Acts of the Apostles 9:29

In context

27Barnabas, however, took him in hand and brought him to the apostles. He told them how Saul had seen the Lord on the road, that the Lord had spoken to him, and how boldly he had spoken in Damascus in the name of Jesus. 28So he stayed with them, coming and going in Jerusalem, speaking boldly in the name of the Lord. 29He also spoke and argued with the Greek-speaking Jews, but they set out to kill him. 30When the brothers found out, they took him down to Caesarea and sent him off to Tarsus. 31So the church throughout Judea, Galilee and Samaria enjoyed peace. It was being built up, it went forward in the fear of the Lord, and the encouragement of the Holy Spirit made it grow.
