Key Verse<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

20. And<\/em> how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you<\/em>, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, 21. Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014Acts 20:20-21<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Verse Thought:<\/strong> Read today\u2019s Key Verses. Paul is the one speaking in these verses. He was telling the people that he had led by example \u2013 for in every aspect of his life, he served Jesus, ministering to others (i.e.: he preached Jesus so others could be saved; he went from house to house telling all of Jesus, Jew and Gentile; he encouraged other believers to live a Christ-like life). In this lesson, we will learn more of Paul\u2019s life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emphasis: <\/strong>We are faithfully to tell others about Jesus, understanding God will give us friends to help us. But more than that, we are especially to live a life that is pleasing to Jesus so that other Christians can be encouraged to live correctly by our example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lesson Summary: <\/strong>As we learned of Paul\u2019s second missionary journey in our last lesson, we found that when Paul obeyed God\u2019s direction for his life, God blessed his journey. Not only were many saved, but also Paul gained friends and fellow laborers to help spread the Gospel message. This week we begin with two of those friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul visited some of the newly established churches, and he left Aquila and Priscilla in Ephesus. While they were there, they heard a man named Apollos teach the repentance of John the Baptist. Aquila and Priscilla realized that Apollos had never heard of Jesus, the Promised One John came to reveal, so they told him about Jesus. Apollos believed, and became another helper who preached Jesus to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Paul went to Troas where he met up with some fellow laborers that he had sent ahead, he preached a sermon that lasted well into the night. Around midnight, Eutychus fell asleep in a third floor window and fell to his death. Paul raised him from the dead, they ate, and he continued talking until morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we continue reading about Paul\u2019s third missionary journey, we find that Luke, the writer of Acts (as well as the gospel of Luke) again joined with Paul and the other helpers. When they reached Miletus, Paul called for the elders of the church in Ephesus to come to him. Paul first warned them of grievous wolves that would come in to try to destroy the new church, and then encouraged these established Christians to help the weaker. Paul reminded them that he had taught them by example \u2013 for Paul had lived his life serving Jesus by teaching others about Jesus and ministering to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul met Agabus at Philip\u2019s house who foretold that Paul would be bound in Jerusalem. Nevertheless, Paul continued his journey to Jerusalem, where he gave a report of his missionary journey, and heard of the Jews saved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
