SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
I
"BREAKTHROUGH IN
MACEDONIA"
Ami*A-n
Our text is taken this week
from the experiences of Paul's
secoed missionary journey.
He has revisited some of the
chinches that be had planted
in Asia Minor and has a
heart felt compassion for the
folks in the western direction
from him, namely in the
Roman provinces at Asia. He
and his party are forbidden
right then from entering this
new field. Luke arrives and
almost simultaneously, Paul
gets s word from God to
proceed into Macedonia (v
10). The fact that Paul's vision
of the man of Macedonia
calling for the gospel to be
preached there comes just as
Luke arrives, gives the im
pression that the Holy Spirit
wanted Luke to be along with
Paul as he entered Macedonia
and Philippi. Since there is so
much specific information
about Philippi, it is believed
by some that Luke may have
been from here. Plus, Philippi
was a medical center of sorts
which makes us feel Luke had
prior knowledge of the city. It
was a Roman "colony."
?
meaning that living in PhiHppi
?? like living in Rome as to
freedoms and privileges of
citizens. The city was located
on an important travel route,
which made it poest>le that
many travelers could be af
fected by the gospel while
passing through.
The first Sabbath day that
came, Paul found the place of
prayer where the Jews of that
city met. The htct that he
knew where to gomakes us
feel that Luke knew right
where it was. Of course, the
Jews who lived in these
Roman cities at times were
few in number and may not
have had enough families
there to build a synagogue.
They required 10 families to
have a synogogue. The Jew
ish custom was to meet for
prayer near the water, as they
did in Babylon in Psalm 137.
Going there, Paul met and led
his first Euopean convert to
Jesus. She was a lady named
Lydia from another city. Her
life was that of a business
woman and likely was well-to
do. She sold expensive cloth.
She was not a Jew but was a
worshipper of the true God.
havu been a mixed religion in
her city between p^anisa
PWi&y^MMlre* nfefag'tf
good religion with pagan.
When she bears the gospel of
the Lord Jesui, she believes
*?d her household. She then
becomes s source of hospitali
ty end livlihood for Paul and
hU party, although perhaps
PauJ ? reluctant to be over
hearing. Sh^ "constrained"
them. ?
One day as they were going
to that prayer meeting place.
Paul ran across a demon-pos
sessed giri. She kept follow
ing Paul and kept crying aloud
to him, recognizing bim as a
man of God. The demons
quite frequently did this to
Jesus, especially in Mmfc.
Her deipon thought to have
been the Python, snake spirit
who guarded the sacred place
of one of the Greek deities
where sacred words were
spoken by that Greek god.
Thus, her demon spirit could
prophesy or tell fortunes.
Several men in that city had
bought her as a slave and
were using her for profit. Paul
became very annoyed with
her contiuous calls out and
really saw them as cries for
help and healing. For the first
time in the book of Acts, a
demon is cast out. Notice that
the same formula for healing
of demon possession is used
as for healing other diseases
Paul calls her healed as he
commanded the demon to
come out of her in "the name
of Jesus."
Thus the Philippian minis
try begins and Paul's miseries
begin. This test teaches us
about Paul's dependence
upon the Holy Spirit's leader
ship in his work. It also
reveals God's pleasure in
using godly women in His
church. It shows Paul's pat
tern of finding that communi
ty of godfearers in a city
where he usually begins his
preaching and teaching con
cerning Jesus as the Lord and
Christ for men. Finally, it
demonstrates that God bles
sed his work through signs
and miracles. The work in
Macedonia opens successfully
catch of the year.^^/7 J
