Acts 17:1-15 - When the Word Divides


Listen Later

Main idea:  Division comes when God’s Word reveals Jesus as King and calls us to pledge our allegiance to Him alone.

1. The Word persuades us that Jesus is the Christ (1-4)

2. The Word provokes hostility and distortion (5-9)
3. The Word produces discernment and faith (10-15)

Discussion Questions:

1. Luke says Paul reasoned, explained, and proved from the Scriptures. What does this tell us about how God normally brings people to faith?
2. When you hear the word “allegiance,” what comes to mind? How is allegiance different from preference or opinion?
3. Why does Luke call the Bereans “noble”? What made their response different from the Thessalonians?
4. How does the Lord’s Supper function as a public declaration of allegiance to King Jesus?
