Acts 11:15-18

When I began my speech, the Holy Spirit came on them just as he came on us at the beginning. Then I remembered the words of the Lord. He said, ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’ Since God gave them the same gift he gave us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, how could I stop the work of God?” When the believers heard this, they stopped arguing. They praised God and said, “So God is allowing even other nations to turn to him and live.”
