It is now March-April AD53, and we cover the next 43 YEARS of The Early Church starting with a trip of four years.
After a seven months’ rest, Paul started out again on the third missionary trip, which was to take him and his companions four years to complete. In next two to seven pictures we will cover the four year long missionary trip of Paul.
Paul again visited a umber of places he had been before an some new ones also wrote a number of letters which we have in the Bible.
The book of ACTS was written by Luke as History and covers 33 years. Luke wrote Acts about AD68. This covers the period from AD33 to AD62 of the early church history.
