Acts 11:12-18

12The Spirit told me to have no hesitation about going with them. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man’s house.

13He told us how he had seen an angel appear in his house and say, ‘Send to Joppa for Simon who is called Peter.

14He will bring you a message through which you and all your household will be saved.’

15“As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on them as he had come on us at the beginning.

16Then I remembered what the Lord had said: ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’

17So if God gave them the same gift he gave us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to think that I could stand in God’s way?”

18When they heard this, they had no further objections and praised God, saying, “So then, even to Gentiles God has granted repentance that leads to life.”
