4. Paul and his companions traveled from town to town. They reported what the apostles and elders in Jerusalem had decided. The people were supposed to obey what was in the report.
5. So the churches were made strong in the faith. The number of believers grew every day.
6. Paul and his companions traveled all through the area of Phrygia and Galatia. The Holy Spirit had kept them from preaching the word in Asia Minor.
7. They came to the border of Mysia. From there they tried to enter Bithynia. But the Spirit of Jesus would not let them.
8. So they passed by Mysia. Then they went down to Troas.
