Acts 11:22-26

22The 1news about them 2reached the ears of the church at Jerusalem, and they sent 3Barnabas off 4to 5Antioch. 23Then when he arrived and 6witnessed 7the grace of God, he rejoiced and began to encourage them all with 8resolute heart to remain true to the Lord; 24for he was a good man, and 9full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And 10considerable 11numbers were 12brought to the Lord. 25And he left for 13Tarsus to look for Saul; 26and when he had found him, he brought him to 14Antioch. And for an entire year they 15met with the church and taught considerable 16numbers; and 17the disciples were first called 18Christians in 19Antioch.
