THOSE WHO ARE PERSUADED BY TRUE PREACHING  AND  THOSE WHO REJECT TRUE PREACHING As you read the below from The Book of Acts, Chapter 17, Verses 1 to 14, notice the different reactions that occur in Thessalonica and in Berea .  There are those who were persuaded and believed Paul's preaching and there were those who violently rejected Paul's preaching.  There are both Jews and Greeks, men and women involved.  Also notice that the Thessalonians who rejected Paul's preaching also go to Berea, the next city that Paul and his companion went to, and they also cause trouble in that city. ____________________________________________________________________________ ACTS 17 A Paraphrase of the New King James Version PAUL AND SILAS PREACHED CHRIST IN THESSALONICA.   Now they passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia and came to Thessalonica where there was a synagogue of the Jews.  As his custom was, Paul went to them in the Synagogue for three Sabbaths and...
