5Silas and Timothy came from Macedonia and joined Paul in Corinth. After this, Paul spent all his time telling people the Good News, showing them that Jesus is the Christ. 6But they would not accept Paul’s teaching and said some evil things. So he shook off the dust from his clothes n and said to them, “If you are not saved, it will be your own fault! I have done all I can do! After this, I will go to other nations.”
