Acts 14:1-7
At Iconium Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish synagogue. There they spoke so effectively that a great number of Jews and Greeks believed. But the Jews who refused to believe stirred up the other Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers. So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who confirmed the message of his grace by enabling them to perform signs and wonders. The people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews, others with the apostles. There was a plot afoot among both Gentiles and Jews, together with their leaders, to ill-treat them and stone them. But they found out about it and fled to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra and Derbe and to the surrounding country, where they continued to preach the gospel. (NIVUK)

Having been expelled from Antioch in Pisidia (Acts 13:50-52), Paul and Barnabas travelled down the Roman military road some 60 miles south-east to Iconium (the modern Turkish city of Konya).  As Jewish teachers, their strategy was to go first to the local synagogue and speak about Jesus, explaining that He fulfils the Old Testament prophecies.  They spoke effectively: that is, they spoke truthfully about the Scriptures, inspired by the Holy Spirit.  The effect of that combination of truth, with the Holy Spirit speaking to the listeners, was that many of them believed.
