Acts 11:22-26 Well the report concerning them reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch.

WPNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² Well the report concerning them reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch. ²³ Upon arriving and seeing the grace of God, he was glad, and he kept encouraging them all to remain true to the Lord with purpose of heart ²⁴ (for he was a good man, full of Holy Spirit and of faith). And a considerable crowd was added to the Lord. ²⁵ Then Barnabas departed for Tarsus to look for Saul, ²⁶ and upon finding him he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for a whole year they met with the congregation and taught a great many people. The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
