1. Paul and Silas journeyed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, then came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.
2. As was Paul’s custom, he entered the synagogue and for three Sabbaths interacted with them on the basis of the scriptures.
3. Through his interpretation of the scriptures, he demonstrated that the Christ had to suffer and rise from the dead. He declared, "This Jesus whom I proclaim to you is the Christ."
