Acts 14. Synagogue results in Iconium Paul and Barnabas spoke with confidence and strength in the synagogue. However, outsiders were stirred to rage and wanted to bring division from the message being spoken. While many were reached for the faith with signs and wonders to follow; there were still multitudes divided. At one point there was a crippled man who never walked, but seeing that he had faith; Paul told him to stand up straight and walk! He rose and walked and a miracle took place, but the crowds wanted to esteem Paul & Barnabas as their gods. The Apostles tore their clothes and cried out to them; why do this, they both were just men with a message. The story goes on to say the people wanted tp stone the Apostles. As in the story; what are some of the challenges the churches face today as they did back then? This Chapter is a reminder of what can be in the body of Christ as a whole, reporting the good news to our cities and communities.
(Heb. 2:4 God confirmed the message by giving signs and wonders and various miracles and gifts of the Holy Spirit whenever He chose.)
To those who follow believe we must continue to proclaim the Good News and message of Jesus Christ. We can find healing and comfort in His Presence when we deeply connect with Jesus. He is waiting, and He loves you... Many Blessings.
