Acts 17 Pt2 - The Bereans Hear And Receive

Jonathan Edwards sums up the attitude of the Bereans hearing and accepting the Gospel preached from the Old Testament they knew so well:
“It seems to me that God would have our whole dependence be upon the Scriptures, because the greater our dependence is on the Word of God, the more direct and immediate is our dependence on God himself. The more absolute and entire our dependence on the Word of God is, the greater respect shall we have to that Word, the more shall we esteem and honor and prize it; and this respect to the Word of God will lead us to have the greater respect to God himself.” J. Edwards
