Salvation and Praise

When others were brought to Christ, His followers in the early church praised God – because they recognized that it was God who drew them all through the ministry of others. When Paul, Luke and party reported to James and the gathered elders at Jerusalem the results of the work on their journey through Macedonia:

"Paul greeted them and reported in detail what God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry. When they heard this, they praised God." ~ Acts 21:19-20a
