1Remind them to submit to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work,
2to slander no one, to avoid fighting, and to be kind, always showing gentleness to all people.
3For we too were once foolish, disobedient, deceived, enslaved by various passions and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, detesting one another.
4But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love for mankind appeared,
5he saved us  —not by works of righteousness that we had done, but according to his mercy  — through the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
6He poured out his Spirit on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior
7so that, having been justified by his grace, we may become heirs with the hope of eternal life.
8This saying is trustworthy. I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed God might be careful to devote themselves to good works. These are good and profitable for everyone.
9But avoid foolish debates, genealogies, quarrels, and disputes about the law, because they are unprofitable and worthless.
10Reject a divisive person after a first and second warning.
11For you know that such a person has gone astray and is sinning; he is self-condemned.

20But there were some of them, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, who came to Antioch and began speaking to the Greeks also, proclaiming the good news about the Lord Jesus.
21The Lord’s hand was with them, and a large number who believed turned to the Lord.

25Then he went to Tarsus to search for Saul,
26and when he found him he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught large numbers. The disciples were first called Christians at Antioch.
