Acts 10:41-48

41 not to all the people but to us who had been chosen beforehand by God [as] witnesses, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.

42 And he commanded us to preach to the people and to testify solemnly that this one is the one appointed by God [as] judge of the living and of the dead.

43 To this one all the prophets testify, [that] through his name everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins."

The Holy Spirit Given to Gentiles

44 [While] Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those who were listening to the message.

45 And those believers from the circumcision who had accompanied Peter were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles,

46 for they heard them speaking in tongues and glorifying God. Then Peter said,

47 "Surely no one can withhold the water for these [people] to be baptized, who have received the Holy Spirit as we also did!"

48 So he ordered [that] they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay for several days.
