Best Answer

Paul traveled to make new converts and to check up on earlier converts and members of the Church. He wanted to assure that they remained true to the Gospel. Sometimes he traveled to settle disputes. For example, he traveled to Jerusalem to meet with the other apostles to discuss some of the rules they were trying to enforce on the gentiles.

Paul's purpose was bringing the gospel to the gentiles.

"But when they [Jews] opposed Paul and became abusive, he shook out his clothes in protest and said to them, 'Your blood be on your own heads! I am innocent of it. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.'" [Acts 18:6]

"For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles- Surely you have heard about the administration of God's grace that was given to me for you, that is, the mystery made known to me by revelation, as I have already written briefly." [Ephesians 3:1-3]

How did Paul's first and second missionary journeys differ?

Most Bible's have a section in the back which contains these on a map of the regions to which he traveled. They may either be illustrated separately or, if they are put on the same map, it is easy to compare them. It may also be worth noting that Paul made a number of journeys which were not missionary journeys, including a visit to Arabia after he was converted. These journeys will not be included on such maps. A Bible Atlas will also have details of the missionary journeys of Paul, often in better detail.
