Act 11:1And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.

Act 11:2

Act 11:2And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him,

Act 11:3Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them.

Act 11:4

Act 11:4But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and expounded it by order unto them, saying,

Act 11:5

Act 11:5I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me:

Act 11:6

Act 11:6Upon the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and saw fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.

Act 11:7

Act 11:7And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat.

Act 11:8

Act 11:8But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth.

Act 11:9

Act 11:9But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.

Act 11:10

Act 11:10And this was done three times: and all were drawn up again into heaven.

Act 11:11And, behold, immediately there were three men already come unto the house where I was, sent from Caesarea unto me.

Act 11:12

Act 11:12And the Spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man's house:

Act 11:13

Act 11:13And he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter;

Act 11:14

Act 11:14Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved.

Act 11:15

Act 11:15And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning.

Act 11:16

Act 11:16Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.

Act 11:17

Act 11:17Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?

Act 11:18

Act 11:18When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.

The Church at Antioch

Act 11:19Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only.

Act 11:24For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord.

Act 11:26
