Where did Paul go after his short stay in Jerusalem, and what did that begin?
After a short stay in Jerusalem, Paul went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia, the area of Antioch and his hometown of Tarsus. This began his ministry of calling out a people for His name from among the Gentiles.
Les explains that after Paul stopped at Jerusalem for a couple of weeks, he came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia, which is the area of Antioch and his hometown of Tarsus. This was the beginning of Paul's ministry—a calling out of a people for His name, but from among the Gentiles. Les also notes that Paul had three years with the Lord at the onset of his ministry, just as Peter had three years, showing God's balance: Israel had about 2000 years, and the Body of Christ has been on the scene nearly 2000 years with a few Jews.
