Acts 11:20-26

20But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who on coming to Antioch spoke to the Hellenists
Or Greeks (that is, Greek-speaking non-Jews)
also, bpreaching the Lord Jesus.
21And cthe hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number who believed dturned to the Lord. 22The report of this came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. 23When he came and saw ethe grace of God, he was glad, and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord fwith steadfast purpose, 24for he was a good man, gfull of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people hwere added to the Lord. 25So Barnabas went to iTarsus to look for Saul, 26and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught a great many people. And in Antioch the disciples were first called jChristians.
