At its foundation, the ministry is a one-on-one interaction with people. Priscilla and Aquila were a good example of a couple working together to share the gospel with others. Even in cultures and situations where Christianity is repressed or suppressed, men and women can still have an effective ministry in their home. Here is an opportunity to strengthen your biblical knowledge and ability to teach someone that Jesus is the Christ — God in the flesh who came to be our Savior — just using Scripture.
Read these Scripture passages about Priscilla and Aquila and the ministry they had in their home:
Acts 18:1-4, 18-28
Rom. 16:3-4
1 Cor. 16:19

Write a 3-4 page paper covering the following points related to this topic:
Similar to Priscilla and Aquila, suppose you invited someone to your home to explain the way of God more accurately. However, the only resource you have to use is your Bible nothing else. How could you show someone who Jesus is using verses from both the Old and the New Testament (at least 5 verses from each Testament)?
As you do research for this assignment, you may use other sources to help you find good verses to use, but the main content of this Home Bible Study assignment should just be based on Scripture. Along with the verses, include your explanation on how those verses prove that Jesus was the Christ, the promised Messiah, who provided salvation according to the Scriptures (see 1 Corinthians 15:3-4; Luke 24:25-27).
