Barnabas Brings Paul Back To Antioch Series
Contributed by John Lowe on Nov 28, 2017 (message contributor)
Summary: The Antioch church under the leadership that Barnabas provided had grown to the point that it was obvious that Barnabas needed a helper. One man immediately came to mind, his friend Saul of Tarsus (Paul).
{6] (Acts 11:21-23) The power of the Lord was upon them, and large numbers of these Gentiles believed and turned to the Lord. When the church at Jerusalem heard what had happened, they sent Barnabas to Antioch. When he arrived and saw this proof of God's favor, he was filled with joy, and he encouraged the believers to stay true to the Lord.
{7] (1 Pe. 4:16) But it is no shame to suffer for being a Christian. Praise God for the privilege of being called by his wonderful name!
