20 Immediately he preached [e]the Christ in the synagogues, that He is the Son of God.
21 Then all who heard were amazed, and said, “Is this not he who destroyed those who called on this name in Jerusalem, and has come here for that purpose, so that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?”
22 But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt in Damascus, proving that this Jesus is the Christ.
23 Now after many days were past, the Jews plotted to kill him. 24 But their plot became known to Saul. And they watched the gates day and night, to kill him. 25 Then the disciples took him by night and let him down through the wall in a large basket.
26 And when Saul had come to Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, and did not believe that he was a disciple. 27 But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles. And he declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that He had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus. 28 So he was with them at Jerusalem, coming in and going out. 29 And he spoke boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus and disputed against the Hellenists,[f] but they attempted to kill him. 30 When the brethren found out, they brought him down to Caesarea and sent him out to Tarsus.
31 Then the [g]churches throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were edified.[h] And walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they were multiplied.
Good morning and welcome
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen

The Holy Spirit anointing enabled Paul to preach immediately. In prayer he received an abundance of revelations from God. He had studied Scripture for years and by the new anointing of the Spirit he could and did preach and convince men that Jesus was the Messiah
It was Peter in the above case which is interesting. He seemed to have a slight problem with us gentiles.
Acts 10:13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. Its clearer in the next chapter.
Good morning everyone. Last day of summer today and it will be hot today. Tomorrow autumn begins.
Have to get a new dryer. My husband worked on it all day yesterday but it's had it. He has some parts coming in so what we'll do is if he can fix it we wil donate it. in the meantime I will get a new one.
My dryer over heated 2+ years ago after drying for 45 minutes. So now I dry my clothes for 30 minutes and wait 30 minutes while my dryer cools down and dry for another 30 minutes. Eventually I’ll have to replace it, but I’m putting it off as long as I can.
