2 nd Missionary Journey

Listen while we read: Why do they leave? Where do they go? Where do they preach? What do they preach? What is the response?

Christianity Invades Europe! Acts 17:1- 18:22

Review 15:36-16:40 New missionaries Galatian churches strengthened Closed doors Troas: Macedonian Call & Luke Church plant in Philippi Persecution leads to leaving

Thessalonica 17:1-9 Paul’s normal strategy 2 Paul’s message 2-3 – Scriptures->Christ->salvation by faith The results – Positive: People believe 4 – Negative: Persecution comes 5-9 – 1 & 2 Thessalonians written later!

Berea 17:10-15 Paul’s normal strategy 10 The Berean’s noble character 11 The results: – Positive: People believe 12 – Negative: Persecution 13-15

Athens 17:16-34 Paul’s different strategy Paul’s message – Creation->Sovereignty->Reason ->Judgment->Christ->salvation faith The results – Believers but no church, Paul leaves

Corinth 18:1-17 Paul’s different strategy 1-5 The results: – Jewish persecution 6, 9-18 – Believers & a church planted 7-8 – A word from Jesus! 9-10 – A long stay in Corinth 11,18 – 1 & 2 Thessalonians written!

Homebound 18:18-22 Paul’s voyage – New Coworkers & vow! 18 – Short stop in Ephesus Paul’s report 22 – Church in Jerusalem – Church in Antioch

Life Lessons 1.Be a Berean when listening to any preacher! 2.Start where people are when sharing your faith! 3.Christianity is relevant and still invading the unbelieving world!
