Acts 11:14

Salvation

12 The Spirit told me to accompany them without hesitation. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man’s home.

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

He will convey to you a message by which you and all your household will be saved.’

15 As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, just as He had fallen upon us at the beginning.

16 Then I remembered the word of the Lord, as He used to say, ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’
