Clearly showing that there are times when God closes doors on our journey in order for us to get to the open door that will lead us further into the purpose of God. He brought an amazing fact that in this story we see how God directed Paul and the others in a way that deliberately opened up the Gospel into Europe and how the whole of history was affected by that opportunity.
