But the Lord said to Ananias,“ Go! I have chosen this man to work for me. He will announce my name to the Gentiles and to their kings. He will also announce my name to the people of Israel.

I was appointed to announce the good news. I was appointed to be an apostle and a teacher.

I speak the truth in Christ. I am not lying. My mind tells me that what I say is true. It is guided by the Holy Spirit.

I now serve the good news because God gave me his grace. His power is at work in me.I am by far the least important of all the Lord’s holy people. But he gave me the grace to preach to the Gentiles about the unlimited riches that Christ gives.

The Jews said to one another,“ Where does this man plan to go? Does he think we can’t find him? Will he go where our people live scattered among the Greeks? Will he go there to teach the Greeks?

True teaching agrees with the good news about the glory of the blessed God. He trusted me with that good news.I am thankful to Christ Jesus our Lord. He has given me strength. I thank him that he considered me faithful. I thank him for appointing me to serve him.

He is faithful and right in everything he does. All his rules can be trusted.

First I preached to people in Damascus. Then I preached in Jerusalem and in all Judea. And then I preached to the Gentiles. I told them to turn away from their sins to God. The way they live must show that they have turned away from their sins.

James, Peter and John are respected as pillars in the church. They recognized the special grace given to me. So they shook my hand and the hand of Barnabas. They wanted to show they accepted us. They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles. They would go to the Jews.

God did not spare the world’s ungodly people long ago. He brought the flood on them. But Noah preached about the right way to live. God kept him safe. He also saved seven others.

I am not lying. The God and Father of the Lord Jesus knows this. May God be praised forever.

to serve Christ Jesus among the Gentiles. I have the duty of a priest to preach God’s good news. Then the Gentiles will become an offering that pleases God. The Holy Spirit will make the offering holy.

“ Meaningless! Everything is meaningless!” says the Teacher.“ Nothing has any meaning.”The Teacher was wise. He gave knowledge to people. He tried out many proverbs. He thought about them carefully. Then he wrote them down in order.He did his best to find just the right words. And what he wrote was honest and true.

I will save you from your own people and from the Gentiles. I am sending you to themto open their eyes. I want you to turn them from darkness to light. I want you to turn them from Satan’s power to God. I want their sins to be forgiven. They will be forgiven when they believe in me. They will have their place among God’s people.’

These are the words of the Teacher. He was the son of David. He was also the king in Jerusalem.“ Meaningless! Everything is meaningless!” says the Teacher.“ Everything is completely meaningless! Nothing has any meaning.”

I am talking to you who are not Jews. I am the apostle to the Gentiles. So I take pride in the work I do for God and others.

When they arrived at Antioch, they gathered the church together. They reported all that God had done through them. They told how he had opened a way for the Gentiles to believe.

Here is what we know. No one is made right with God by obeying the law. It is by believing in Jesus Christ. So we too have put our faith in Christ Jesus. This is so we can be made right with God by believing in Christ. We are not made right by obeying the law. That’s because no one can be made right with God by obeying the law.

How can they call on him unless they believe in him? How can they believe in him unless they hear about him? How can they hear about him unless someone preaches to them?

to show his Son in my life. He wanted me to preach about Jesus among the Gentiles. When God appointed me, I decided right away not to ask anyone for advice.

So those who depend on faith are blessed along with Abraham. He was the man of faith.

Here is what you can be sure of. And God is even a witness to it. What I am writing you is not a lie.

I serve God with my whole heart. I preach the good news about his Son. God knows that I always remember you

“ Look,” says the Teacher.“ Here’s what I’ve discovered.“ I added one thing to another to find out everything I could about wisdom.

I, the Teacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem.

“ Then the Lord said to me,‘ Go. I will send you far away to people who are not Jews.’ ”
