When Priscilla and Aquila heard him preaching boldly in the synagogue, they took him aside and explained the way of God even more accurately.
Acts 18:26
But it was to us that God revealed these things by his Spirit. For His Spirit searches out everything and shows us God’s deep secrets.
1 Corinthians 2:10
He searches and shows us God’s deepest secrets. I want to be trusted with them.
He refuted the Jews with powerful arguments in public debate. Using the Scriptures, he explained to them that Jesus was the Messiah.
Acts 18:28
Be teachable:
- The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice.
Proverbs 12:15 (ESV) - If you ignore criticism, you will end in poverty and disgrace; if you accept correction, you will be honored.
Proverbs 13:18 - If you listen to constructive criticism, you will be at home among the wise.
Proverbs 15:31 - The ear that listens to life-giving reproof will dwell among the wise. Whoever ignores instruction despises himself, but he who listens to reproof gains intelligence.
Proverbs 15:31-32 (ESV)
A couple questions to think about:
- What if Apollos had not received the feedback from Aquila and Priscilla?
- How would I be more like Christ if I listened to feedback from the “Aquila and Priscillas” in my life?
Listen to the Aquila and Priscillas in my life.
