INTRODUCTION. After restoring Tabitha (Dorcas) to life, Peter remained for many days

Then unexpectedly, a new and remarkable mission faced Peter-one so momentous it required a vision to prepare him to accept the task, for the Spirit directed Peter to preach to the Gentiles. Thus the scene of Luke's account of the early church turns to Caesarea and a Gentile named Cornelius (Acts 10).
