Barnabus was a Levite who sold land and donated to the the apostles for use in the new churches. He introduced Paul to the apostles in Jerusalem and assured them of Paul's genuine conversion (bearing in mind there would have been considerable skepticism given his former role in the persecution of Christians). Barnabus was described as being a good man and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. He went to Antioch and on the First Missionary Journey with Paul. He was to have gone on the Second Missionary Journey, but instead went with Mark to Cyprus on account of a disagreement with Paul over the inclusion of Mark on the Paul's journey.
Paul referred to Barnabas in his First Epistle to the Corinthians and in his Epistle to the Galatians, in both cases implying that the recipients already knew of Barnabas. It is hardly possible that Paul would have written of Barnabas in this way, unless Barnabas was a real person. Barnabas is also mentioned in Colossians, but the clear majority of biblical scholars regard Colossians as pseudographical, so this epistle does not provide proof for Barnabas.Acts made Paul a lesser character in the history of the early church, one who did not act on his own initiative but sought the authority of Peter and James on important matters. Whereas Paul had represented Barnabas as a loyal assistant, Acts had Barnabas become a mentor assigned to Paul by the Jerusalem elders in order to educate him and play a part in the Gentile church as an equal to Paul. There is no proof outside Acts that Barnabas was ever more than Paul's assistant.
Paul's traveling companions changed often. Some of the better-known men who accompanied him from time to time include Barnabas, John Mark, Silas, Luke, and Timothy. In his letters, Paul also mentions lesser-known companions such as Gaius and Aristarchus (Acts 19:29), and Epaphroditus (Philippians 2:25).
Barnabas took Paul and brought him to the apostles
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.
Barnabas was a Levite, a native of Cyprus, and companion to Paul. His name was Joseph (Joses) before the disciples called him Barnabas. Barnabas sold his property and gave the proceeds to the Jerusalem church. He also introduces Saul of Tarsus to this church.
Pamphylia (in modern day Turkey north-east from Cyprus) was where Mark left Paul and Barnabas.
In the book of Acts Chapter 13 it's said that Barnabas and other prophets and teachers reside in Antioch and Paul was sent there with them. But before this, Paul went to the apostles and stayed there with them before he was sent to Antioch, and the Holy Ghost had spoken that Paul and Barnabas be together for some mission and work together in the Lord.
No it was not Barabas the theif. But Barnabas who went with Paul.
Paul and Mark
John Mark
A:Paul frequently referred to himself as an apostle, which means 'messenger'. Paul was a messenger. On the same basis, the twelve disciples and even Barnabas, Mark and Luke can be considered messengers and therefore apostles.
It depends upon the journeys. the short answer is that over all the journeys Paul was accompanied by Peter, Barnabas, Timothy, Silas, John Mark (author of the Gospel of Mark) and Luke amongst others.
