Acts 11:20-27

²⁰But some of them were men from Cyprus and Cyrene, who, entering into Antioch spoke to the Greek speaking Jews, preaching the good news of the Lord Jesus.

²¹And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed, and turned to the Lord.

²²And the word about them was heard in the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent forth Barnabas to go as far as Antioch;

²³who, arriving and seeing the grace of God, was glad, and encouraged them all with purpose of heart to continue with the Lord,

²⁴for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people were added to the Lord.

²⁵And Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul,

²⁶and having found him, he brought him to Antioch. And it came about that for a whole year they assembled with the church and instructed many people. And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.

²⁷Now in these days prophets went down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
