Bible Story: Acts 18:1-11,
Paul - Powered Up with Christ.
Acts 18:1-11 (1) After these
things Paul departed from Athens and came to Corinth; (2) And found
a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy,
with his wife Priscilla; because that (Claudius had commanded all
Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them. (3) And because he
was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their
occupation they were tentmakers. (4) And he reasoned in the
synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks. (5)
And when Silas and Timothy were come from Macedonia, Paul was
pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was
Christ. (6) And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he
shook his raiment, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own
heads; I am clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles. (7)
And he departed thence, and entered into a certain man's house,
named Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to
the synagogue. (8) And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue,
believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians
hearing believed, and were baptized. (9) Then spake the Lord to Paul
in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy
peace: (10) For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt
thee: for I have much people in this city. (11) And he continued
there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
