Acts 11:22-26

22The 1news about them 2reached the ears of the church in 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 faith. And 1011considerable numbers were added to the Lord. 25And he left for 12Tarsus to look for Saul; 26and when he had found him, he brought him to 13Antioch. And for an entire year they 14met with the church and taught 15considerable numbers of people; and 16the disciples were first called 17Christians in 18Antioch.
