Acts 13:42-44
42 So when the Jews went out of the synagogue, the Gentiles begged that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath. 43 Now when the congregation had broken up, many of the Jews and devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God. 44 On the next Sabbath almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God.
When people have not heard the gospel explained before, many will do as these Jews and non-Jews to eagerly come back to ask for more of God's word. Some will even begin associating with those teaching the words of life. So we do as Paul and Barnabas to exhort and encourage followers of Christ to not give up on the grace working in them. We disciple and remind others that God is working, so why stop following?
