Acts 15:35-41

35And Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch, teaching and announcing the glad tidings, with many others also, of the word of the Lord. 36But after certain days Paul said to Barnabas, Let us return now and visit the brethren in every city where we have announced the word of the Lord, [and see] how they are getting on. 37And Barnabas proposed to take with [them] John also, called Mark; 38but Paul thought it not well to take with them him who had abandoned them, [going back] from Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work. 39There arose therefore very warm feeling, so that they separated from one another; and Barnabas taking Mark sailed away to Cyprus; 40but Paul having chosen Silas went forth, committed by the brethren to the grace of 1God. 41And he passed through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the assemblies.
