DAY 19
AC-17:26 And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to
dwell
on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times
before
appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;
AC-17:27 That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might
feel
after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of
us:
AC-17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as
certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his
offspring.
AC-17:29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought
not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or
stone, graven by art and man's device.
AC-17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now
commandeth all men every where to repent:
AC-17:31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will
judge the world in righteousness by [that] man whom he hath
ordained; [whereof] he hath given assurance unto all [men], in
that
he hath raised him from the dead.
AC-17:32 And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead,
some
mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this
[matter].
AC-17:33 So Paul departed from among them.
AC-17:34 Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among
the which [was] Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named
Damaris,
and others with them.
*AC-18:1 After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came
to
Corinth;
AC-18:2 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.
AC-18:3 And because he was of the same craft, he abode with
them,
and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.
AC-18:4 And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and
persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.
AC-18:5 And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia,
Paul
was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews [that] Jesus
[was] Christ.
AC-18:6 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.
AC-18:7 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.
AC-18:8 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.
AC-18:9 Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be
not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:
AC-18:10 For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to
hurt
thee: for I have much people in this city.
AC-18:11 And he continued [there] a year and six months,
teaching
the word of God among them.
AC-18:12 And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made
insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the
judgment seat,
AC-18:13 Saying, This [fellow] persuadeth men to worship God
contrary to the law.
AC-18:14 And when Paul was now about to open [his] mouth, Gallio
said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked
lewdness,
O [ye] Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:
AC-18:15 But if it be a question of words and names, and [of]
your
law, look ye [to it]; for I will be no judge of such [matters].
AC-18:16 And he drave them from the judgment seat.
AC-18:17 Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of
the
synagogue, and beat [him] before the judgment seat. And Gallio
cared
for none of those things.
AC-18:18 And Paul [after this] tarried [there] yet a good while,
and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into
Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn [his]
head in
Cenchrea: for he had a vow.
AC-18:19 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he
himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.
AC-18:20 When they desired [him] to tarry longer time with them,
he
consented not;
AC-18:21 But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means
keep
this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto
you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.
AC-18:22 And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and
saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.
AC-18:23 And after he had spent some time [there], he departed,
and
went over [all] the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order,
strengthening all the disciples.
AC-18:24 And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an
eloquent man, [and] mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.
AC-18:25 This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and
being
fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things
of
the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.
