THE APOSTLE PAUL – LESSON 15

SECOND MISSIONARY JOURNEY – PART 1

From 48 to 50 A.D. Paul and Barnabas ministered with the church leaders at their home base in Antioch of Syria. The doctrinal dispute of salvation whether by grace or by Jewish law had been settled in the Jerusalem Council who had given Paul letters to distribute verifying grace over law.

It was now time to begin a second missionary journey. Barnabas wanted to take young John Mark with him and Paul, but Paul objected strongly. Mark had started the first trip with them and ministered with them in Cyprus. However, when their ship landed in Asia Minor (Turkey today) at the port of Perga in the Roman province of Pamphylia, young Mark got cold feet and took a ship back home to Antioch, leaving the other two to go on alone.

Paul did not trust Mark because of that abandonment. However, Barnabas believed in the young man and desired to give him a second chance. Paul, being of an exceptionally strong personality and strong will absolutely refused to allow Mark to go with them. The argument was so heated that Paul and Barnabas decided to go their separate ways. Barnabas chose to take mark on his journey. Paul chose the prophet from Jerusalem, Silas, for his journey.

Barnabas and John Mark took a ship to Cyprus where they had previously ministered. Paul and Silas went by land preaching through Syria and into Paul’s home province of Cilicia. They confirmed (taught) the word to the various churches and delivered to them the letters from the Jerusalem Council. He probably visited home at Tarsus and the surrounding area where he had preached during his previous seven-year exile.

This second missionary journey took about four years, 50-53 A.D. The first part was visiting churches previously established, then they went into new territory taking the gospel for the first time into Europe.

Tomorrow we will begin to trace their route.

WHAT IF?

There are a lot of what’s and ifs in life. Questions are nothing new. It starts in childhood. Children ask hundreds of questions every day and most of them are “What is this”, “How is this”, or “Why is this?” This is how they learn. Years ago, I was part of a company that sold a product called “Childcraft, The How and Why Library.” I think I learned a lot of the how’s and why’s from that children’s set of books. At least it helped me answer a lot of my children’s questions.

The what ifs are usually asked by adults when someone is unsure of what God wants them to do. They have the fear of tomorrow and have concerns about their past. They aren’t convinced that God could love them because of their past sin. The spirit behind this kind of confusion is fear. Fear will make us continually ask “What if?

People have tormented themselves with these words. They haven’t learned that God hasn’t given them the spirit of fear. Fear comes from Satan. God has given us the spirit of power, love, and a sound mind according to II Timothy 1:7. We don’t have to fear tomorrow. We don’t have to be worried over our past. God has a plan and the “what ifs” are of no consequence when we go with God and His plan.

Our faith is built through reading the scriptures and hearing the scriptures preached. Do you want more faith? Then read the scriptures out loud to yourself because faith comes by hearing the word of God according to Romans 10:17.

So don’t worry about the what ifs and the whys and the when’s of life. God will reveal what you need to know in His time. In the meantime. keep an attitude of praise, because praise is our secret weapon that defeats Satan and the fear he tries to bring with “what ifs”.

Prophetic Exhortation

Don't ever underestimate the power of prayer. But....when you pray you must believe that you will receive. That is called faith! Don't be double minded. Believe God for what you need and He will supply that need. It may not come when you expect it, but it will come. Now put your hands together and start praying and then start thanking God for bringing the prayer to pass!

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

Did you know that God creates clear roads, super highways and by passes...Where all you can see now are washed out roads, dead ends and detours? Exodus 14 tells us of how God came through for the children of Israel. They faced what looked like sure death either from Pharaoh's mighty army or by drowning in the Red Sea. Sure they were in panic mode but our God came through for them right there at the very last minute; And He made a stream line highway in the middle of the overflowing Red Sea. No matter where you are today or what you’re going through; You can know for certain that God still specializes in creating super highways and by passes... And He will come through for you in the midst of your own washed out roads, dead ends and detours. Just stop looking at your problems and start looking at your Savior.
