This household of Cornelius to whom Peter preached, the Thessalonians and Corinthians to whom Paul preached and the scattered strangers who received the Gospel with the Holy Spirit sent down from Heaven and hosts more not mentioned were all baptized with the Holy Spirit through Gospel preaching as Christ intended when he commanded his apostles.
Go teach all nations, baptizing.[250]
Go preach the Gospel to every creature.[251]
Preach among all nations.[252]
As my Father hath sent me even so I send you.[253]
Ye shall be witnesses unto me to the uttermost parts of the earth.[254]
Preach unto the people.[255]
Preach the Gospel.[256]
But tarry ye at Jerusalem until endued with power from on high.[257]
Wait in Jerusalem for the promise of the Father which said he ye have heard of me.[258]
