You know that all the believers in Asia Minor have deserted me. They include Phygelus and Hermogenes.

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.

The first time I was put on trial, no one came to help me. Everyone deserted me. I hope they will be forgiven for it.

Paul and those traveling with him passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia. They came to Thessalonica. A Jewish synagogue was there.

“ Anyone who comes to me must hate their father and mother. They must hate their wife and children. They must hate their brothers and sisters. And they must hate even their own life. Unless they do this, they can’t be my disciple.Whoever doesn’t carry their cross and follow me can’t be my disciple.

Mark, Aristarchus, Demas and Luke work together with me. They also send you greetings.

That’s because everyone who is a child of God has won the battle over the world. Our faith has won the battle for us.Who is it that has won the battle over the world? Only the person who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

Titus, I am sending you this letter. You are my true son in the faith we share. May God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior give you grace and peace.

But God comforts those who are sad. He comforted us when Titus came.

Our dear friend Luke, the doctor, sends greetings. So does Demas.Give my greetings to the brothers and sisters in Laodicea. Also give my greetings to Nympha and the church that meets in her house.

But I still had no peace of mind. I couldn’t find my brother Titus there. So I said goodbye to the believers at Troas and went on to Macedonia.

All the others are looking out for their own interests. They are not looking out for the interests of Jesus Christ.

Love for money causes all kinds of evil. Some people want to get rich. They have wandered away from the faith. They have wounded themselves with many sorrows.

God put into the heart of Titus the same concern I have for you. Thanks should be given to God for this.

The Berean Jews were very glad to receive Paul’s message. They studied the Scriptures carefully every day. They wanted to see if what Paul said was true. So they were more noble than the Thessalonian Jews.

Titus had already started collecting money from you. So we asked him to help you finish making your kind gift.

But all this has happened so that the words of the prophets would come true.” Then all the disciples left him and ran away.

Remember Lot’s wife!

In the same way, you must give up everything you have. Those of you who don’t cannot be my disciple.

From Paphos, Paul and his companions sailed to Perga in Pamphylia. There John Mark left them and returned to Jerusalem.

But Paul didn’t think it was wise to take him. Mark had deserted them in Pamphylia. He hadn’t continued with them in their work.

“ No one can serve two masters at the same time. Either you will hate one of them and love the other. Or you will be faithful to one and dislike the other. You can’t serve God and money at the same time.”

Then after fourteen years, I went up again to Jerusalem. This time I went with Barnabas. I took Titus along also.I went because God showed me what he wanted me to do. I spoke in private to those who are respected as leaders. I told them the good news that I preach among the Gentiles. I wanted to be sure I wasn’t running my race for no purpose. And I wanted to know that I had not been running my race for no purpose.Titus was with me. He was a Greek. But even he was not forced to be circumcised.

They have left God’s way. They have wandered off. They follow the way of Balaam, son of Beor. He loved to get paid for doing his evil work.

But the Jews in Thessalonica found out that Paul was preaching God’s word in Berea. So some of them went there too. They stirred up the crowds and got them all worked up.

Command people who are rich in this world not to be proud. Tell them not to put their hope in riches. Wealth is so uncertain. Command those who are rich to put their hope in God. He richly provides us with everything to enjoy.

Still another person said,“ I will follow you, Lord. But first let me go back and say goodbye to my family.”Jesus replied,“ Suppose someone starts to plow and then looks back. That person is not fit for service in God’s kingdom.”

All the brothers and sisters who are with me join me in writing. We are sending this letter to you, the members of the churches in Galatia.

Paul spent some time in Antioch. Then he left and traveled all over Galatia and Phrygia. He gave strength to all the believers there.
