Having reached Macedonia we find that the first recorded convert is a woman called Lydia. She is a seller of purple dye but the really important matter about her standing when the apostle Paul arrives is that she is a worshipper of God. She is seeking the Lord for the way of salvation. Paul speaks to her and the matters of the greatest importance to her are revealed to her. The most vital matters for anyone are spiritual matters to do with the soul. She recognises she is a sinner and that the words of Paul, when he preaches Christ, are the very words she needs to hear. But ultimately she understands because the Lord opens her heart. He has already been at work making her ready to believe but now the Holy Spirit brings light and understanding to her. Have we experienced the new birth?
