Acts 21:1-4
1 Now it came to pass, that when we had departed from them and set sail, running a straight course we came to Cos, the following day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara. 2 And finding a ship sailing over to Phoenicia, we went aboard and set sail. 3 When we had sighted Cyprus, we passed it on the left, sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload her cargo. 4 And finding disciples, we stayed there seven days. They told Paul through the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.
Paul and company kept sailing on their journey, ending up in Tyre for a week. There they found other disciples and stayed with them as the ship unloaded cargo before going on again. But these were moved by God to let Paul know the dangers of going on to Jerusalem. God was drawing him to go in spite of the danger, all for the gospel to reach the hearts of men and fill out God's plan till the journey’s end. He remained faithful after counting the cost, no matter who tried to dissuade him.
