We find\u00a0written in the New Testament about\u00a0a couple &#8211;\u00a0Aquila and Priscilla that have left the following seven very beautiful and worthy lessons to be learned and followed by every Christian couple.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"google-src-text\">1. <\/span>Priscilla and Aquila\u00a0have overcome hardships together<\/h2>\n<p>The first time they are mentioned in the Bible, we learn the following about this wonderful couple:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p><span class=\"google-src-text\">After these things he (Paul) left <\/span><span class=\"google-src-text\">Athens and went to Corinth.\u00a0And he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, having recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. He came to them,\u00a0and because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and they were working, for by trade they were tent-makers.\u00a0<\/span>(Acts 18:1-3)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It is not easy to change your place of residence, especially when you are forced. Today, material needs make men send their\u00a0wife\u00a0to an end of the earth and the man himself goes to\u00a0the other end. Unfortunately, it has become a model for some and often, people who are not lacking send their wives to work in other countries and agree to be separated for long periods, just for material gain.\u00a0Even sadder it\u00a0is to see that some Christians have started to rush for gaining\u00a0wealth\u00a0and sacrificed their relationship and their marriage.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"google-src-text\">2.<\/span> Aquila and Priscilla worked together<\/h2>\n<p>The Bible tells us that they had the same job as Paul had, that was making tents. In the end of the Epistle to\u00a0Romans, in conclusion, the Apostle Paul wrote about them:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p><span class=\"google-src-text\">Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus.<\/span> (Romans 16:3)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>While overcoming material difficulties, but also working\u00a0for Christ, this wonderful couple knew to work together always.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Priscilla and Aquila kept their\u00a0house\u00a0open<\/h2>\n<p>When someone has an open heart, his home will always\u00a0have room\u00a0for others. But if one spouse does not welcome guests, nor the other can welcome others. Priscilla and\u00a0Aquila were welcoming the guests. Although they were recently arrived in Corinth, when they saw Paul, they\u00a0received him into their home to stay. Then, when they were at Ephesus the following happened:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>Now a Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus; and he was mighty in the Scriptures.\u00a0This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he was speaking and teaching accurately the things concerning Jesus, being acquainted only with the baptism of John;\u00a0and he began to speak out boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, <strong>they took him aside<\/strong> and explained to him the way of God more accurately. (Acts 18:24-26)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Their home was open for Apollos and in the first Epistle to Corinthians, Paul wrote in conclusion:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p><span class=\"google-src-text\">The churches of Asia greet you Aquila and Prisca greet you heartily in the Lord, with <strong>the church that is in their house. (<\/strong><\/span>1 Corinthians 16:19)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Because they lived in Rome, then\u00a0in Corinth, and later in Ephesus, they had to change their residence frequently. But, in any place, their house was open for people and God\u2019s work.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"google-src-text\">4. <\/span>Aquila and Priscilla were\u00a0a missionary couple<\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"google-src-text\">If they\u00a0<\/span>were driven away by Claudius together with all other Jews from Rome, then from\u00a0Corinth they left for Ephesus\u00a0joining Paul and stayed there to preach the Way of the Lord and to plant a church.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>Paul, having remained many days longer, took leave of the brethren and put out to sea for Syria, and with him were Priscilla and Aquila. In Cenchrea he had his hair cut, for he was keeping a vow.\u00a0They came to Ephesus, and he left them there Now he himself entered the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.\u00a0(Acts 18:18-19)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>At the time when Paul wrote the first epistle to Corinthians, the church has been already gathered\u00a0in\u00a0Priscilla and Aquila\u2019s house.\u00a0It is sad to see how some people are willing\u00a0for Christian mission, but after they married, they become too comfortable as to leave somewhere.<\/p>\n<h2>5.Aquila and Priscilla taught people the Gospel<\/h2>\n<p>After they had listened to Apollos in the synagogue from Ephesus,\u00a0Priscilla and Aquila\u00a0invited him to their home and had shown him\u00a0the Way of God more accurately. Not traditions, not customs, not human opinions, not doctrines of one or another church, but they have shown him\u00a0the way of the Lord more accurately.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"google-src-text\">6.<\/span>\u00a0Priscilla and Aquila risked their lives\u00a0for others<\/h2>\n<p>This is how Paul writes about it in Romans:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus,\u00a0who <strong>for my life risked their own necks,<\/strong> to whom not only do I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles;\u00a0also greet the church that is in their house Greet Epaenetus, my beloved, who is the first convert to Christ from Asia. (Romans 16:3-5)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2><span class=\"google-src-text\">7.<\/span> Aquila and Priscilla\u00a0showed mutual respect<\/h2>\n<p>They did not have problems like who is or is not first, because they treated with mutual respect. Neither Paul nor Luke make any\u00a0distinguish in their writings between these two, showing that both the husband and the wife have worked with all dedication in close cooperation. One time they\u00a0say \u201cAquila and Priscilla\u201d and another time \u201cPriscilla and Aquila. None of them rejected the other, but worked in the most beautiful and fruitful collaboration.<\/p>\n<p>So God help us all behave\u00a0in our marriage for the cause of\u00a0the Gospel.<\/p>\n<p><em>Translated by Felicia Rotaru<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In our world there is a need\u00a0of model couples living beautifully in their marriage.
