Acts 17 Rules!

There is so much going on in that chapter that it blows my mind!

In Thessalonica you have people coming to Christ despite being hard-headed, their race, class, gender and you see that the Gospel threatens prevailing social structures of the day. Jesus vs. Caesar, why are all these rich people believing this crazy Jew Paul and so on.

In Berea you have people who are "more noble" since they "searched Scripture" (they were not Christian at the time) to see if Paul's claims were true. They come to Christ...social and political stuff is threatened again and so on.

I could go on, but I will not.
