Time To Go

Acts 18:18-22

Paul stayed on in Corinth for some time. Then he left the brothers and sisters and sailed for Syria, accompanied by Priscilla and Aquila. Before he sailed, he had his hair cut off at Cenchreae because of a vow he had taken. They arrived at Ephesus, where Paul left Priscilla and Aquila. He himself went into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews. When they asked him to spend more time with them, he declined. But as he left, he promised, 'I will come back if it is God's will.' Then he set sail from Ephesus. When he landed at Caesarea, he went up to Jerusalem and greeted the church and then went down to Antioch. (NIVUK)

Paul's second missionary journey from Antioch to Corinth, via Troas and Athens, took about three years. About half of that time, he was in Corinth establishing the church there (Acts 18:11), and writing two letters to the Thessalonian church. But the time came when he knew that it was time to go. It was time to let the churches in Jerusalem and Antioch (the centre for world mission at that time) know how the gospel had been received, despite opposition, in many other cities.
