Acts 18:1-18 - Preaching in Sin City
Paul’s missionary journey brought him to Corinth, a city with a reputation for immorality that would make Las Vegas blush. Paul first brought the Gospel to the synagogues, where the Jewish people there needed to hear that Jesus was their long-promised Messiah and they were not made right with God by following the Old Testament rules. He then told the Gentiles in Corinth about Jesus and how God had called them to repent of their sinful ways. In the same way God calls us to faith in Christ and to give up both the empty rules that we keep because we think they make us holy and the immoral habits that we practice that displease God and aren’t fitting for a child of God to do.

John 16:1-15 - The Spirit of Conviction
Jesus sends His promised Holy Spirit to help us know Him, and one of the ways that the Holy Spirit helps us is to cause us to feel convicted about our sins through the teachings of the Bible. As painful as this can be, we should not ignore or suppress this conviction but instead accept the rebuke, turn from our sinful behavior, and walk in obedience to Christ.
