Acts 11:14

Compare all

12 Then ^athe Spirit told me to go with them, doubting nothing. Moreover ^bthese six brethren accompanied me, and we entered the man’s house.

13 ^aAnd he told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house, who said to him, ‘Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon whose surname is Peter,

14 who will tell you words by which you and all your household will be saved.’

15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, ^aas upon us at the beginning.

16 Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how He said, ^a‘John indeed baptized with water, but ^byou shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’

17 ^aIf therefore God gave them the same gift as He gave us when we believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, ^bwho was I that I could withstand God?”

18 When they heard these things they became silent; and they glorified God, saying, ^a“Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life.”

Acts 11:14

Thou and all thy house shall be saved - This is an additional circumstance: before, it was said, Acts 10:6, Peter shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do; and, in Acts 10:33, who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee. But, in Peter' s relation, the matter is more explicitly declared, he shall tell thee words whereby thou and thy house shall be saved. He shall announce to you all the doctrine of salvation.
