Bible Study Snacks, Acts 14:21-28


Hi, everyone!

Happy Friday, and welcome back to another presentation of Bible Study Snacks! As always, I thank you so much for joining me as we walk together through the richness of God's spoken word, and wisdom. I pray that today finds you in good health and strong in faith!

This week, I would like to continue our study of the Book of Acts, with Chapter Fourteen, Verses 21-28.

I have designed these studies to be brief, yet packed full of good information for everyone regardless of your level of biblical knowledge. I might add that these quick studies make perfect small group discussion starters, as well!

As always, I whole-heartedly believe in the importance that any Bible study should begin with prayer. If you have your Bible ready, let's pray together...

Heavenly father, please guide us as we study your Word today; I pray that our hearts and our minds will be open so that we will not only receive your Gospel, but learn from it as well; you are the Light of the world, Lord, and your Spirit will illuminate our path as we journey through your teachings. In the name of Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior. Amen

If you are taking notes for yourself, or using this for a bible study with others, here are the objectives for this week's lesson...

OBJECTIVES: This week, the reader will...

1) Travel with Paul and Barnabas as they 
give special attention to their appointment of elders in every 
church. 

 

For your convenience, here is a summary Acts 14:21-28  

From Derbe, Paul and Barnabas retrace their steps, strengthen the disciples in Lystra, Iconium and Antioch (Pisidia) and appoint elders in every church with prayer and fasting. Passing through Pisidia they come to Pamphylia where they preach the gospel in Perga. From there they go down to Attalia and then sail to Antioch (Syria) from where they began their journey, where they report to the church all that God has done with them. There they stay for "a long time" (21-28).

REVIEW QUESTIONS:  

1) What happened in Derbe?  When they left, where did they go? (Acts 14:21)
2) What did they do as they made their way through such cities? (Acts 14:22-23)
3) Where they go after passing through Pisidia? What did they do there? (Acts 14:24-25)
4) From where did they then sail? (Acts 14:25-26)
5) What is significant about Antioch of Syria? (Acts 14:26)
6) What did Paul and Barnabas do upon their arrival? (Acts 14:27)
7) How long did Paul and Barnabas remain in Antioch of Syria? (Acts 14:28)

After completing this week's study, go back and read through the material again. Take your time and read each topic and scripture reference as many times as you feel necessary. Keep in mind that by doing this, you just might see something new that you overlooked the first time around!

As we journey through the Bible together, I will continue to pray that God’s message will come through to you loud and crystal clear. Until next time, I wish everyone a blessed week!

God bless you!
