In this episode, we continue our verse-by-verse study through **Acts 11**, where Peter explains why he entered the home of Gentiles and how God confirmed that salvation through Jesus Christ was available to them as well.
We also see the gospel continue to spread through persecution and the beginning of the influential church at Antioch.
In this study, we discuss:
* Peter being questioned for eating with Gentiles
* Peter recounting his vision and the conversion of Cornelius
* The Holy Spirit falling upon the Gentile believers
* God granting repentance that leads to life
* Why Peter concluded, “Who was I that I could stand in God’s way?”
* Persecution causing the gospel to spread even farther
* Barnabas encouraging the growing church in Antioch
* Saul joining Barnabas to teach the believers
* The disciples being called “Christians” for the first time
Acts 11 shows the gospel breaking through cultural and religious barriers as God continues building His Church among both Jews and Gentiles.
