IN ANTIOCH. Acts 14:26-28.

Acts 14:26

and thence they sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.

Acts 14:27

And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all things that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith unto the Gentiles.

Acts 14:28

And they tarried no little time with the disciples.

Acts 14:26-28 How many times had the minds of those in Antioch turned to the labors of those two whom they had sent forth to the work of preaching? How had they fared? Where had they labored? What success had the glorious glad tidings had in the far away places? All these questions and many more were answered as the church in Antioch assembled to hear the report of Paul and Barnabas. The news that God had opened a door for the preaching of the gospel among the Gentiles was received without question in this church since from the earliest history of the assembly the gospel had been preached unto the Greeks also. Thus concludes the first missionary journey.
