Acts 11:26

Acts 11:26 (KJV)
26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.

Acts 11:15-18

Acts 11:15-18 (KJV)
15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning.
16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
17 Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?
18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.

The Church Then Compared To Now

Few people live for God as the early church did. Instead of being led by the Spirit, people are led by the things of this world.

God Loves All

To learn of God is a blessing. Each time I study the Bible my heart is overwhelmed by the Lord’s great love. I thank the Lord in prayer for showing such kindness to us all.
