Divine Overruling
Acts 18:12-17
While Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews of Corinth made a united attack on Paul and brought him to the place of judgment. 'This man,' they charged, 'is persuading the people to worship God in ways contrary to the law.' Just as Paul was about to speak, Gallio said to them, 'If you Jews were making a complaint about some misdemeanour or serious crime, it would be reasonable for me to listen to you. But since it involves questions about words and names and your own law – settle the matter yourselves. I will not be a judge of such things.' So he drove them off. Then the crowd there turned on Sosthenes the synagogue leader and beat him in front of the proconsul; and Gallio showed no concern whatever. (NIVUK)

The Lord had promised that He would keep Paul safe in Corinth: this was not one of those cities where a short mission, ending in violence against the apostle, would establish a church.  God had many people to reach in the city and most would come with religious and cultural baggage (Acts 18:9-11). That was why Paul needed to stay a long time there; to disciple the new believers so that their faith would be securely founded on the death and resurrection of Jesus.
