In Iconium the Jews and Gentiles tried to stone Paul and Barnabas, so they left as any sensible person would. They didn’t want to remain and be stoned or lynched by this mob. It is a wise Christian who always knows when to stand his ground and when to leave for the glory of God. Paul and Barnabas were following the directions of the Lord Jesus given to them and so they left to go to Lystra and Derbe where they began sharing the Gospel again. Notice they didn’t quit because they were scared, but moved to another location and began again. Are we fearful of what others might think or do to us if we share the Gospel? May God give us boldness such as these men had.
And there they continued to preach the gospel. (Acts 14:7)
