Acts 18:4-11
He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath and tried to persuade both Jews and Greeks.When Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was occupied with preaching the message and solemnly testified to the Jews that Jesus is the Messiah.But when they resisted and blasphemed, he shook his robe and told them,“ Your blood is on your own heads! I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”So he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.Crispus, the leader of the synagogue, believed the Lord, along with his whole household. Many of the Corinthians, when they heard, believed and were baptized.Then the Lord said to Paul in a night vision,“ Don’t be afraid, but keep on speaking and don’t be silent.For I am with you, and no one will lay a hand on you to hurt you, because I have many people in this city.”And he stayed there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
