Letter "L" » Lystra
«And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked: / The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed, / Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.»
«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 region that lieth round about: / And there they preached the gospel.»
«Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek: / Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium.»
«And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch, / Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.»
«But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, / Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.»
