Gen Z: Acts 11
1The apostles and fam in Judea heard that the Gentiles got the word of God too. Vibes.
2When Peter rolled up to Jerusalem, the peeps who were all about that circumcision were lowkey beefing with him.
3They were like, "You legit went to uncircumcised dudes and ate with them, no cap!"
4But Peter broke it down from the start, laying it out for them, saying,
5"I was in Joppa, praying, and had this wild vision—saw a vessel come down, like a huge sheet, straight from heaven by four corners; it came right to me."
6When I locked eyes on it, I saw all kinds of four-legged animals, wild beasts, creepy crawlies, and birds flying.
7Then I heard a voice say, "Yo, Peter; get up, slay, and eat!"
8But I was like, "Nah, Lord; I ain't eating anything common or unclean, fr."
9The voice hit me back from heaven, "What God has cleansed, don’t you call common."
10This happened three times, and then everything was pulled back up into heaven.
11So, like, outta nowhere, three dudes rolled up to my crib, sent from Cesarea, no cap.
12The spirit was like, "Go with them, no doubt," and I had six homies with me as we stepped into the dude's place.
13He showed us how he saw an angel in his pad, standing there saying, "Send dudes to Joppa, and hit up Simon, aka Peter."
14He's gonna drop some knowledge that’ll save you and your whole squad.
15As I started speaking, the Holy Ghost just dropped on them, just like it did with us at the start.
16Then I remembered what the Lord said, how John was all about that water baptism, but we’re getting baptized with the Holy Ghost, fr.
17Since God gave them the same gift as us who believed in Jesus, like, who am I to stand against God?
18When they heard this, they were shook and praised God, saying, "God's also giving the Gentiles a chance to vibe with life."
19The ones scattered by the drama around Stephen went all the way to Phenice, Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching only to the Jews, savage.
20Some of them were from Cyprus and Cyrene, and when they hit Antioch, they started preaching about the Lord Jesus to the Grecians.
21The Lord was totally vibing with them, and a bunch of peeps believed and turned to the Lord, no cap.
22Word got back to the church in Jerusalem, and they were like, "Yo, send Barnabas to Antioch, ASAP."
23When he showed up and saw God's grace, he was hyped and told everyone to stick with the Lord for real.
24Dude was a good guy, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a whole squad joined the Lord because of him.
25Then Barnabas dipped to Tarsus to find Saul, bet.
26When he found him, he brought him to Antioch. They kicked it with the church for a whole year, teaching a lot of people. That’s when they first called the disciples Christians in Antioch.
27During those days, prophets rolled in from Jerusalem to Antioch.
28One of them, Agabus, stood up and said by the Spirit that a major famine was coming worldwide, which hit during Claudius Caesar's reign.
29So the disciples, each according to their vibe, decided to send help to their peeps in Judea.
30And they actually did it, sending it to the elders through Barnabas and Saul.
