Acts Chapter 17 Discussion Page 3

Question on Acts 17:3. Why does it say rise "again"? The KJV and NKJV are the only translations to say "again".

Was there a way the word "again" was used back then that allows it to fit in this sentence?

Thanks,. Mark

Way back then Jesus came to shack up the. Ruling jews back then just he is shacking. The world today telling his people to get ready. For the trumpet to call is people home before. The seven days of judgement

Acts 17:6 goes with Isaiah 29:15-16. Read and may the holy spirit guide you.

love reading

Acts 17 vs 24 to 31. So so powerful.

Acts 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at but now commandeth all men every where to repent: They had to change there ways of believing and turn to God's ways by the Word. Change of ways means repent.

"They received the word with all readiness of mind..." READINESS; Gk prothumia; a predisposition, i.e. alacrity (eager willingness or readiness, often manifested by quick, lively action; liveliness or briskness); forwardness of mind, readiness (of mind), ready (willing) mind. This goes with Isaiah 8:20; that, not speaking according to "THIS WORD" is because of no urgency, as if up early to a task.

"But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy, took unto them certain lewd fellows of the baser sort, and gathered a company, and set all the city on an uproar, and assaulted.." Doesn't this sound like a certain wicked spirit at work today? It is the heathen spirit of anti-Christ in all those who have set themselves to rebel against God, reject the Lord Jesus Christ, and instead worship Satan.

The Unites States of America of today sound like. Isreal of old days

Thank you Jesus for your words You alone are worthy to be praise we worship you Lord The only Jehova Jireh Shalom my Savior We've loved because you first loves us. Thanks to your blood Jesus by your blood we are pardoned Help us Jesus to be born again every moment of my life. Amen

Yes we do!

For in him we live and we move and have our being as certain also with your own poets have said for we are also his offspring. Thank you Jesus for your words everyday you are my life ny Jehova Jireh Shalom Praise you Jesus oh my soul thank you for your blood Jesus without you we are nothing without your blood shed for us we remain sinful but thank you for your RESURRECTION JESUS AMEN

It's so simple. Our Heavenly Father tells The house of Israel in Amos 5:4 "Seek me and live." Cannot get easier. Ma.6:33 Seek Him first... In ALL we do,it should revolve around Pour God. Our LORD. If so we live in him and He in us Amen.

It is very simple, Jesus called the Jews stiffed necked they were disobedient from day one. Paul is trying his best to teach them the real truth so they won't be lost again. The word of God said, God winked at ignorance. In our world today the same thing thing is happening, the world said show me then I will believe. God said believe and I will show you things you have never seen.

Yes,every Saturday. Could have been about 14 Days.

I have a question; v. 2 - Paul reasoned with the Jews 3 Sabbath days; how long a time was 3 Sabbath days? did they come every 7 days back then, like now? I'm just curious as to how long Paul was there.

The history of the Bible is, to me, like Eze. ch. 37; searching out the history makes it come alive for me.

Dionysius the Areopagite was a judge of the Areopagus (Mars Hill) from where Paul preached, vs. 22-34. I looked up 'Dionysius', 'Areopagite', 'Areopagus' to find all this out. I love the history of the Bible. To know the history, for me, draws the characters so much closer. They're not just 'dry dust' from the past.

God bless Ar (from comments pg. 1 on 12/21/14) if he's still with us ...........; what a beautiful testimony.

Yes we.do. Jesus is an awesome God
Amen!

I think that we have an awesome God.

We are Free' in Christ Jeasus' and that we can't do anything without being in the will of God. Jesus promised us that His works are done through us.

without Jesus we can do nothing

That verse makes me want to fall prone on my face before our Holy Creator. We are nothing without him and would be nothing without his grace.

All pictures are very nice.I should like to have more than picture and lesson.

It is a threat of judgement if one does not repent.

Thanks for the insight.....

To all who understand glory be to God lord have mercy for all have Sin 's let no human cast stones for Every person shall his day of judgement the way the truth an the Light come for us all in his time So let peace be still and have joy From oneanother

For those who can receive it, I see a much deeper meaning wrt bounds of habitation we now live as a people without borders . The reference is surely about our three spatial dimensions and time, from which we groan to escape, once we know Yeshua Messiah in His fullness. Be blessed!!!

More people couldnt accept God 's word they are simply not fixing their eyes to Jesus. That 's why Jesus using Paul to convey his message to the people to believe that Jesus is the Son of the Living God. Since people are practicing and believing the Idolatries showing their ignorance, They worship other God that made of woods which cannot speak. Jesus wants us to believe in him only and God is a jealous God and will vanish the works of the defeated enemy who dis obeyed his commandments. You need to invite the Holy Spirit Jesus to come into your life. He will help us to understand his words as his words is our heavenly manna that gives us life. His blood that shed for us is his love and mercy to all of us. Jesus loves you only believe in him
