Paul came to Jerusalem and met with James and the elders. He told them about the wonderful work God had done among the Gentiles, and they praised God. Later, Jews from Asia saw Paul in the temple, stirred up the crowd, and accused him of bringing Gentiles into the temple. The crowd seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple. The Roman commander arrived and took him into the barracks in chains.
Even when facing misunderstanding, false accusation, or even danger to our lives, we must remain faithful to God's calling. Paul was willing to endure all suffering and persecution for the gospel, because he knew that fulfilling the Lord's mission sometimes requires great courage and sacrifice.
