Fellowship in Praise

Acts 21:17-20

When we arrived at Jerusalem, the brothers and sisters received us warmly. The next day Paul and the rest of us went to see James, and all the elders were present. Paul greeted them and reported in detail what God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry. When they heard this, they praised God. Then they said to Paul: 'You see, brother, how many thousands of Jews have believed, and all of them are zealous for the law.' (NIVUK)

Paul's long journey to Jerusalem was over (Acts 19:21; Acts 20:22). He did not know exactly how he would be accused by the religious leaders and handed over to the Gentile authorities (Acts 21:10-11) but his priority was to encourage the believers that God's Word was powerful and had been received in what is now Cyprus, Turkey and Greece. The Christians in Jerusalem, who had their own struggles (Romans 15:26), were delighted to welcome Paul and his team and to hear how God had turned the hearts of many Gentiles to trust in Jesus.
