In this study of Acts chapter 15, certain men from Judea teach that Gentiles must be circumcised after the manner of Moses to be saved, leading to strong dissension from Paul and Barnabas. They travel to Jerusalem to consult the apostles and elders, where Peter notes that Gentiles received the Holy Ghost by faith, just as the Jews, without the yoke of the law. James agrees, citing prophets, and de...

In this Bible study on Acts chapter 14, Paul and Barnabas preach in Iconium (modern Konya, Turkey), leading many Jews and Greeks to believe despite opposition, then flee threats of stoning to Lystra and Derbe in Lycaonia, continuing to share the gospel defined in 1 Corinthians 15 as Christ's death for sins, burial, and resurrection witnessed by Cephas, the twelve, and over 500 brethren. In Lys...
