011:019 Those, however, who had been driven in various directions by the persecution which broke out on account of Stephen made their way to Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, delivering the Message to none but Jews. 011:020 But some of them were Cyprians and Cyrenaeans, who, on coming to Antioch, spoke to the Greeks also and told them the Good News concerning the Lord Jesus. 011:021 The power of the Lord was with them, and there were a vast number who believed and turned to the Lord. 011:022 When tidings of this reached the ears of the Church in Jerusalem, they sent Barnabas as far as Antioch. 011:023 On getting there he was delighted to see the grace which God had bestowed; and he encouraged them all to remain, with fixed resolve, faithful to the Lord. 011:024 For he was a good man, and was full of the Holy Spirit and of faith; and the number of believers in the Lord greatly increased. 011:025 Then Barnabas paid a visit to Tarsus to try to find Saul. 011:026 He succeeded, and brought him to Antioch; and for a whole year they attended the meetings of the Church, and taught a large number of people. And it was in Antioch that the disciples first received the name of `Christians.' 011:027 At that time certain Prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch, 011:028 one of whom, named Agabus, being instructed by the Spirit, publicly predicted the speedy coming of a great famine throughout the world. (It came in the reign of Claudius.) 011:029 So the disciples decided to send relief, every one in proportion to his means, to the brethren living in Judaea. 011:030 This they did, forwarding their contributions to the Elders by Barnabas and Saul. 012:001 Now, about that time, King Herod arrested certain members of the Church, in order to ill-treat them; 012:002 and James, John's brother, he beheaded. 012:003 Finding that this gratified the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also; these being the days of Unleavened Bread. 012:004 He had him arrested and lodged in jail, handing him over to the care of sixteen soldiers; and intended after the Passover to bring him out again to the people. 012:005 So Peter was kept in prison; but long and fervent prayer was offered to God by the Church on his behalf. 012:006 Now when Herod was on the point of taking him out of prison, that very night Peter was asleep between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and guards were on duty outside the door. 012:007 Suddenly an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell; and, striking Peter on the side, he woke him and said, "Rise quickly." Instantly the chains dropped off his wrists.
