Acts 15:36 - 16:24

ActsSteve Gregg
In Acts 15:36 - 16:24, Steve Gregg explains how God guides individuals in different ways, including through dreams, scriptures, prophecies, and the Holy Spirit. Using examples from the Bible, Steve highlights how Paul received guidance through a dream to go to Macedonia, where he established the first church in Philippi. Despite facing persecution and prison time, Paul's faith led to the conversion and baptism of the jailer and his household. Steve also discusses the significance of the Jerusalem Council's decree that Gentiles do not need to follow Jewish laws and legal requirements, and the role of Roman citizenship in Paul and Silas' travels.
