BIBLE QUIZ:

**********

(New Testament/Book of Acts) And it came to pass in Iconium, that they [Paul and Barnabas] went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed. But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren. Therefore they stayed a long time speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands……………And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them, They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the surrounding region: And there they preached the gospel. And there sat a certain man at Lystra…………………

What was the deal with the “certain man” at Lystra? What happened to him? What names did the people of Lystra give to Barnabas and Paul?
