“Mnason of Cyprus, a disciple of long standing…” (Acts 21:16)

The only thing we know about Mnason is he was a Christian of consistency. Long-standing faith doesn’t sit down when the going gets rough. Long-standing discipleship keeps reaching upward and finding new growth. Long-standing faith doesn’t come up short – it finishes strong.

Be Mnason – be a long-stander.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites

Today’s Reading: Acts 21:10-19

Questions to ask:

How does this show the continuation of Jesus’ work now going on in the church?
How is the gospel, Paul’s preaching, and/or Paul’s defense received?
What is the Holy Spirit doing in this text?
What in our reading shows how Paul handled adversity and difficulty?

This year, #Biblebites are following the life and writings of Paul. If you would like a copy of the reading schedule, you can view it here: https://eastlandchristians.org/news-events/2023-vision
