So the word of the Lord spread and grew in power.
In context
18Many of those who had believed came forward, confessing and disclosing what they had been doing; 19and a good number of those who had practiced magic arts brought their books together and burned them in front of everyone. When the value was added up, it came to fifty thousand pieces of silver. 20So the word of the Lord spread and grew in power. 21When all this had happened, Paul resolved in the Spirit to go to Jerusalem, passing through Macedonia and Achaia. “After I have been there,” he said, “I must see Rome as well.” 22He sent two of his helpers, Timothy and Erastus, on to Macedonia, while he himself stayed on for a time in Asia.
