Acts 11:21-24

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

²²Well the report concerning them reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch.

²³Upon arriving and seeing the grace of God, he was glad, and he kept encouraging them all to remain true to the Lord with purpose of heart

²⁴(for he was a good man, full of Holy Spirit and of faith). And a considerable crowd was added to the Lord.
