Dear
Despiser,
(Acts
13:14-41).
Sincerely,
Paul |
Acts 13:41 -
Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your
days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it
unto you.
Read what Paul says in the synagogue on the sabbath day in Antioch in
Acts 13:14-41; Read Acts
13:42-52 for the follow up to Paul's message - the same follow-up
we receive today when telling folks about Paul's teachings.
He is talking to the "John crowd" and how that is past and what he has
to say to them now. The Gentiles catch on but the Jews, the devout
and honourable women and the chief men of the city just don't get.
We are done with what John (The Gospels) have to say - now listen to Paul.
They despised then and they despise today:
-
the riches of God's goodness - Romans 2:4
-
Paul and his 'followers' - I Corinthians
4:10
-
God, not man, even though they blame the preacher... -
I Thessalonians 4:8
-
Prophesyings - preachings - teachings of the Scriptures rightly divided...
- I Thessalonians 5:20
-
Someone's youth who understands what Paul has to say! - I
Timothy 4:2
-
Those that are good, of course based on Paul's teachings from the Risen
Saviour - II Timothy 3:3
-
Sound doctrine from the preacher as preached from
Titus 2 - Titus 2:15
P.S. - Read Acts 13:42-52
for the follow-up to Paul's message - the same follow-up we receive today
when telling folks about Paul's teachings.

The
entire King James Bible is written FOR us, but it is not all written TO
us!
We
learn from the "For" and we learn to apply the 'TO!"
These
writings of Paul are directly from the Risen Saviour to Paul...
...and
then to us through the King James Bible by the Holy Ghost!
