Acts 11:22-26

New King James Version

²² Then news of these things came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent out ^(A)Barnabas to go as far as Antioch. ²³ When he came and had seen the grace of God, he was glad, and ^(B)encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord. ²⁴ For he was a good man, ^(C)full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. ^(D)And a great many people were added to the Lord.

²⁵ Then Barnabas departed for ^(E)Tarsus to seek Saul. ²⁶ And when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for a whole year they assembled with the church and taught a great many people. And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
