Summary: Paul's first journey
The Gospel Spreads
"a large number of people believed, both of Jews and of Greeks" (v. 1)
"granting that signs and wonders be done by their hands." (v. 3)
Let's pray this happens here as well!
The Work of God vs. the work of the "gods"
"Seen that he had faith to be made well" (v. 9)
Faith SOMETIMES helps with healing.
Paul was stoned but he survived. Christians are still being persecuted: www.opendoorss.usa.org www.persecution.com
"they had appointed elders" (v. 23) These are the ministry leaders in the church.
