Paul Makes Disciples

 

Just  as Lystra marked a turning point in Paul’s ministry, Corinth marked a turning point as well. READ Acts 18: 1 – 11 and consider the events that happened there.

 

  1. With whom did Paul stay in Corinth and why? Do you think Paul was making disciples at this point? (Acts 18: 1 – 3)

 

 

 

  1. What role do you think Timothy and Silas played in Paul’s ministry?

(Acts 18: 5)

 

 

 

  1. In what ways was Paul’s ministry in Corinth just as it had always been? Who did he speak to first, where, and why? What change did he make when great opposition arose? (Acts 18: 4 – 8)

 

 

 

  1. What did God enable Paul to do in Corinth that had not been possible anywhere else? What insight does this give you into why making disciples as Jesus had done was not Paul’s emphasis prior to this time? (Acts 18: 9 – 11)

 

 

 

 

Aquila and Priscilla had a long-term relationship with Paul:  (Acts 18: 18 – 21)

 

  1. Do you think Aquila, and Priscilla were part of the reason Paul felt he could leave Ephesus even when the Jews asked him to stay longer? Why or why not?

 

 

 

  1. What indicates that Aquila and Priscilla continued to make disciples as Paul had apparently taught them?

READ: Acts 18: 24 – 28;   Romans 16: 3 = 5;   1 Corinthians 16: 19
