14:19-23
|
Then some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium
and won the crowd over. They stoned Paul and dragged him outside the
city, thinking he was dead.
But after the disciples had gathered around him, he got up and went
back into the city. The next day he and Barnabas left for Derbe.
21-23
They preached the good news in that city and won a large
number of disciples. Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium and
Antioch, strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain
true to the faith. "We must go through many hardships to enter
the kingdom of God," they said.
Paul and Barnabas appointed elders for them in
each church and, with prayer and fasting, committed them to the
Lord, in whom they had put their trust.
