In Acts 15v36-41 a disagreement between Paul and Barnabas is recorded. The disagreement was about whether or not they should bring along John, who was also called Mark with them; Paul did not think it was wise because John (Mark) had left them during their previous journey.
John Mark turned back from the journey at Perga, and returned to Jerusalem. See Acts 13:13.

Barnabas was Paul's companion on his first missionary journey. They traveled together to Cyprus and Asia Minor to preach the gospel and establish churches.

Paul's First Missionary Journey. Recorded in Acts 13: 1 to 13
Many biblical scholars believe that the first missionary journey of Paul of Tarsus was to Cyprus. There is not 100% agreement with this however.
2 years
Paul's first missionary journey was around 46 A.D. And he took along with him his aid, a person called Barnabas.
Paul received the "Macedonian call" while on his second missionary journey. His first trip to Europe was in response to this call. You can read about when Paul started his second missionary journey in Acts 15:36-41, and when Paul received the "Macedonian call" in Acts 16:6-11, and read about the first convert in Europe in Acts 16:14-15.
Timotheus
timothy
Paul visited Corinth during his second missionary journey, where he stayed for over a year and a half. He visited Athens during his second missionary journey as well, after leaving Berea and before arriving in Corinth.
AnswerThe apostle Paul never referred to himself as Saul and never suggests that he went on the "first missionary journey" to Cyprus, but Acts of the Apostles gives him that name until the first missionary journey to Cyprus, where he obtained the new name, Paul.If Acts is correct, then Saul and Paul are the same person.
