98 | Speak and Don't Keep Silent

In Acts 18, the Apostle Paul arrives in Corinth, a bustling city known for its commerce and immorality. Despite initial opposition and discouragement, Paul remains committed to preaching the Gospel. In a vision, the Lord encourages him, saying, "Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent; for I am with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you, for I have many people in this city." Empowered by this divine assurance, Paul stays in Corinth for a year and a half, teaching the Word of God and establishing a strong church amidst challenging circumstances. The sermon, "Speak and Don't Keep Silent," highlights the importance of perseverance and boldness in sharing the Gospel, even when faced with fear, rejection, or hostility. It emphasizes that God's presence and promise sustain us in our mission, reminding us that there are people ready to receive the message of Christ, even in the most unlikely places.
