# Acts 14 General Notes
|
|
|
|
### Special concepts in this chapter
|
|
|
|
#### "The message of his grace"
|
|
|
|
The message of Jesus is the message that God will show grace to those who believe in Jesus. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/grace]] and [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/believe]])
|
|
|
|
#### Zeus and Hermes
|
|
|
|
The Gentiles in the Roman Empire worshiped many different false gods who do not really exist. Paul and Barnabas told them to believe in the "living God." (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/falsegod]])
|
|
|
|
### Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter
|
|
|
|
#### "We must enter into the kingdom of God through many sufferings."
|
|
|
|
Jesus told his followers before he died that everyone who followed him would suffer persecution. Paul is saying the same thing using different words.
