Acts Chapters 14-15

In this episode, we read Acts chapters 14 and 15, where the gospel continues to spread despite both acceptance and opposition. Paul and Barnabas travel to new regions, preaching boldly and performing miracles, but they also face intense persecution. Through it all, they remain committed to strengthening believers and encouraging them to remain faithful. Chapter 15 addresses an important issue within the early church — whether Gentile believers must follow Jewish laws. The apostles and leaders gather to seek God’s guidance, ultimately affirming that salvation comes through grace, not through works of the law. Acts 14–15 reminds us that following Jesus may involve challenges, but unity, truth, and grace are essential as God’s people grow and navigate difficult questions together.
