According to the Mighty Acts of God, Mark had changed for the better because Peter later asked Mark to join him…

life into me when I was much younger and then as an adult when you sent a “rock” with me into combat. You planted many seeds of which some are still sprouting as validated by this letter. Through many self-assessments, I’ve determined that I’m a Barnabas type character who encourages and seeks to help others behind the scenes.

In Acts 15, it appears as if he was sent by the church, however in reality God had already appointed Paul and Barnabas for his work in the previous chapters. As one scholar noted, in Galatians 2, Paul mentions, his trip to Jerusalem occurs as a result of a direct revelation from the Holy Ghost. Although this statement does not seem to point any similarity in Act…

In most cases human error and death are part of a hospital environment, but Cullen was under suspicion from his first nursing job. St. Barnabas suspected him, they could have stopped him early in his career taking his nursing license due to his indiscretions at their facility, but the did not.

understood through the previous chapter, Acts 4 in which there is an account of the eminent liberality and sincerity of early Christians, in being willing to give up their property in order to provide for the poor.
