What Are You Afraid Of? Acts 18: 1-18
from bpchurch Sermons · host Pastor Bob Carlson
A common admonition from the Lord to His people is, "Do not be afraid." It suggests that we are at times afraid when we don't need to be. Even Paul at times was afraid or cautious, tempted to hold back. He even asked for prayer to have boldness to speak as he should speak (Eph 6:19-20). Do you need those same prayers at times? I do. When Paul comes to Corinth, as happened in other cities, soon there is opposition and reason to fear what might happen. But the Lord speaks to Paul, and through him to us. The Lord's word makes a difference and Paul continues there for 18 months! Jesus's promise to Paul is still true, for me and for you, so it will be our focus this Sunday.
