.... on his mission to Cyprus and the Pisidian mainland. Barnabas first appears in Luke's account of communal living in the Jerusalem church, as a man of some means who gave to the church the proceeds from the sale of a piece land, "Barnabas sold a field he owned and brought the money and put it at the apostles' feet" (Acts 4:36-37).

.... and they who worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in truth” by defining the nature of that Spirit is God. It would be incorrect to state that “God is a spirit”, because then we would not be distinguishing Him from other beings who are also spirits that we are told about in The Bible.
