They
preached the good news in that city and won a large
number of disciples. Then they returned to Lystra,
Iconium and Antioch, 22 strengthening the
disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the
faith. "We must go through many hardships to enter
the kingdom of God," they said. 23 Paul
and Barnabas appointed elders for them in each
church and, with prayer and fasting, committed them
to the Lord, in whom they had put their trust. (NIV)

when they had preached the gospel to that city and
made many disciples, they returned to Lystra,
Iconium, and Antioch, 22 strengthening the souls of
the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the

tribulations enter the kingdom of God." 23 So when
they had appointed elders in every church, and
prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord
in whom they had believed. (NKJ)
