Paul Reaches Ephesus
To Remember
Honest hearts will accept the truth, false hearts will not.
The work and teaching of the Lord produces praise and faith in
his people.
Lesson Acts 18:22-19:22
Acts 18:24-28 Apollos taught by Aquilla and Priscilla
What didn't Aquilla and Priscilla do?
They didn't humiliate Apollos in front of the crowd.
They didn't reject Apollos as an evil person and refuse to deal with
him.
What did Aquilla and Priscilla do?
They spoke to Apollos privately.
They taught Apollos, who had an open heart to the truth.
They worked together to teach Apollos more of the truth.
The entire congregation encouraged Apollos in his work and encouraged
other congregations to support him as well.
What were the consequences?
Apollos learned the full truth.
Apollos was able to use his talent and boldness to teach others the
truth.
What could've happened if Aquilla and Priscilla had acted
differently?
Had they rejected him, he wouldn't have learned the full truth and
would have taught others the same.
Had they treated him harshly, he might have never been able to teach
others the truth.
Acts 19:1-7 Paul met disciples who had not been baptized in the name
of Christ, and knew nothing about the Holy Spirit. He baptized them into Christ and laid
their hands upon them.
Acts 19:8-10 Paul taught for two years at Tyrannus' auditorium
"so that all the residents of Asia, both Jews and Geeks, heard the word of the
Lord."
Acts 19:11-12 Paul's miracles healed many.
Acts 19:13-17 The seven sons of Sceva tried to rid a man of an evil
spirit "by the Jesus that Paul preaches". The spirit said "Paul I know and
Jesus I know but who are you?"
Acts 19:17-20 Magicians who were converted destroyed their valuable
but evil books, rather than sell them, because they refused to profit from that which was
wrong.
The results of each of these occurrences was awe and
righteousness within men and praise and strength to the name of the Lord. The miracles and
the response of the people proved to others that the Lord's word was true and awesome.
