DAILY?READINGS: Numbers 30-31; Proverbs 26:13 to 27:27; Luke 3

 

Apollos… [was] an eloquent man, and mighty in the Scriptures. Acts 18:24

 

Apollos possessed many outstanding qualities. He was eloquent with his words and painstaking in his study of the Word (vs. 24). Yet he was also teachable and gladly took instruction from others (vs. 26). He was fervent in spirit, having the ability to speak and teach accurately the things concerning Jesus. Later on we’re told how he dealt with Jews who were new believers (vs. 27) and also ones that were not yet believers (vs. 28). He is an unsung hero of the epistles and a worthy model of one who “rightly divides the word of truth.” —Norman Craig Funston

Footprints of Jesus that make the pathway glow;
We will follow the steps of Jesus where-e’r they go. —Mary B. Slade
