Paul Finishes First Missionary Journey

Acts 14:19-28

¶“19A group of Jews from Antioch and Iconium came to Lystra and won over the crowds.

On the next day he left with Barnabas for Derbe” (Acts 14:19-20).

¶“21When Paul and Barnabas had preached the gospel to Derbe, and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch. 22They confirmed the souls of the disciples, urging them to continue in the faith. They taught that through much tribulation we must enter into the Kingdom of God” (Acts 14:21-22).

¶“23Paul and Barnabas appointed elders for the disciples in every church. With prayer and fasting Paul and Barnabas committed these congregations to the Lord, on whom they had believed” (Acts 14:23).

¶“24Paul and Barnabas next passed through Pisidia, and came to Pamphylia. 25When they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia. 26From there they sailed to Antioch, whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had completed” (Acts 14:24-26).

¶“27When Paul and Barnabas arrived in Antioch, they gathered the church together. They reported all that God had done with them, and how he had opened a door of faith to the Gentile nations. 28Paul and Barnabas stayed for a long time with the disciples in Antioch” (Acts 14:27-28).
