Unsung Heroes: Aquila and Priscilla

Introduction  Aquila (eagle), derived from the Greek Akulas, a name of Latin origin, occurs 6x in the NT (Acts 18:2, 18, 26; Rom. 16:3; 1 Cor. 16:19; 2 Tim. 4:19).  The name Priscilla (old, venerable), derived from the Greek Priska, also of Latin origin, appears 6x in the NT, thrice rendered Priscilla (Acts 18:2, 18, 26) and thrice in the diminutive form of Prisca (Rom. 16:3; 1 Cor. 16:19; 2 Tim. 4:19).

Pilgrims and Sojourners  Their Sojourn at Corinth  Their Sojourn at Ephesus  Their Sojourn at Rome  Their Latter Sojourns

Their Example  They were optimistic  They were flexible  They were spiritual  They were tactful  They were helpful  They were humble

Our Challenge  Our challenge is to manifest similar grace in the face of life’s uncertainties.  Whether we live our lives in one location, or frequently move from place to place, we should view ourselves as sojourners, strangers in a land that is not our own, pilgrims who are journeying to a distant home (Heb. 11:8-16).
