Acts chapter 16, we explore Timothy's background in Derbe and Lystra as the son of a Jewess and a Greek father, his circumcision by Paul to reach the Jews without linking it to salvation, and the principle of sacrificing personal liberty for the gospel's sake as outlined in 1 Corinthians 9:19-23. The discussion covers Paul's journey through Phrygia and Galatia, being forbidden by the Holy Ghost to preach in Asia or Bithynia, and receiving a vision to go to Macedonia. In Philippi, it examines Lydia from Thyatira worshiping God and her household's baptism after hearing the gospel, the damsel possessed with a spirit of divination following Paul and Silas before her exorcism, their imprisonment and beating for disrupting profits, the earthquake opening the prison, the jailer's question of what he must do to be saved with the answer to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and their release after Paul asserts Roman citizenship.
