Acts 9:31 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Then the Church — The whole body of Christian believers, had peace — Their bitterest persecutor being converted. And being built up — In holy, loving faith, continually increasing, and walking in — That is, speaking and acting only from this principle, the fear of God and the comfort of the Holy Ghost — An excellent mixture of inward and outward peace, tempered with filial fear.

Acts 9:31

31 Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.
