Answer Details
Paul and Barnabas were referred to as 'gods' in Lystra because they healed a crippled man. When the people in Lystra saw that the man was healed, they were amazed and thought that Paul and Barnabas must be gods. They even prepared sacrifices for them. However, Paul and Barnabas quickly corrected them, saying that they were not gods, but rather servants of the one true God. They proclaimed the gospel with power and were able to perform miracles through the power of the Holy Spirit.
