Acts 15:32-38

³²Both Judas and Silas, also being prophets themselves, encouraged and strengthened the brothers with many words.

³³After some time, they were released with peace from the brothers to the apostles.

³⁵But Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch, teaching and preaching the Word of the Lord, with many others also.

³⁶Some time later Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us return now and visit our brothers in each city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, to see how they are doing.”

³⁷Now Barnabas resolved to take John (the one called Mark) along as well.

³⁸But Paul insisted on not taking someone who had deserted them in Pamphilia and not gone with them to the work.
