Acts Chapter 18
Paul's second missionary journey is ending. He arrives in Corinth and meets Aquila and his wife Priscilla who become his fellow workers. After teaching in the synagogue, the Jews opposed him, so he goes out to the Gentiles. Priscilla and Aquila meet a Jew named Apollos whom they then taught him a more accurate picture of who Jesus was, and then he went on and helped all who believed in Jesus Christ and the salvation that comes from grace.


The death of Ananias and Sapphira is often misunderstood, being less about what was given and more about hypocrisy. How this was addressed is clearly the work of God. The Apostles continued proclaiming the truth, however the Jewish leadership reacted negativily to this. However, the results were not what the Jewish leadership expected. But a highly respected Pharisee advised them how they should address these new teachings.

Paul now presents his case before King Agrippa. But what he states has more to do with the gospel and its importance rather than his own case. He speaks of his conversion to Christianity, especially regarding the appearance of Jesus. After Paul is finished, Agrippa states he sees no crime regarding Paul, but because Paul appealed to Caesar, he could not free him, and therefore sent him to Rome.
