Acts 11:18

Peter's Explanation To The Church In Jerusalem

¹⁷ Now if God gave them the same gift that he gave us when we believed in the Lord Jesus, the Messiah, who was I to try to stop God?" ¹⁸ When they heard this, they calmed down, and praised God by saying, "So God has given repentance that leads to life even to gentiles." ¹⁹ Now the people who were scattered by the persecution that started because of Stephen went as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except Jews.
