On the Road Again (3 of 22)
Series: UnStoppable - Acts
Tim Badal
Acts 14:1-28
We're continuing today in our series called ''Unstoppable,'' from the book of Acts. Last year we did the first 13 chapters of the book of Acts under the heading ''Unfinished.'' We're picking that series up as we look through chapters 13-28. These focus on the life, ministry and mission trips of the Apostle Paul, which we've placed under the heading ''Unstoppable.''
Today we're covering a large portion of Scripture-28 verses-in Acts 14. We'll see a redundant pattern in Paul's ministry. He and Barnabas go into a city, they preach the gospel to people, some believe and others don't. Those who don't get upset; those who do are on fire for the Lord. Sometimes Paul and Barnabas have to leave the city; sometimes they stay for a period of time.
Even though this is a pattern, Luke has written these things under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit for a purpose, so we need to draw out some conclusions from what at times seems to be a broken record. Let's read Acts 14:1-28:
Now at Iconium they entered together into the Jewish synagogue and spoke in such a way that a great number of both Jews and Greeks believed. 2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers. 3 So they remained for a long time, speaking boldly for the Lord, who bore witness to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands. 4 But the people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews and some with the apostles. 5 When an attempt was made by both Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, to mistreat them and to stone them, 6 they learned of it and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding country, 7 and there they continued to preach the gospel.
8 Now at Lystra there was a man sitting who could not use his feet. He was crippled from birth and had never walked. 9 He listened to Paul speaking. And Paul, look ...
