Paul was consistent: he reasoned in the synagogue, trying to persuade Jews...kind of like apologetics/veritas... that's awesome! But then he also shook off his clothes and said he was clear of his responsibility and went to the gentiles. Where do we draw the line?
Paul was protected...the synagogue ruler was beaten. Was Gallio a bad man? Or was God just using him to protect Paul?
It is amazing that Apollo reflected Jesus by being bold and vigorously refuting the Jews in public debate. He had been a help to those who needed a strength in their faith. He was a more tangible representation of Christ to the new believers. How can we do the same thing today?
