The New Team Roster

Heritage Bible Church

God assembled a choice team for the Second Missionary Journey. As we see this unfold, you'll see four important truths about what we call -missions,- the intentional spreading of the gospel.--Remember the setting of this. The first missionary journey lasted about a year and a half. It was followed by the Jerusalem Council, which once for all settled that the message of Paul was exactly the same as the message of Peter, the gospel preached to Gentiles was the same as the gospel preached to Jews, and salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone.--The Council drew up some recommendations to help guide Gentile Christians in their relationships with Jewish Christians, then sent Paul and Barnabas back to Antioch, along with two other spokesmen. Judas and Silas spent considerable time with the church in Antioch. Judas returned to Jerusalem, and Silas stayed in Antioch.--1 - The Basis For Missions Is The Church -15-35-36--2 - The Men For Missions Are Fallible -15-37-39--3 - The Team For Missions Is Important -16-1-3--4 - The Purpose For Missions Is The Church -16-4-5-
