2. Now the apostles and the brothers who were
throughout Judea heard that the Gen4les also had
received the word of God. So when Peter went up
to Jerusalem, the circumcision party cri4cized him,
saying, “You went to uncircumcised men and ate
with them.” But Peter began and explained it to
them in order: “I was in the city of Joppa praying,
and in a trance I saw a vision, something like a great
sheet descending, being let down from heaven by
its four corners, and it came down to me. Looking at
it closely, I observed animals and beasts of prey and
rep4les and birds of the air.
3. And I heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter; kill
and eat.’ But I said, ‘By no means, Lord; for
nothing common or unclean has ever entered
my mouth.’ But the voice answered a second
4me from heaven, ‘What God has made clean,
do not call common.’ This happened three
4mes, and all was drawn up again into heaven.
And behold, at that very moment three men
arrived at the house in which we were, sent to
me from Caesarea.
4. And the Spirit told me to go with them, making
no dis4nc4on. These six brothers also
accompanied me, and we entered the man's
house. And he told us how he had seen the
angel stand in his house and say, ‘Send to Joppa
and bring Simon who is called Peter; he will
declare to you a message by which you will be
saved, you and all your household.’
5. As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them
just as on us at the beginning. And I
remembered the word of the Lord, how he said,
‘John bap4zed with water, but you will be
bap4zed with the Holy Spirit.’ If then God gave
the same giT to them as he gave to us when we
believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that
I could stand in God's way?”
6. When they heard these things they fell silent.
And they glorified God, saying, “Then to the
Gen4les also God has granted repentance that
leads to life.”
Acts 11:1-‐18 (ESV)
7. While Peter was s4ll saying these things, the
Holy Spirit fell on all who heard the word. And
the believers from among the circumcised who
had come with Peter were amazed, because the
giT of the Holy Spirit was poured out even on
the Gen4les. For they were hearing them
speaking in tongues and extolling God.
8. Then Peter declared, “Can anyone withhold
water for bap4zing these people, who have
received the Holy Spirit just as we have?” And
he commanded them to be bap4zed in the
name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to
remain for some days.
Acts 10:44-‐48 (ESV)
9. Peter’s example:
• Make it a priority to hear from God.
• Make it a priority to obey instantly, without
ques4oning.
• ATer we’ve heard, as we obey, make it a
priority to get out of the way and follow God,
no maZer HOW He chooses to move.
