea, and Athens of the people in each town to Paul's message about Jesus.
- What people in Thessalonica did Paul speak to first, as he usually did? (17:1-2) What was his message about? (17:3) How did he prove it to them? (17:2) What was the result at first? (17:4) What was the result later, and why? (17:5-10)
- What two things made the Bereans more noble in character than the Thessalonians? (17:11) How is your character; are you also doing these two things?
- What was the result of Paul's preaching in Berea? (17:12-14) What do you think was his re-action to this? What would have been yours?
- Why was Paul distressed while in Athens? (17:16) What did he do about it? (17:17-31) What stands out to you about Paul's preaching at Athens? (17:18, 22-31) What was the result of it? (17:32-34) What has been the result of your witnessing efforts?
