Attitudes in Acts Toward God’s Word

Elymas & Sergius Paulus Acts 13:4-12 Sergius Paulus (Proconsul in Cyprus, City of Salamis) An Intelligent man Interested in hearing the gospel Paul preached Saw Paul’s miracle – But more importantly ASTONISHED at the TEACHING, and believed! Elymas the Sorcerer He was WITH Sergius. (Advisor? Sorcerers were impressive cf. Simon in Acts 8) Enemy of all righteousness (sought to withstand the truth) Struck blind by Paul’s command

Noble Bereans Acts 17:10-12

Cornelius & His House Acts 10:24-33 Cornelius Called all of his relatives together, having been promised by God to hear the truth We are here to hear all things commanded you by God Responded in faith, and were baptized (47-48)

Eunuch from Ethiopia Acts 8:26-39 Eunuch Recognized the need for guidance (31) Willingly made the application to HIMSELF (36) Rejoiced at his response to truth (39)

Conclusion We must all open our hearts to accept the truth of God’s word, listen carefully, and make a personal application to what is heard. Do not withstand God’s word! Accept the Truth (Bereans) Listen carefully (Cornelius & Sergius) Make a personal application (Eunuch) Do not withstand (Elymas)
