    Paul was not intimidated with the intellect or the prominence of the Greek people. Paul knew what the Greek people thought of him, and it didn’t slow him down for a minute. Paul spoke with confidence in what he believed and lived by.

    We should not be surprised that the gospel is opposed. We’d like to think that everyone will just accept this wonderful news, but that is not the case. Let’s look at the faces of that opposition.

    Passage: Acts 17:1-33 Intro: One of the recurring themes of Acts is opposition. 1. mostly from the Jews, but others as well. 2. it was as well as recurring theme in the life of ministry of Christ. 3. we can draw this principle; that where the gospel goes, opposition will arise in one form or ...read more
