Now at Iconium they entered together into the Jewish synagogue and spoke in such a way that a great number of both Jews and Greeks believed.
Acts 14:1 ESV
From the beginning of Paul's missionary journeys, he went to the Jewish synagogue in each town first. This was necessary because the Gospel must be preached to the Jews first and only then to the Gentiles.
Some justify their hatred of Jews because the Jews rejected Christ, but the Bible itself proves this to be false. The religious leadership mostly rejected Christ, but some of them didn't, and a great many of the Jewish laity believed.
Reading the first three chapters of Genesis reveals our Creator’s perfection and mankind’s ignorance of that very perfection. the first two very bad choices mankind makes were first to sin (violating the instructions of God — 1 John 3:4) and then choosing to try and cover that sin in our own way without repentance. (Genesis 3:7) Mankind has a history of making bad decisions.

Thought for Today: Monday October 27
Why is it easier to see someone else’s fault than to see our own? I can think of several reasons – but one of the strongest is because we naturally love ourselves more than we love other people. Because we love ourselves, we don’t like to criticise ourselves or admit our faults. Doing that can be painful, and none of us like pain. The Bible teaches us to love others just as much as we love ourselves. Yeshua in fact, taught that this Commandment – along with the Commandment to love YHVH above all else – summarises YHVH’s Law {Luke 10:27}
