Acts 13:42-52 "The Response to Paul's Proclamation"
Marc Transparenti / General
Good Morning Calvary Chapel Lake City!
Please turn in your Bibles to Act 13.
• We have come as far as V41, and will pick up covering VSS 42-52 today... finishing out the chapter.
• Did you read ahead?
Both of you.
Good!
We are in the midst of what many call "Paul's First Missionary Journey."
• Last week we saw, Paul, Barnabas, and Saul sail from the Island of Cyprus to the mainland of Asia Minor, where John Mark departed them... causing some hard feelings between Paul and John Mark... at least for now.
• Paul and Barnabas alone then travelled North to Antioch in Pisidia.
• Where at Sabbath Synagogue Service... a door opened to address the people... both to Jews and God-fearers (Gentiles practicing Judaism).
And last week we read Paul's first and longest recorded sermon.
• Paul masterfully took his audience through Jewish history... highlighting God's faithfulness, especially that of a promised Messiah.
• Then, Paul proclaimed the name of their Messiah... Jesus, the name which is above every name.
• Paul explained that Jesus fulfilled the promise made to Israel of a Savior...
• And Paul demonstrated that Jesus fulfilled a number of OT Messianic scriptures in His life, trials, death, and resurrection.
• And, Paul shared with them really Good News... the best news... the Gospel News...V26 "to you the word of this salvation has been sent."
• And, in V38 "through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins; 39 and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses."
• Salvation... forgiveness of sins... justification by faith, not by works... all of this was really good news... and we'll see today that the Gentiles especially embrace this message.
• Paul closed his sermon with a warning... anyone who rejected this Gospel message would perish.
• Today, we pick up as Paul ends his sermon... we will observe the people who heard Paul's message were divided.
The title of our message is, "The Response to Paul's Proclamation"
Let's Pray!
Acts 13:42-43 "So when the Jews went out of the synagogue, the Gentiles begged that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath.
43 Now when the congregation had broken up, many of the Jews and devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God."
1.
When Paul began his message he addressed the crowd in V16 "Men of Israel, and you who fear God..." and then again in V26 "Men and brethren, sons of the family of Abraham, and those among you who fear God..."
a.
There were two groups represented in Paul's audience...
b.
Jews...the Men of Israel... the sons of the family of Abraham...
