Acts 11:22-26

The Church in Antioch

22 The report of this came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. 23 When he came and saw q the grace of God, he was glad, and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord r with steadfast purpose, 24 for he was a good man, s full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people t were added to the Lord. 25 So Barnabas went to u Tarsus to look for Saul, 26 and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught a great many people. And in Antioch the disciples were first called v Christians.
