Acts-In-Replay: Being a Berean!
The Berean Christians are famous for the fact that when Paul preached, they searched the scriptures to find out whether the matters that he was teaching were actually in accordance with what is clearly taught in the Scriptures. Perhaps this is why:- 11 ‘These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica.‘ We are often told that we too should be like the Bereans, that we should not take for granted that what a preacher in church is saying, but that we should go over his sermons, look up all the references and check everything out. So how do we do that in a society where Bible knowledge generally is at a very low ebb in society, and, I think, in large sections of the visible church. Do we not need to copy the preaching methods of the early church? Of Paul himself?
