Acts Chapter 15
Some Jews began teaching that Gentiles could not be saved unless they were circumcised. Paul and Barnabas challenged them, and ultimately this dispute
was brought before the Church in Jerusalem where the decision was made stating circumcision was not required due to references in the Old Testament, which
presentated by James. Paul, who was in Antioch, spoke with Barnabas regarding meeting with the bretheren in all the cities the ministered in, to see how
they were doing. Barnabas wanted to take John Mark with them, but Paul said no, so Mark went with Barnabas and Silas went with Paul.

Paul now leaves to travel to Macedonia. He spent three months there, and hearing that there was a plot against him, he changed course to go through Macedonia instead of Syria. It was here where he raised the young man from the dead who fell three stories during Paul's teaching. He called the Elders of Ephesus to him and he encouraged them to be strong in the faith, also telling them they may never see him again.
01:10:23
Paul now presents his case before King Agrippa. But what he states has more to do with the gospel and its importance rather than his own case. He speaks of his conversion to Christianity, especially regarding the appearance of Jesus. After Paul is finished, Agrippa states he sees no crime regarding Paul, but because Paul appealed to Caesar, he could not free him, and therefore sent him to Rome.
